Shipments of the CDMA variant of the Nexus One headed to Verizon?

There’s no questioning at this point that the Verizon Wireless version of the Nexus One will make its appearance to customers shortly, but there is still uncertainty about where will it be sold. Undoubtedly it’d be a no brainer to see it head on over to Google’s online store like how the current T-Mobile version is offered, but there were rumors of it also being sold in Verizon retail stores nationwide. Although Verizon’s own updated Equipment Guide page now happily shows a non-Sense UI Nexus One, it clearly remarks how it’ll only be available through Google’s online store. The latest news points to a different story as the Chinese language Economic Daily News is reporting that HTC has commenced shipping out the CDMA variant of the Nexus One to Verizon Wireless – with an estimated availability date to the masses some time this month or in early April. With rumors about Verizon employees getting trained on the handset not too long ago, it was most likely accomplished to get them up to speed if it does indeed end up being sold through its stores. With fingers pointing in both directions, the guess of how it’ll be sold is still up in the air with no official confirmation.
