All of us have plans to buy one or other smartphone soon or later. If Nexus One is the one in your list, better act fast. Google has confirmed that they will be selling the last batch of Nexus Ones soon. And there after Nexus One will be available via partners. So go get one while the stock lasts. Once this batch is sold out, the web store is done with selling phones.
The word came on Friday on the official Nexus One blog. Google says the last shipment has arrived, and once those units are gone you cant buy a Nexus One from Google anymore. Support stays on for current owners, so dont panic. Vodafone in Europe and KT in Korea will keep selling it, and more may follow depending on the local market.
From Google it has been $529 unlocked, or $179 on a T-Mobile contract in the US. Back in May itself Google said it would stop selling handsets online and keep the store as a showcase for Android phones. Andy Rubin called it a “niche channel for early adopters”. Developers can still buy one through the Android Market Publisher site via a partner, so you get a phone with the latest Android on it. Stay tuned.
