Admittedly I was also surprised about the fan noise. The Pixel was supposed to be a flagship model, showing OEM companies what is possible to do on the platform, if that is the case fan noise is a major bugaboo on my spec sheet. Earth, not so much, that will be rectified over time.
Also, in my experience fans tend to suck in a lot of, I believe the scientific term is, crud, over time. It will be interesting to follow mgmueller's reporting here. These are the things that never show up on spec sheets.
