    Anyone know if this beast will be released in Europe? Or is it exclusive to the states.

    It'll probably make it here eventually. But it's unlikely to be picked up by more than a few providers. I wouldn't expect to see it on anyone but vodafone or o2 in ireland.

    I've bought from an ebay company called ecell before, they sell all unbranded sim free phones, and have been a pleasure to do business with each time.

    The nexus prime is 90% certain to be my next phone, I'm digesting morsels of information about it any time I can.

    I'd be surprised, it's not a Samsung phone, they are just making it for Google as they don't make phones, well yet anyway, with the purchase of Motorola I would assume that Motorola will be making future nexus phones. With that in mind I'd expect Google to be the ones announcing it

    Google have said that the purchase of Motorolla will not effect how the Nexus phones are built, currently Google send a spec of what they want out to all manufacturers and they respond with what they can do and the price.

    The Nexus Prime is going to be the flagship Ice Cream Sandwich phone so it will be announced by Google when they announce Ice Cream Sandwich officially. That's how it has worked with the other Nexus phones.

    The last few Nexus fones have reached Vodafone. I think they were a month or 2 behind the American launch.

    Will be available in GSM so you should be able to pick one up over the internet easily.
