Just because they’re gouging people on Ebay doesn’t make it okay to charge that much in other places. I can pick on up on Craigslist for $425 or, alternately, I can simply wait until they come back in stock at the Play Store, which will happen. People who pay that much for a phone they can get for $399 should probably just throw the money in their fireplace and use it to warm their house.

Best Buy has a history of charging ridiculous amounts for off-contract phones, but this takes the cake. Usually, they’re only about $100 more.

It wasn’t the best. Sometimes in downtown it would be great, but when you’d go into the mall or any tall building you would be screwed.

If I port my current Verizon number to Google voice isn’t Ver. gonna scream bloody murder since I’m still under contract? I certainly do want to keep my current number somehow and I have a G voice account, not sure how all that works tho.

The phone is still unlocked iirc. If anyone that has one can verify, that’d be awesome.

Somewhere there’s a Verizon troll about to say something about LTE or coverage.

I’m jumping ship once I get my tax return, hopefully N4 stock replenishes by then.

Should see the ebay prices on a nexus 4, saw one go for $800

All I can say is that the Nexus 5 will sell like hot cakes, hopefully it’ll be produced in the millions

T-MO is great. No, it’s coverage for extreme rural areas is not as good as Verizon’s. My contract with Verizon expired last month (I had a GNEX), so I purchased a GSM GNEX because the N4 wasn’t available. I couldn’t be happier. No contract, and I pay $40 less each month. Gee, I wonder if I made the right decision…

Agreed dude. It just seems like buying this phone on contract defeats the whole purpose. People just need to wait it out. The phone will be available again soon. Google will be hurting themselves if it isn’t.

Then you keep that number forever no matter what phone or carrier you use, you just set up google voice to handle the calling

Verizon has retail stores that sell at the online price, google does not. bestbuy will match retail locations within 25 miles of the store you go to, or if online, 25 miles from your billing address
