On: Google has lowered the price of the Nexus 4 by $10...

[sireat]

In most of Europe, buying a phone off contract is perfectly normal, so Google is losing out on a ton of sales.

I do not see how carriers in Europe could block sales of Nexus 4. In fact, I think there is even some EU law against this(limiting phones).

I think the real reason has to do with Google not willing to jump through some regulatory hurdles for each EU country.

It would be interesting to see what exactly is preventing them from selling.
