I bought mine on amazon in France (sold by some other company but shipped by amazon).
Thanks for the lead. It appears also on Amazon Spain at just 160€. Are you happy with it ?

I think the reason is that they want separate pages by countries, not by languages. For instance, they have three different pages in Spanish (Spain, Mexico, Uruguay).
Things like that always bug me. What if I live in Spain and only speak English. What if I live in a Catalan region and want Catalan? What if I live in GB and want to read it in Spanish as it's my first language? With the world being as global as it is and people readily moving around, geographic location does not equal language preference. Ideally the site would have geographic specific sections but allow all languag…
Perhaps the mods can change the URL to show the English version of the site, rather than the Spanish version? http://www.bq.com/gb/ubuntu.html

What gets me is Amazon. I'd love to be able to see the Germany (country) site in English. Right now trying to return a tablet that went bad, and google trans is of limited help.
Other companies are MUCH worse. Apple and Google being good examples. Try either being in the US or having a US credit card and purchasing in the EU. Nightmare!
Anyone know whether there's an easy way to get root? Is there a Terminal app with a local shell? I'm in the US, so I can't get this one, but these are what I'm hoping for when it gets here.

It would be quite a bit of work, to attend a very limited use case. Every Catalan (or Galician, Valencian, Basque) speaks Spanish, as do the vast majority of the expats I know (and I'm one myself). You can still access the specific site of the language you are interested in. Or, in the worst case, use Google translate.
I've been doing eCommerce for a long time now and the number of site that realize this is shockingly limited.
With a few exceptions, the translations you are using for a country website's language are possible to use for any country where a visitor wants to use the language. Exceptions include things like country specific product features and such. Those kinds of things would need a little though.
The data is all there and the tech is all there. It's just a desire or realization that is missing.
I have this phone since around 20th of March and like it really very much. The Terminal app is hilarious. I was pleased to find much more stuff in the Ubuntu store than expected. Telephony is perfect. The one thing I do not like is the runtime of the battery. 44 hours was the absolute maximum I had this phone running before it went black (just turning it on, entering the SIM-PIN, having Bluetooth, GPS and WiFi turned…
I think it's typical for a good smartphone to have to load it every day. I recharge my S4 at night and then still have to boost it up at work. Mobile data is a power hog.
Sometimes I come in and crash without putting it on the charger and realize what I've done the next morning. When that happens, I don't have to worry about immediately charging it even then; usually it still can make it to the end of that day (business hours) without being on a charger. This happens around once a week or so, maybe more sometimes.
I'm on my second Moto G, and this has been true for both, so it's not a one-off thing.
Too bad, LTE 4G not supported :(
Honest question here: what does anyone need 4g for? On HSPA+ (H+) my connection is fast enough for any purpose besides downloading movies, and it's not like I've got unlimited data. Even 3g's theoretical speed is great if they could get that to work for a change. I have 4g on a company laptop and the speed is better than many places' WiFi, but I have yet to find an excuse to use it ( someone has to pay that data bill…
