OK so I'm anxiously awaiting this thing but not going to start flipping out until we actually get to the end of the 3rd week.

I have to wonder WTF is going on though when this was the deal one whole week ago when people couldn't modify orders: "Preorder

shipment processing on your order has begun, which means that our shipping provider is moving forward with delivery preparation."

And then the information that these things have been basically gathering dust at places like Gamestop for a few days. Again I'm not going to start really losing it until the middle of next week but I have to wonder about WTF is taking so long or what are they waiting for?

oh gee thats a great tactic, maybe after a long enough time everyone here will want to buy one, oh wait, we already did......the least thought out attempt at mind control by a company yet :P
[Nexus 7 General] mewantnexus7:
And then host it on google drive.

And then shorten the url with goo.gl

Then post it in the comments to a youtube video

Then shorten the youtube url

Then link to a google search where it's the first result.

Don't forget to shorten that with goo.gl

[Nexus 7 General] Ahmazin:
I'm guessing that you meant why buy a device that you can buy things from the play store with? I hope I interpreted that correctly... You don't "Have" have to buy anything from the play store. There are a lot of free items on the play store. And some people just want it to surf the net, check emails... that kind of thing. You can put music and movies on it that you already own...
[Nexus 7 General] iucidium:
I'm coming back on here. Its like sharing a bed with a zombie and a predator
[Nexus 7 General] mikereidis:

Moving forward ? WTH does that mean ?

Saying "shipping provider" makes it sound like Google is finished, and any delays must be the fault of the shipper.
[Nexus 7 General] r4d14n7:
I did. No call yet though.
[Nexus 7 General] chisaki:
I'm as patient as anyone but now I'm pissed. I pre ordered because I wanted to be one of the first one's to get a N7. Now my next door neighbor is playing with her N7. She works at Walmart part time and somehow she got one. Of course she had to come over and brag and show off.

ggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..................

[Nexus 7 General] Beta Max:
No way she got it from Walmart. Where did she get it? And I want pics.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Well at least get her to let you take it for a test drive. It could validate all your hopes for the device.

Today is a special day

07/12/2012 (or 12/07/2012 as the folks across the pond taught us earlier)

Today is the day that lack of N7 tablets caused the android community to push Ronald McDonald over the edge.
[Nexus 7 General] cornelious2:
then were at around 19.7 days delayed already.

wtf is this Ronald sh&t.........it's getting old now, find me something else
[Nexus 7 General] Dorilife:
Just for kicks..
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
Just out of curiosity, is it legit for a store to refuse to cancel an order and not ship the item?? I tried to cancel my order last Saturday and they said I couldn't because it was ready to ship.

Well, that was days ago... It just doesn't seem like something a reputable business would do.

I'd rather cancel my Google order now, get my $14 "expedited" shipping back and take my chances at a store...

[Nexus 7 General] illfindu0742:
?

I see "News" on other places claiming that there have been SOME shipped orders from the play store has there even been on confirmed tracking number of any kind.
[Nexus 7 General] Outrager:
Places like Amazon and Newegg do that all the time when the item is being packaged and ready for ship. But that usually takes less than a day to complete.

Also, for anyone who ordered thru J&R, their twitter says they'll have more info monday. https://twitter.com/JandR/status/223503860600274944

[Nexus 7 General] mr1ncred1ble:
Google!! This is the problem with trying to pull off a coordinated product release like this. If it works perfectly it's awesome and you are gods but if it messes up in the tiniest bit you create a negative tone that can echo throughout your base, and make minor issues in execution turn into 500 page threads on a nerd forum. That being said, I'm not sure what the original "plan" was, but I can't believe they meant for it to go like this.
[Nexus 7 General] Kennnny1:
I missed the last 500 posts. Anything important?
[Nexus 7 General] ohaaron:
ME: When will my Nexus 7 Ship?

CSR: Soon

In all seriousness, though... at least the people at Google Play support speak fluent English.
[Nexus 7 General] kangxi:
I fully expect to wake up tomorrow and everyone that DIDN'T order from the Play Store will have their Nexus 7 -_-
[Nexus 7 General] Nickcu13:
true dat. and they're more friendly than most other call centers. i like them. imma call them sometime just to talk.
[Nexus 7 General] elias0441:
300 of those 500 posts are about Ronald McDonald's , so no you didn't miss much

I hope so...
[Nexus 7 General] Thebeast715:
Every person working those phone lines should get a free Nexus 7 (after mine is shipped) just for dealing with the people in this thread.

