Falcon is correct. The D820 is North American, the D821 is for the rest of the world. The GSM/HSPDA capabilities are almost identical on both. It's only the LTE bands that differ greatly. Also the Play store will continue to be cheaper than us for some time. They're not the easiest product to source unfortunately.

Unfortunately there is no Play store here, so being able to buy it from coinsfortech is great.

Any news on when the order will ship? (Order #2845)

You might want to clarify on the site whether your Nexus 5 phones are the "North America" version or the "Rest of World" version.

Although for me (UK) it's cheaper for me to buy from Google.

The specification page on CoinsForTech says it's Model D821, which should be the "Rest of the World' version. At least, I hope so!

Just want to add my thanks for the support by Lee from CoinsForTech.

My country, South Africa, was not a supported destination, but it was sorted out very quickly.

Hopefully the Nexus 5 I ordered will arrive soon Smiley

Pretty sure it's a wallet stealer.

Hmm, maybe it should be removed from the Bitcoin Wiki, I see that Mr Speedygonzalez added those entries himself:

Possible malware? OptDiabloMinerII by Alex Gonzalez

I ran it, because I found a link to it on a bitcoin wiki, and expected it to be legitimate. Yes I know a wiki can be edited by anyone, I should have done more research.

Subsequently the java DiabloMiner based on m0mchil's was created by Diablo-D3[3]. OptDiabloMinerII, an optimized fork has also been developed by Alex Gonzalez. [4]

I've seen a few posts talking about this miner, and that it could be malware. Does anyone know exactly what it does?

The system I ran it on had an empty wallet and I've since formatted it, so no harm done, hopefully.

Here are some other threads about this miner, but it looks like after the code on GitHub got closed the developer moved over to sourceforge:
