Google Nexus One store closure imminent
Google's Nexus One web store has edged closer to its death after receiving its last shipment of the smartphone.

Google has confirmed its Nexus One will no longer be available on the search giant's web store once it has sold the last shipment, which was received last week.
UK customers who still want to get their hands on the device can do so via Vodafone and Google will continue to offer customer support for Nexus One users, a company blog said.
The news comes just weeks after the search company confirmed there will be no follow-up to the Nexus One, saying it had achieved all it wanted to with the smartphone.
In May, Google announced it would be closing the Nexus One store, saying it had failed to live up to expectations and was "a niche channel for early adopters".
"It's clear that many customers like a hands-on experience before buying a phone, and they also want a wide range of service plans to chose from," said Andy Rubin, vice president of engineering at Google, said in a blog post.
