The Nexus 5 is now for sale! $350 for a 16 gig, $400 for the 32 gig:

I don't think I'm ready to upgrade, so hopefully Kit Kat comes to my N4 soon too!

UPDATE: Looks like Kit Kat is coming soon to my N4, and also my N7:
"Android 4.4, KitKat, which comes on Nexus 5, will also soon be available on Nexus 4, 7, 10, the Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One Google Play edition devices in the coming weeks."
That's a quote from this site:

Freedom Sleeve on 1Sale.com

This is not exactly breaking news, but I just stumbled across something on 1Sale.com, which was formerly called 1SaleADay.com. They are selling the big old clunky Freedom Sleeve for $30:

This site usually takes a couple of weeks to ship. The sleeve is pretty clunky, and it only directly connects with an iPod Touch 4th generation. You could connect to other devices via WiFi, as it can serve as a hot spot.

You do get some free internet access out of it, but I think this will only work on Sprint's WiMax network. Based on my experience, you won't be able to use it to replace your real phone. But it's still a sweet deal if you already own the iPod Touch 4th gen. Or at least it is worth considering.

1Sale.com is a clearing house/liquidator. So it's not the latest and greatest, but you get what you pay for. As long as Sprint keeps offering WiMax.

10 cents per minute

Just in case anyone else was curious, I intentionally burned through all 100 minutes this month so I would be able to see what my per minute rate is. And it is indeed 10 cents per minute. Following the advice of another blogger, I had added $10 to my account, and T-Mo has been dipping into that for additional talk time.
