I’ve been rather fascinated by the Google Nexus One developments over the past couple days, today especially. The latest to leak onto the web is pricing which we’ve all been anxiously waiting for. According to a Gizmodo tipster, the Nexus One will be sold directly from Google for $530 unsubsidized and unlocked. A subsidized version will require a mandatory 2-year contract with T-Mobile that will set you back $180 for the phone and a $79.99 per month monthly fee for the Even More Individual 500 Plan. The rumored car docking station and desktop docking stationwill cost $50 and $40, respectively.
Other details revealed by Gizmodo include:
- existing customers have to switch to the one plan if they want the subsidized version of the Nexus One
- subscribers of Family plans, Flexpay, SmartAccess and KidConnect have to buy the $530 version
- each Google account can buy a maximum of 5 Nexus One mobile phones
- it can be shipped outside of the United States
- it will be sold as the Nexus One, and not the Google Phone, at http://www.google.com/phone
- and finally, if you cancel your plan before 120 days you’ll have to pay the difference between the subsided and unsubsidized prices or $350. This can be charged directly to your credit card or you can return the phone to Google.
