http://www.priceusa.com.au/ I'm not even in/from Australia, but have used them a couple of times, including for 2 macs and a nexus 4. Highly recommended.
You can buy it from the play store in Australia. The price discount is there in AUD too
I provided an option for those people.
And this is why I love living in a 3rd world country (Sweden): Sorry! Devices on Google Play is not available in your country yet. We're working to bring devices to more countries as quickly as possible. Please check back again soon.

Did you read the original post? It's by someone from somewhere in the world where the Play store isn't available. I provided an option for those people.
He was just clarifying this.

There won't be a Nexus 5. It will be titled "Nexus 4" again. The number refers to the size, not the iteration. The second-gen Nexus 7 which just made a debut kept the same name. Same will likely apply to the next-generation Nexus 10 as well.
Honestly I wish they changed the name. Shopping for a Nexus 7 online or in stores is not friendly to the regular population. I'm pretty sure I know what I'm doing and even I'm not 100% certain a Nexus 7 on any site (besides play.google.com) is the new refresh model or the older one. That said, they should avoid the naming scheme of the galaxy line (e.g. Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0).
eg: Nexus 7 (2013).
Some retailers do this but a lot of them dont

Yup. I upgraded to a Nexus 4 from a Nexus S recently and the Nexus 4 is a much nicer device and the Android experience is great: fast, smooth & pretty. It has to be hands down the best value smartphone on the market at this price (it was already great value at $100 more).
Best value of well known brands perhaps. You get various Chinese brand ~5" phones with 1920x1080 resolution, 16GB ROM for that price or less now. And those are typicall dual sim, and take 32GB SD-cards too. Build quality for most of them are probably not as quite high as the Nexus 4, but the one I have at least is very well built.

Also DONT BUY THE WIRELESS CHARGER. It is a joke, the phone might stick to it the first time you use it, if you're lucky. The only thing keeping the above mentioned slippery phone on the un-necessarily slanted charger is some slick rubber material. The rubber holds dust like a pro, but alas cannot grip the phone. If you don't believe me read Amazon reviews: http://www.amazon.com/Google-Nexus-4-Wireless-Charger/dp/B00…
low tech solution: wrap your charger with clingwrap. glass + clingwrap creates a magical bond
I knew my colleague is looking for a mobile as he lost his one last weekend. He wants a mid range one as he keeps losing/breaking his mobile! I told him about this one but he had already ordered one yesterday. Well, he cancelled his order and has now placed the order for Nexus 4!

If you buy this phone, get a case for it. The thing slides off of pretty much anything, including apparently flat counter tops. Screen replacements are $130 and take 2 weeks. You won't get the awesome feel of the beveled edges, or the nice solid feeling of a thin but reasonably weighted piece of equipment, but definitely get a case lest you watch in horror as your shiny new phone crashes onto your hard tile bathroom…
Haha, guess who just broke their screen last week and bought a replacement at the old price. Didn't slide off anything though, I dropped it pretty harshly onto some concrete.
