Google to Stop Selling Nexus One Smartphone

Google Inc will stop selling its Nexus One smartphone after some dismal sales figures.

The company announced on July 16 that it received its final order from the phone's manufacturer HTC, ReadWriteWeb reported.

In the time it took Apple to sell 1,000,000 iPhones, Google racked up a mere 135,000 Nexus One sales.

"Nexus One will continue to be sold by partners including Vodafone in Europe, KT in Korea, and possibly others based on local market conditions. To ensure our developers have access to a phone with the latest Android OS, Google will be offering the Nexus One through a partner for sale to registered developers," Google said.

Customer service will still be provided for the Nexus One and Google will continue to produce Android smartphone software.
