hi guys and girls i have just seen this ( Google Nexus 4 now available for $199 and up ($100 price cut) ) trying very hard to convince the wife to buy one looking at the specs it is awesome
@adem
I’ve seen this too, and it’s nice, but only available in 5 or 6 countries…
i was reminded how often we (Australians)get ripped off buy the big boys google and apple in the us its $199 and Australia $249 why i don’t understand even iTunes and apps are more expansive in Australia when compared to every one else but still the price on this is awesome specs krait 300 (like cortex-a15) adreno 320 i know you cannot compare to the new lg g2 but for the price and what it can do its awesome and a must get. i also made a you tube video about iam new to making videos but its fun http://youtu.be/lKhs-wCak2I
where about are you dood if you are a dood if not iam sorry @Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft)
@adem
I’m a man, and I’m in Thailand. 🙂
thats cool i would love to go there one day and i would be pissed off too if google did not include my country
I’m live in Spain, one of the countries where the Nexus 4 sells. Here the price now is 199€ (yes one more time $1=1€) plus 9,9€ for shipping for the version with 8G of storage.
I know several people that had bought this phone recently for a price of 299€. For who that had bought it later than 17 of August, google has offered a refund.
i just did the currency conversion and $199 = 150.26€ so you guys got screwed just as much as us i dont understand when you say $1=1€
adem when a company announce a new product, with a price in american dollars and it reaches Europe, in almost every ocasion the conversion are $1=1€. I understand that those conversion includes higher taxes that are aplicable in Europe, for example in Spain the tax rate are 21%.

And every company set the price of is products think how much they customers can pay.
i imagine its the same for us then
