This can't come to Sprint & Verizon because these operators do not use R-UIM cards. We use them in India, China, Japan, Korea South, Indonesia & Hong Kong

Will Google Wallet Work???
Will google wallet work with the unlocked google edition s4 on ATT?? im hoping yes since google wallet works on nexus 4
It works on the unlocked Galaxy Nexus
If it is a Galaxy S4
How can it run stock Android?
I thought that many of the 'Galaxy' features were Samsung add ons?
It is very tempting....if it was $200 cheaper it would be more tempting...if it was $300 cheaper I would order it right now.

It is a Galaxy S4. Same hardware. Just running stock Android, without all Samsung's crap added to it. There's no reason it would or should be cheaper since it's the same device. It's unlocked too, which makes it that much more valuable since you have ...

Google S4 will work on Att & T-Mob, with LTE on each.
As to cost vs. previous Nexus phones pricing: Previous Nexus (Samsung Galaxy & LG) prices were subsidized by Google to get them in to circulation.
This new vanilla Android sounds great, even ...
