Nearly a dozen photos of the Google Phone, or as it’s formally known as, the Nexus One, has been posted online.

The photos, posted on Engadget, show that the Smartphone comes with only four buttons which are touch sensitive. The phone has a new grid icon at the bottom of the home screen, which when pressed brings up a webOS card-style preview of all home screen pages, according to the post.

Earlier today, the Federal Communications Commission approved HTC Corp's (the Google phone manufacturer's) request for the Nexus One phone.
