#62Earlier quoted context omitted.
I'm having a hard time finding the specifics on this. Do you know if this is due to it not supporting Verizon's CDMA/LTE bands, or due to a bureaucratic/carrier certification issue? It looks to me like LTE on Verizon wouldn't be supported (bands 4 and 13), but technical CDMA should work?
Part of the problem is since Verizon is CDMA and there's not really SIM cards, they can just say: "Your ESN doesn't look like a device we want to support, you can't activate it, sucks to be you"
This is completely false. Verizon uses SIM cards for many devices.

#63Can anyone verify that the Nexus 5 won't work with Verizon? I thought I saw support for VZ's LTE bands but maybe I misunderstood?
It has the frequency support of 0,1, and 4 in LTE. No 13.
It will likely not work on Verizon regardless of the radio, though, because Verizon doesn't want it on their network.
Re: Nexus 5
#64So, have they completely dropped the n4? Did they clear them out at the old low price?
I think Nexus 4 has been out of stock in most countries for a while now

#654.95" 1920x1080 display (445 ppi), it reads. Does those specs make this phone the one with highest DPI ever? It is certainly above retina display, right?
That's almost identical to the Galaxy S4, 441ppi

#67As an African/Nigerian I am not even allowed to see what it looks like. Talk less of trying to make a purchase [1]. Last Night, I had to lie that I am in the US so I would be allowed to by Remote by 37Signals on my kindle. Quite ridiculous and annoying. http://imgur.com/eS8agor
You can use a proxy http://6.hidemyass.com/ip-1/encoded/czovL3BsYXkuZ29vZ2xlLmNv... . I'm in south america and they also disallow it here
Wow, and it's sold out already.

#69It seems like they are "metering" the sales by making them available at a certain rate.
When I first went to the play store site, it showed "sold out". Later on, I refreshed the page randomly and it showed the price tag button which lets you order. I tried to order it, but by the time I got to the checkout page it showed my shopping cart as empty. Going back to the front page showed "sold out again".
I waited a while, reloaded once in a while until I saw the price button again, and clicked through really fast to the checkout screen and I was able to purchase one.
Your mileage may vary.

#70It's quite depressing that a 350$ phone will probably translate to 460€ in Belgium and the Netherlands. That's 626$ if you use the official exchange course between euro's and dollars. We don't have phones on Google Play. EDIT: Strike that, it's dropped to 399€, that's still 543$.
I'm getting 349€ from France.
On the Play store probably, which doesn't sell physical devices here.
