These are the feature for the default device, right?
and a user can customize that as well??

Any clue what is the price without contract and what is the lead time required before we should give our customization requirements?

Off the track: But if Google is already in control of Motorola - why do they choose different hardware makers for their Nexus series? I heard that they've worked with Samsung and LG for their nexus devices.

Maybe Motorola's capabilities are very limited?

Its not very long when Google got the control over Motorola.
It will be interesting to see what Google will use in Nexus future versions. I believe they will try to stick to Motorola rather than LG.
