Google's Nexus One sold only 20,000 during its first week

Google’s Nexus One didn’t have an extremely good first week. According to Flurry, a mobile application analytics firm, Google sold only 20,000 Nexus Ones during the first week. This is three times lower than what T-Mobile’s myTouch sold, twelve times lower than the Droid, and a whopping eighty times lower than the iPhone 3GS.

This sounds pretty low, but I don’t think this should be compared to for instance the iPhone. The iPhone was launched in eight countries simultaneously, and it was not the first generation of the phone. Also, another fact that could cause so bad sales, is that Google’s Nexus One wasn’t exactly the first phone to run on Android(OK, it was the first phone to run on Android 2.1).
