Rogers has made some changes to their hardware upgrade program (HUP) that is effective today. The note we received is that “Rogers customers will now be eligible for the same pricing as new customers on all devices at 24 months since initial activation or last upgrade.

Any upgrades are still subject to a lovely $35 administration fee, but the nuts and bolts of it is that it’s faster to upgrade to a new device, it just depends on which new category you choose. Rogers has created 5 “device categories” that consist of: voice (classic phones); quick messaging devices; BlackBerry; other smartphones; and iPhone

Rogers states that:

all customers will be eligible for an upgrade to select basic voice phones at a discount after 12 months, and our full range of devices including higher-end smart phones after 24 months. What’s new is that customers with a higher average monthly spend may be eligible for smartphones even sooner.

If Steve Jobs is able to praise and a diode to turn it into a successful product, the other co-founder of Apple (Steve Wozniak), now busy with other projects not related to the company in Cupertino, expresses sincere opinion about gadgets . In an online interview with NBC Bay Area, confessed that his favorite is Google phone Nexus One and not the iPhone.

The statement, although some shocked (particularly in terms of war Apple – Google), is the natural result of series of criticisms made Apple since the emergence of the first iPhone. It was criticized because of lack of 3G connectivity and the lack of good support for developers. However, Wozniak has admitted that two such specimens, in addition to a Motorola Droid, a BlackBerry and Google’s new Nexus One obvious.

Many analysts have predicted Google’s Nexus One would sell between 5 and 6 million units by the end of 2010. According to data from app analytics firm Flurry, only about 20,000 Nexus Ones were sold in the first week since launch, January 5 through January 12.

Compared to the 250,000 Motorola Droids or the 1.5 million iPhone 3GS’s this figure is clearly a low number. Granted we can’t always trust third party analytics (which is exactly why we’re filing this under ‘Rumors’), data from Flurry still supported a much larger first week by the Droid and iPhone 3GS. When you consider Google did their best to keep the device a secret and really hasn’t explored much in the way of advertising outside of their website and own ad network, there is still a large potential for the device to grow. I think the tell-all sign of the Nexus One will come when the device launches officially on Verizon since T-mobile is still the smallest of the big four US carriers.
