But that was Google's whole point with this launch. They didn't hype it or advertise it, because they are not setup to do support for this. It was mainly hyped by tech bloggers with leaks and rumors.
Maybe your right..maybe your wrong..nobody knows besides Google, why would they develop and put money towards a hot seller, only to sell it online and knowingly not advertise it for fear of their support not being able to handle it?
Where is the sense in that for a company wanting to make back their money that they put into it? I believe either Google will start letting phone carriers carry their phone + them or totally revamp their Google store with possibly some TV ads. (Which would be a first) But a very smart move.

Just look up the stories that were out a week after launch about how bad their service was. They didn't plan on having to service hundreds of thousands of users, so they didn't advertise like Verizon did with the Droid.
Wrong.
They didn't foresee the problems that the Nexus One propped up with as no company would. Until the product is out in the wild with more people using it.

Not to mention, the phone is only available online, from Google, so obviously, this is only really going to reach the "nerdy tech geek."
Which is where Google failed. I'll let you in on a secret..Google is in this race for dominance and money.

They sold a great number of these having no advertising and them only being available from one place.
Yes they did do good considering there was no advertising besides Google's website or ads, BUT it still did horribly compared to the Droid..and that is a weaker phone.
