Nexus One Still Available... to some.

Contrary to popular reports out there, the Google branded Nexus One (by HTC) is still available.  According to this website, it can still be purchased by Google's Android Developer Program or through certain carriers (Vodaphone being one of them) in Australia, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK.  Of course, you could turn to sites like eBay, craigslist, or Amazon.com and get one used at a fraction of the price.
