With the release of Google’s Galaxy Nexus by Samsung tomorrow on Verizon, I couldn’t have pointed it out better myself than Daring Fireball‘s Mr. John Gruber:

…The 2008 G1 had a hardware keyboard; a hardware up/down/left/right controller for moving the insertion point in text and navigating menus; dedicated hardware buttons for Menu, Home, Search, and Back; and SD card storage expansion. All of these things were held up by some critics as advantages against the iPhone. Today’s Galaxy Nexus has none of these things.
