Shortly after Google and Samsung announced the Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) platform and the first device to run it, Galaxy Nexus, multiple carriers hurried to confirm they will offer the smartphone soon. However, official details about the superphone's release dates and pricing options have yet to be unveiled, though many retailers are now taking pre-orders for the Galaxy Nexus.

Australian retailer Mobicity is among those who listed the Galaxy Nexus (Nexus Prime) for pre-order and hopes to boost its profits by selling the device for no less than $829 (605 EUR).

The phone is available unlocked, but the retailer has yet to announce any shipping date. Android fans living in Australia can head over at Mobicity's webstore and pre-order the Galaxy Nexus, as they will get notified the moment it arrives in stock.
