When you, yes you, purchased a Nexus One, you expected Google to shove the latest Android release onto your device as soon as humanly or Androidededly possible, and that is exactly what’s going to happen, as long as it’s not delayed by Vodafone. Android Central wrote up in a post that Android Developer, Reto Meier, Tweeted today that the Nexus One is getting the update in a ‘few weeks’.
I think it’s safe to say it might not make it to you in time for Christmas, but if it does, Google has your present all wrapped up. We’ve reached out to Vodafone for any comments on the update availability.

So why the delay?!?! I’d rather not root my N1, but I will if Voda are too lazy to push out updates. It’d be awesome if Android Australia could get some info… Read more »
I’m sure it would be delayed further from VF, so if necessary I’ll root (firmware void) and flash the stock google firmware to my nexus.