Unlike some other folks in here I'm not mad at Google. They honestly didn't promise me anything other than a tablet some time in July. I'm just on here all day because I'm a big kid who wants his toys now!

I think I am going to be happy with my purchase whenever it arrives. In the mean time I have laughed my ass off for the last couple hundred posts. This thread is reaching some big numbers, I wonder how high it will get to?
[Nexus 7 General] thekillingtree:
it didn't bother me much before, but if i don't at least get an email from google saying wtf is going on, i'm going to be mad.

not that i'll do anything but ffs. there shouldn't be multiple places sending out tracking #s.

i understand that a preorder is just reserving your copy but when you order weeks in advance to not get it on 'release day', that sucks. ALSO, they've clearly had them ready to go if they're already in ****ing england.
[Nexus 7 General] jimczyz:

[Nexus 7 General] orthojeff:
Got my case confirmed and billed, but what about the nexus?

I noticed that the case I ordered with my nexus is now showing as "completed 7/13/2012" in the play store. I also see that it's pending on my bank online account site. I hope this means that my nexus is just queing up.... can't do much with the case without the tablet!

I'm curious that it indicated 7/13 but was billed to my bank account at 8pm eastern today.....

Good news, I think?????
[Nexus 7 General] scooter217:
Geez it's about time, I never thought this day would come. Just got my tracking number!!!

That's horrible!! They are going to ship your case first? Major DBaggery on Google's part.
[Nexus 7 General] klyang88:
talked to google. Anyone who ordered before the first had already been shipped and you will receive an email tomorrow also u will receive it on saturday or monday. as for me and the people who ordered on the 1st-8th we'll be on the second round of shipment which will start on tuesday next week.
[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
Ha! When you call in they have a prerecorded message now about the Nexus 7 and its shipping situation. All I really got from it though was "Stop calling about the damn Nexus 7 already, you'll get it when you get it. Unless you ordered from somewhere else, then you might get it sooner."
[Nexus 7 General] nicatronTg:
With half of XDA calling every hour to see where it is, no wonder they'd switch to a recorded message.
[Nexus 7 General] ohaaron:
I hate you for your signature, sir.
[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
Yeah, I'm sure we've been annoying the crap out of them. Not surprised they did it at all.

I get that a lot.

Hell yeah, I watched it a couple weeks ago because I couldn't find anything else interesting and thought it was awesome! Took me by complete surprise. I've watched it twice since.

[Nexus 7 General] bkmaracas:
this has been a good wheeze to read this evening, thanks to all... though i agree with the 'entitlement' generation references, chill!

so what if "you'll get mad if its not here tomorrow" ? - people are angry for far better reasons right now.

life is generally one long string of dissapointments and expectations left unmet, this is why we all should have had a pet fish when young that died after a week, to learn about death, loss and not having everything you're own way!

of course i'd like my shiny new thing sooner than later, but worrying about it is just unpleasant, so getting over the uncontrollable and forgetting about it makes its arrival when it comes even sweeter. get a little buddhist on this thing, worrying about what we cannot change is wasted energy.

sorry for not being an hilari-post or rant..

oh and uh wheres my sodding nexus? :)
[Nexus 7 General] codygordon:
So when do you guys think the b&m stores will be able to let their stock get sold? So far all Google is saying is "Hey contact the retailer for those kinds of questions!". I'm really hoping that we can pick them up soon.
[Nexus 7 General] MC153:
Hopefully I'll get a shipping confirmation email tomorrow. :( Good night!
[Nexus 7 General] brizey:
Got to say, though, this is better than the 12 WEEK wait for the Raspberry Pi I ordered.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Big difference - the Raspberry Pi foundation kept you posted every step of the way. They even posted xrays of the problem Ethernet connector.
[Nexus 7 General] StyleNSkillz:

What is more disappointing then not having Nexus7? Actually getting to the end of this thread and having to hit refresh every 2 minutes...
[Nexus 7 General] Ahmazin:
I'm thinking those who ordered it from retail stores should be able to pick them up. I wish I had waited and preordered it at Gamestop or something. I just listened to the recording and Google is either saying "fu*k it," let them sell them or they're setting the retailers up to have give some bullsh*t reason not to sell it to people.

