Google Is Being Sued By Nexus One Owners

Google is being sued by Plaintiff Nathan Nabors of Florida. Part of the lawsuit is a breach of contract from failure to maintain 3G connectivity and violated the Communications Act. The class action lawsuit will cover anyone from Florida and California that purchased the Nexus One through Google since January. At this time HTC (the manufacturer), and T-Mobile (the network), are not listed as being involved in the case.
TechCrunch said, “The suit says Google basically failed to warn customers they would not receive faster 3G connectivity, even in areas where T-Mobile USA said such coverage was available. In addition, customer support from Google, to which T-Mobile referred customers with 3G connectivity issues, came up short. Breach of warranty claims aside, the suit also says Google violated the Communications Act by making false and misleading claims about the Nexus One.”
Google has been reached by TechCrunch, who first relayed the story, but at this time no further information is available at this time.
On a personal note, I’m wondering If HTC and T-Mobile will get hit with this lawsuit.

@Wallingsworth
If this lawsuit is one then I think so. It could be a while before this case gets in court IF it gets in court and thats a big if.

Ever since the latest froyo update. The 3g issue is completely gone. I live in Philadelphia and I do have faster 3g because of living here.
