Following Steve's death on thursday evening, Apple's major rivals Google and Samsung announced the very next day that the launch of their latest new Nexus phone will be delayed due to the grave news of Steve. They told when the whole world is in deep sorrow, this is not surely the right time to launch a phone, which is a new product of the same line up, to which Steve Jobs has contributed his best of the lot.

While asking about stages of development and if the product is ready, Google Spokesman said that product is ready and well set to be released as announced earlier i.e. on Tuesday 11th of Oct, and the only reason why we are delaying the launch event is the grave news of Steve's death from which the whole world is yet to recover.

As we know, Google was to launch its new Nexus Phone which will be the first ever model with a curved touch screen and running on the latest Icecream Sandwich version of Android. Of course this is going to be major launch from Google and this surely is not the right time to launch an innovative model of smartphone when the person who changed the way smartphones operate died days ago.
