The first unboxing pictures of the upcoming Google Nexus One phone has been leaked via djrobrob on twitter. The design of the box is very Google-like with white background color, and “Nexus One” and “Google” branding in black to go on top of it.

Remember the Multifl0w app for iPhone which we posted about last month?

Motorola Droid on Verizon Wireless in US doesn't support multitouch functionality in most apps even though the hardware is fully capable of running it.
