Google Begins Selling Galaxy Nexus Directly Through Google Play Store for $399

nexus play store 650x276 Google Begins Selling Galaxy Nexus Directly  Through Google Play Store for $399

Forget the imminent launch of Google Drive, the fact that Google is selling the Galaxy Nexus in the Play Store is something to talk about. The last time they tried to sell a device on their own was with the Nexus One, and as many of you know, that failed to work all that well. But, Google appears to be willing to give it another try and with a solid price to boot ($399). This is for the unlocked GSM version of the device only, but by moving into the device selling business again, Google sets themselves up nicely to start hawking their own Google-branded tablet that we are expecting some time this summer.

We'll be digging around to see if we can find more. One thing to note, is the "Shop Devices" link which could easily open this up to others. For now though, it simply redirects back to this Nexus page.
