Haven't several different people been claiming they've been hearing 10-15k a day or so ?

Wonder if production problems, or shipping limits for 2 day ship guarantee or something.

Super-aggravating when units are clearly in several stores now. Wonder how many have quietly been passed on... Do companies like Google spot check retailers to verify none have leaked ? I doubt it.

Any recent EBay sales of non-IO units ?
[Nexus 7 General] klyang88:
i think everyone should just chhhill for a bit. we all know we're going to get one lol. but still i still hhate waiting but cant do nothhin about it hhahhha.

Suck it up gguys!!
[Nexus 7 General] carlpalmer:
So released on a Thursday with a two dat delivery....delivered on Saturday. Idiots.....some of us are getting it sent to our office..
[Nexus 7 General] mikereidis:
Purposely shipping on Friday would be a sneaky way of turning 2 "business days" into 4 real days. I'm assuming Saturday is not counted; I'm pretty sure that's the case here in Canada.
[Nexus 7 General] Nickcu13:
Do you mean release day or announcement day? Because there is a difference.

And for some unknown reason iPads have a lot wider appeal than Android tablets.

But hopefully the Nexus 7 is going to be the game changer.
[Nexus 7 General] mikesm1234:
Aside from all the rants about shipping dates, one thing is interesting, Judging by the number of posts, I'm thinking the Nexus 7 has the potential of great sales numbers.

[Nexus 7 General] mizatt:
Maybe you shouldn't have had it delivered to your office. How is that their fault?
[Nexus 7 General] smojica:
thats what I am doing. For some reason orders get her faster than if I sent it to my house. Plus just think of all that productivity I will lose if it gets here in the morning.
[Nexus 7 General] diecast17:
Asus is normally really bad with stock in the beginning of a product. They were horrible with the Original Transformer and with the Transformer Prime. I don't expect the Nexus 7 to be any different.
[Nexus 7 General] Banumu:
UPS does deliver on Saturdays, but it's quite a bit extra and you have to check off a box for "Saturday delivery" when you create the shipping label
[Nexus 7 General] xilefian:
Happened to me with youtube, it was so annoying haha
[Nexus 7 General] Shromz:
Apparently Google will ship the first batch tomorrow, and then the other retailers will be able to ship theirs the next business day.
[Nexus 7 General] Nickcu13:
Im thinking that it is simply a shipping limit imposed by UPS. They only have so much manpower and vehicles after all.

I'm pretty sure "2 day" is business day. And therefore Saturday does not count.

Even if they ship on Friday, they aren't being sneaky. The postal service (including UPS) doesn't do anything on Sunday (as far as i'm away) and saturdays dont count for business purposes, therefore nothing major would happen on either of those days.
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Wrong. Stuff does happen but products aren't delivered.
[Nexus 7 General] Nickcu13:
with Google being so involved in this, i highly doubt that will be the case.
[Nexus 7 General] carlpalmer:
I spend 5 delivery days at the office and 2 nom delivery days at home. Why would I get it sent to my home?
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Unlike the states, the 2 day shipping actually means 1 day shipping in the UK :-)

Ie. Amazon prime is guaranteed 2 day delivery in the states, but next day here in the UK (including saturdays)

In fact, here in the UK - I get most of my deliveries on Saturday.

Our country is just a lot smaller for deliveries, so quicker :-)
[Nexus 7 General] Nickcu13:
I stand corrected. My bad.

Any input on what they do do then?
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
Yeah, announcement day. Still I have a feeling that pre-orders for the N7 might have been unexpectedly high thus leading to shipping/manufacturing delays.

And I sure hope the N7 is a game changer!! I just hope Google does this release right so people will come back for more.
[Nexus 7 General] audioxbliss:
They have a lot of extra equipment they can use in high-demand times (e.g. Christmas) and I'd imagine they'd leverage that extra equipment at times like this. I know they hire a lot of extra manpower around Christmas and other major shipping times, so I'd assume at least some of that will be available when they experience a massive spike in demand.
[Nexus 7 General] Blainedh:
This, I'd rather not have it sit in my leasing office that closes the same time I get off work or worse yet sitting on my doorstep in an apartment complex.

