Anyone know where I can find an unlocked or AT&T Galaxy Nexus phone at a reasonable price?

Cheapest place to get a NEW phone, is the Google Play store, at $349

What he said. $349 + tax and shipping from Google Play.

I ordered two new Gnex over a week ago from ebay merchants while the sales injunction was still in place at Google. Both eBay phones were $430 which included free shippping. (That was the cheapest price I could find on eBay for a new, never been opened Galaxy Nexus.)

I received one but the other was cancelled due to lack of inventory. My money was refunded and I immediately turned around and bought the same Galaxy Nexus from Google Play. $349 + tax and shipping, came to $382 total. Saved $48.

Google says 3 - 5 business days shipping. I'll get it early part of next week. The one I did already receive is mine, the 2nd one will be my wife's.

The model you want is the GSM HSPA+ Galaxy Nexus GT-I9250. You do NOT want the CDMA + LTE Verizon/Sprint model. The Gnex GT-I9250 works with AT&T, T-Mobile as well as international carriers -- has all the chipsets inside. It's sometimes called the "unlocked" international Galaxy Nexus, but it's the one AT&T is using.

Another question, if I have iPhone 4 under contract and not for upgrade will I be able to order the Galaxy Nexus and just put my SIM card in it??

You'll need to either get an adapter like this or go to at&t and get a regular sized sim card because the iPhone 4 uses a micro sim. You might need to set up your apn for data & mms and you should be good to go. If you don't see a H before your signal bar then you may have to call them and let them know that you are using a HSPA+ capable phone now, so you might need a new sim anyway. I'm pretty sure the iPhone4 was only 3g capable.

Hmm...I may just have to do that then.

Yes, you'll just need either a new SIM card, or an adapter.

Because the Gnex uses a different size sim card than the iPhone 4.

Thanks for your help, I will probably make the switch...

I did what Nexus 808 told you. I just bought an adapter for 80 cents and it worked like a champ. Good luck. I also converted from iPhone 4 to this. I got mine online before Google started selling them at a one day sale site.
