Google’s Nexus One has experienced a hugely disappointing US launch, according to stats gathered by mobile analytics firm Flurry.

Meanwhile, The Nexus One’s closest Android-powered rival, Motorola’s Droid, which is sold as the Milestone in the UK, achieved 1.05 million sales in the space of 74 days.

The Nexus One will be available in the UK in mid-April.
