Vodafone to sell Google Nexus One In UK: First carrier in the UK, nice overseas expansion move.  Users get the phone for free with a two-year plan, which should help sales.  Unclear if the phones are going to be sold in stores according to reports, but if they are it would represent a noticeable move for Google, which has been selling it online direct to users in the US so far (and only on T-Mobile).  Not impactful for the stock, but modestly positive news for mobile strategy.
