So excuse the noob question, but do u have to order the phone carrier specific? How do I switch phones once I get it? It's only my 2nd smartphone, and I'm on AT&T. Thanks :D

Nope, it will be SIM Unlocked, unless Sprint does end up supporting it. Just order it, and pop in your AT&T or T-Mobile SIM card and turn it on/reboot and you're good to go.

you have to make sure its compatible with At&t radio's. i'm sure google will make it easy for you to pick the right one.

I can totally see the n5 having nanosim.

But requiring it in the android OS? There's no reason to. The OS kernel couldn't care less what form the SIM card is, it's just a piece of hardware it interacts with.

So my opinion, nextus5 with nanosim, perhaps. KitKat requiring nanosim, no way.

Yeah i forgot to say, i am 100% sure 4.4 wont need a nano sim for the OS to work properly. Some scaremongering going on with Phonearena there.
 
The @KitKat tweet with the video posted earlier today just jumped to the top of my twitter newsfeed as a promoted tweet. Not there any longer though....?

Nope, we have nothing but about 10.96x10^9999 trillion leaks... With some coming straight from Google themselves.

It depends on who you listen to. I wouldn't say that it was supposed to be released this month as no date has been announced. Once a date is announced then it is correct to say that it is supposed to be released at a certain time.
 
Well I have literally no idea how to use Google+ so I dont know how to see the details (tell me if you know how!), hooowever: http://imgur.com/848wmgw