If I were you guys that ordered it from Gamestop, I would record the message and play it for the managers of these retail stores if they try to refuse to sell it to you. If Google is telling them behind the scenes not to sell it until a certain date, at least the one's they don't like to be thrown under the bus will say, "fu*k" it and sell it to you.

If Google is doing that, they're a bunch of sorry bi*ches
[Nexus 7 General] jimczyz:
Of course, one that doesn't have strawberries in it, duh.
[Nexus 7 General] BaconStep:
yeah thats it

[Nexus 7 General] mikereidis:
This ^^^

.
[Nexus 7 General] codygordon:
Exactly, I've contacted 3 managers for gamestop, and all 3 told me the same thing, Google pulled the released date and made it TBD. Now Google is (From what i could tell) saying its ok for them to sell it. Which would be good considering I was soo close to getting out of gamestop with mine this morning, that i spent the rest of the day in tears because of the failed attempt.
[Nexus 7 General] adamskub:
Well I'm out for the night, going to leave this just cause I think it's hilarious. I'll hopefully see a tracking number when I wake up!!!
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:

Just call this number and press1

1 855 836 3987 and then at the prompt press 1, there's a pre recorded message, that basically says "For those who have purchased from other retailers, please contact them for information about the Nexus 7"
[Nexus 7 General] lovenokia:
when did you order!!!!!!!!
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Oh. Well I don't really think that means Google is allowing them to go ahead and sell it. They obviously just don't want to be blamed for the ones that have jumped the gun.
[Nexus 7 General] Ahmazin:
When you call play store customer service, the Google message pretty much says that the stores have the discretion to do what they want, according to their "OWN" policies. So to me, it sounds like Google is relinquishing all responsibility for what the stores do with their stock.
[Nexus 7 General] doctahjeph:

If they're passing the $buck$, then the retail stores should be able to spend it how they like. It's like one parent telling their kid, go ask the other. What ever the other parent decides, shouldn't be an issue later.

[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
So do you think there's a chance that GameStop, OfficeDepot, Staples, etc might begin shipping/releasing pre-orders tomorrow? I know mine is waiting for me at my local GameStop and just knowing it's there is killing me :( Still, I'm not going to complain. If Google wants the chains to wait longer in order for the Play orders to be shipped, I understand.
[Nexus 7 General] Cel1084:
$100 a post and well talk about that release.

I'm actually pretty sure it hasn't been said 1000 times. I've been following this thread pretty closely since it had about 3 pages...
[Nexus 7 General] lovenokia:
Who is shipping the nexus 7? UPS? Fedex? UPS?

I am not sure at this point.
[Nexus 7 General] MC153:
I just talked to Google Play Support. The customer service rep told me they are currently processing them in waves and are going to ship them all at the same time. She couldn't give me an exact shipping date but kept with mid July.
[Nexus 7 General] clintonroche:
Nobody on here really knows how or when these are going to ship. It is all just speculation and some educated guesses based on previous launches.
[Nexus 7 General] armyboy11b:
Then learn to read maybe. ..its their...i was one that said it...either way it don't matter we have no hard facts so no one really 100% knows when its coming. ..when u get it..u get it
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
Guess I am lucky, I have an awesome UPS person! He always knocks and if I am not here he always tries to hide my deliveries behind flower pots or furniture when he has to leave something on my porch.

There is also the option of having your order diverted to your local UPS Store. I've done that several times and it costs $5 bucks, but I think it's worth when I know I won't be home to accept a delivery. It beats seeing that yellow sticker on the door! Most UPS stores are open until 7pm. I'll probably do this when I receive my Nexus tracking number.
[Nexus 7 General] Outrager:
They probably sold out of stock when they got that injunction and weren't able to import any new ones in. The 2-3 weeks might be just giving them a good buffer to have more shipped now that they're allowed past customs.
[Nexus 7 General] altrikdout21:
Yes!! I had an order from the 27th but cancelled that and reordered the 3rd. Would be nice to have them all ship at the same time (and as early as possible!).
[Nexus 7 General] IncredibleMango:
We'll find out when they ship, but I'm thinking UPS.
[Nexus 7 General] gobbo:
According to the UK Play store the shipping will be via TNT, not sure about the US though.
[Nexus 7 General] Logan_M:
Pretty sure that they ship UPS, I think that's what it said on my receipt.
[Nexus 7 General] clintkev251:
