After a few hiccups and early selling over the phone to loyalty customers, Vodafone has opened the gates to the Nexus One via their online store.
I suggest that if you want the Nexus One you better start pushing your way through said gates, taking everyone down on your way through, just like a Myer Christmas Sale.
Voda have even lowered the price of the cap from $79 to $49 with $10/mo repayments, to somewhat match Optus & Telstra’s recent price drops.

this is really gay, optus are so shit, but want to charge excess of $200 plus just to upgrade phones? i might as well cancel the contract for that amount.
I’m an iPhone convert … Jumping to the darkside !
i just got the frf91 ota update on 3 for my nexus one, so looks like the voda-three partnership means ota goodness for me from now on!!
B-)
Updates come from Google,not Vodafone/Three 😉Doomsday.
only if the carrier supports it 😉
which is why i never recieved any other ota updates.
suddenly nexus one is out on vodafone, pop. ota update!
Edited my comment accordingly.
ETA on mine is Tuesday , can’t wait
Good stuff, hope you enjoy it 🙂
@ Ben I’m with 3 as well Ben 🙁 I just ordered my nexus one for 49 dollars a month plus 10 dollar upfront plan, I’m sick of 3 due to its lack of good handsets. To transfer your phone over to vodafone it’s really simple just call them up and they will do it for you. I still have 3 months on my 3 plan but I cant stand them any longer. Its obvious the 3 main market is Teenagers/Young adults and I dont think they will bring the nexus one over from vodafone if 3 still hasnt got… Read more »
Kool i’ll check it out. Off topic with 3 around half of the cap value is included in international calls. Since i call overseas very often, does vodafone have a simlar system i can’t seem to see it on there website
Does anyone know if 3 will be getting the nexus one since vodafone/3 are one now? I’m eliable for a loyalty upgrade in a month with 3.
I’m sure they’ll only sell it under the Vodafone brand as that is their contract with Google.
still reckon that it doesn’t match the value of the Desire on Telstra for $49 with no repayments…
It is a strange thing to write, but all of a sudden, Telstra have “good value” attached to their mobile plans… i feel dirty even saying it!!!
Ordered mine today over the phone, new customer switching from 3. 3 mobile are letting me terminate my contract early with no exit fees and switching me to Vodafone !! yippee
hmm, think they might wanna make it $0 handset repayments or it is still a fail
Just ordered mine this morning online. I’m not a current customer so couldn’t do it over the phone. But the coupon code still works for $25 credit, and hopefully there will be some handsets left after my credit check clears.
