Sigh, time to again find ways around Google's stupid decision not to allow everyone buy from Google Play Store. Come on google, us Swedes love new tech and gadgets. Open up the Google Play Store for us too.

Not sure what you mean. I can buy Kindle from Amazon (but weirdly only from Amazon.com, not UK), I can buy all sorts of gadgets via Amazon, Expansys, Apple etc. etc. so I do not see any reason for google NOT to start offer this to Sweden and other countries especially since they now are offering it to Uk, France, Germany and Spain ...

I'm heading to CES though in January so I can pick one up there or get my uncle in Germany to buy one for me I guess ... except he isn't the most tech-savy so to get him to get a Google account is not easy ...

Though I live in the US, I thought that 3 was carrying the Nexus 4 in Sweden (for like 4595 Kronors or something). That's high compared to Google Play price though. That's like around $800 US dollars if my calculations are correct! Damn. I'm glad I'm in Texas.

You could _try_ to return it? Don't distance selling regs mean you can do that if you're quick?

I could try..but I got it in Malaysia and returning things policy isn't that common, it's been officially released here recently, and until the 32gb comes around its also going to lag compared to US. Also officially here its actually 350 USD instead of 250. Different worlds we live in :/.

this r scary times.. each compnies are out for our money.. one product after other is being launched.. so many new categories have been launched.. smart phone, phablet, tablet, tablet mini.. things sometimes u dont need.. things which u buy n get out dated within 6 months.. i mean this a mad war between google n apple to prove who is better than other.. i know the end result will be good for the consumers when u have so much variety to choose from. but if i m buyin something i dont want it to b out dated in 6 months or so. if this continues soon or later ppl will get fed up b'coz every month or week each company will launch something new n out class the other n we will feel we missed out on something.

The next big thing is always coming out every six months true. But the power in these nexus devices basically future proofs them for at least 1 year maybe 2. Yes better ones will come out next year. But these ones *should* have the power to do everything they can do assuming there is no new tech being added.
