https://play.google.com/store/devices gives "We're sorry, the document you requested is not available in your country." Ouch.

When I go to the link in the article I get the famous "We're sorry, the document you requested is not available in your country." from the Play Store.

I encounter this page so often it's not even funny anymore.

Even worse, google keeps sending me emails about music albums in the Play Store and all the links in these emails show me this error.

Well, there is a small disclaimer on the page that says Currently only available in the USA. Not that it justifies completely blocking the page.

And thus my paranoia about buying a new phone is justified - my 14 day "free to cancel" period with Verizon just ended, and now this is announced.

I was one of the (few?) people who bought the original Nexus direct from Google and haven't regretted it. While I fully support their efforts, I would love more insight into the relationship their direct phone sales will have with their motorola division.

Now it's pretty obvious what everyone going to Google I/O will get...

Wow. I ordered an HTC One S a few days ago but it hasn't shipped yet. It was $549- $399 is a lower enough price that it is sorely tempting. And it's a Nexus device. The only issue I have is the size of the thing.

Hmm. Are there any GNexus owners our there that can tell us about the size of the device? It's the one real sticking point I have with it.

EDIT: For anyone else that's wondering, I looked up the refund policy. They pay return shipping, but you pay a 15% restocking fee- $60, pre-tax.
