Android Dev Phone 2™
0I ordered my “Android Dev Phone 2™” on Sunday 27/08/2010 and thanks to UPS and the BrightStar i will hopefully have the phone anytime today!
It is shipped right from US. This is surprisingly a fast order&shipment service comparing to our local providers here in UK…
Anyway, when i get the phone, i will upload some photo from the un-boxing
BrightStart: Deals with orders on behalf of Google. They offer both Nexus One and Android Dev Phone 2″.
Android Dev Phone 2 costs $399.00 and since it’s shipped from US to UK, I ended up paying $570.21. $108.85 is Duties/Tax and $62.36 for shipping. So if you are thinking of joining the Android Developers and test your first application on real device, you need $25 to register as an Android developer at Google Android developers and $570.21 to buy the device. This is if you are in UK, or at least this is what i paid so far!
