A new Android 2.1 update for Nexus One has been leaked. If you were hoping for Flash Player in this build, you will be disappointed as Flash isn’t included in this build. It does give some performance improvements, but not by much.

Google has announced that its Nexus One smartphone will be up-graded.

The new up-grade will include multi-touch capabilities, enabling the phone to work in a similar way to Apple’s iPhone, in that users can pinch their fingers to zoom in and out. A feature that other smartphones such as the Palm Pre already came installed with.

The new up-grade will also include additional software improvements and fixes to technical bugs. It will tackle some of the commonly complained about 3G problems.

One of the software improvements is to the Maps application, making it a lot easier for users to save places of interest and revisit them at a later date. The maps application will also be enriched with a night mode, which will automatically adjust the users screen if they are viewing maps in the dark.

The up-dates can be downloaded directly onto the Nexus One via the phone’s internet, without having to go into a store or onto a computer.

While other goodies/phones/Googly stuff might await us, TMONEWS managed to take a peek around the Nexus One support page link. Originally discovered before the New Year, the link had originally taken us to a dead page. Now, we see that the page is live though surprisingly with a video of Android 2.0, not 2.1 as the Nexus One is set to release with. Unfortunately for those of you who might have been hoping for a surprise in the pricing, the Terms of Sale page are exactly what we have already seen and read.

However the page is now down again.

It looks like one of the members at XDA has his hands on the Google Nexus One and you know what that means… T-R-O-U-B-L-E. And that spells awesome if you’re an Android fan. One of the coolest cosmetic things to come out of it is the video that plays when you turn your Nexus One on:
