Good news: I ordered an Android developer phone last week and I received it here in the Netherlands within a week!
Costs for me: $577 (USD), which includes the phone, shipping, customs and other taxes. It comes in a no-frills box, very short instruction card. As a developer we can figure out how to setup the mobile network stuff (it took me some googling), and I would not recommend this to non-technical people.
The phone works great, even though I currently do not have a data subscription yet. I can use WIFI at home and the phone will synchronize there and away from home I can still read Gmail because it seems to store unread messages on the phone itself.
This is a great motivation to work on my own Android application.
