Updated: Google Nexus S now available for pre-order on four networks


The Carphone Warehouse has announced that pre-orders on four networks for the forthcoming Google Nexus S have now gone live.UPDATE: TechRadar spoke to The Carphone Warehouse, which confirmed a 'huge interest' in the device to us:"The Google Nexus S is a game-changer for Android so it's great to see so many networks getting behind it. We've seen huge interest in the phone over the last few days since pre-ordering began at The Carphone Warehouse," a spokesperson told Techradar."We now have a great offering of Android handsets which will continue to grow in the New Year."The phone will be available to buy both on contract or PAYG/SIM free, with the former costing �35 per month for a free phone - O2, Vodafone, T-Mobile and Orange are supporting the phone, but Three is nowhere to be seen.However, while �35 per month does get you a plethora of minutes and unlimited texts, the most you can get data-wise is 750MB included.Go big for a gigTo get over 1GB allowance, you'll need to sign up to a �50 a month deal, which seems a little extreme, and will hopefully be updated when the networks start offering it directly (if they ever do).SIM free the Google Nexus S will cost �549.95, with the PAYG curiously the same, but with a mandatory �10 top up - usually paying a network for the phone will get you a micro-discount at least.Still, there's not long to wait, as the Google Nexus S UK release date is set for 20 December - enough time to blackmail Santa (with those photos of him bothering that OTHER reindeer) into bringing you one.Related StoriesGoogle overhauls Android Gmail appLG backtracks on Android 2.3 upgrade for Optimus OneUpdated: PSP Phone rumours: what you need to knowSony PSP Phone performs poorly in benchmark videoSamsung Galaxy S Android 2.3 Gingerbread update confirmedAdsense
