Nexus One : still no official date

Available for a month and a half in the U.S., the Nexus One is still pending in France. We had the opportunity to meet a spokesman for Google France, who could not confirm the sale date.

Mobiletrackers.net was able to attend a demonstration in the Nexus One local Google France. The opportunity for us to raise questions about Google's flagship smartphone and in particular on its release date in France.
While rumors about a forthcoming marketing (March / April) at the operator SFR remain at large, Google France was unable to confirm this information, nor the possible premiere given SFR. The spokesman has even cast a doubt remembering the episode of the HTC Dream, which had landed at Orange some weeks before the arrival of Magic at SFR, while everyone awaited the arrival of the first Android smartphone SFR. We took this opportunity to remind the Nexus One was already available in France (import) with or without subscription via several online shops such as: MeilleurMobile, PhoneAndPhone, Pixmania or RueDuCommerce. Google France has made no comment on that, and now seems unwilling to stop this trade practice immediately. To be continued. Anyway, Google is determined to sell its Android smartphone 2.1 only online via its website. A gamble, especially in France where sales are overwhelmingly through the shops of traders.
Regarding marketing in the United States, the spokesman that we met we could not give sales figures on the Nexus One, who would have sold only 80,000 copies in one month according to figures circulating.
Very close to the performance achieved by the iPhone that was torn to 600,000 copies the first month of its release. Recall that, more generally, Eric Schmidt, CEO of Google, recently said that Google, through its partners, "sold over 60,000 units per day Android" with 26 models of smart phones that are equipped with the operating system Google's mobile.
As expected, Google France therefore continues to remain very discreet about the arrival of the Nexus One in France. The release date, operator partners and the price have still not been officially disclosed.