Much rather it go to my office where even if I'm not in I know someone will be and place it lovingly on my desk!
[Nexus 7 General] bsquared397:
Okay. So let's say they do ship tomorrow, and the deliveries are scheduled for Monday for everyone, and the retailers will be able to start, etc. I'm leaving on Monday morning. If my N7 arrives in my local distribution center on Sunday, can I just pick it up there so they don't actually have to deliver it? I hope so... :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 7 General] Nickcu13:
And some of us can't get packages (safely) at home. In my apartment complex they just leave them sitting on top of the mailboxes. I'm not letting that happen to my Nexus 7. So i had it sent to my school haha
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
No. I've just been told that stuff does happen (my parents have a friend that works at the post office) but I don't really know what it is. Probably processing, etc. I know that I've checked delivery statuses before and they've changed on Sundays.
[Nexus 7 General] LTHorn:
Wrong. Stuff gets delivered, if the purchaser payed extra for it.
[Nexus 7 General] zagazeta:
Door bell rings. Sees UPS truck. Yells NEXUS 7. Moms pills. Crys and goes back to XDA. :banghead:
[Nexus 7 General] Nickcu13:
When the order ships (whenever that may be) you will receive tracking info from UPS. Most of the time when you track it using the tracking number you can have it wait for you at the distribution office. I've considered doing that, because it is much closer to my house than the school i'm having it sent to.
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Hmmmm...didn't know that.
[Nexus 7 General] Atmazzz:
Did I miss a post somewhere? How do we know they are shipping UPS?
[Nexus 7 General] Shromz:
Another Update

Earlier I said there there was an 8 day shipping delay. I was right/wrong... The 8 day shipping delay was for me because I ordered on the 6th, and that is 8 business days away from the 27th. They are sending them off day by day according to the day that you ordered it. That's how they will equalize it
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
No. You didn't miss a post. You missed about forty of them :) But, yeah, they're shipping UPS. I don't feel like proving it to you though because its been proved like a hundred times.
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
Once you get a tracking number, you can contact UPS to have them keep the package at their local facility.

thus allowing pick up on Monday
[Nexus 7 General] jcracken:
It said so at checkout
[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:
Much better. It seems that a few people have posted something similar. So, have we got this? Shipping almost assuredly starts tomorrow? Play customers might be receiving them Friday or Monday?
[Nexus 7 General] rster53682:
if the b&m stores have the tablets sitting in store waiting for a release........

could not the same be said for UPS...

could they not be sitting at the local UPS dispatch location waiting to be released....

meaning we can still get them overnight thursday or friday?

just a thought......

Nexus 7 not available for sale at Office Depot tomorrow...

"Sad news to report if you were planning on picking a Google Nexus 7 tomorrow, as Office Depot stores have been instructed to hold on to any stock they has received. We originally thought that the Nexus 7 might be going on sale in some places as early as tomorrow, but since this memo to Office Depot employees has been made public, it seems that the rumored July 12 launch is no longer in the cards. Even worse is the fact that the memo says the sale of the Nexus 7 has been delayed “until further notice.”

http://androidcommunity.com/nexus-7-not-available-for-sale-at-office-depot-tomorrow-20120711/

Ouch!:(
[Nexus 7 General] audioxbliss:
They usually have to have attempted delivery in order for the recipient to request that. The sender, on the other hand, should be able to request holding at the distribution center. Best bet would be to call UPS first to see if they'd be willing to do it, then call Google if they say minimum one delivery attempt.
[Nexus 7 General] Atmazzz:

[Nexus 7 General] doctahjeph:
Doesn't mean much. Until further notice doesn't mean days, weeks, or months. Hell it could mean hours. My guess is they will release the hounds after a some of those who preordered already have in their possession.
[Nexus 7 General] panman86:

[Nexus 7 General] jtc276:

[Nexus 7 General] billbradford:
My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night, and he had a Nexus 7!
[Nexus 7 General] BaconStep:
lmao
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
Actually, you can have it diverted to a UPS store for $5. You can find info on the UPS site. I've done this many times and the UPS store is usually open until 7pm. And it has never caused a delay in shipping.
[Nexus 7 General] andyln3:
That OfficeDepot memo said 16GB too, no mention of 8GB.
[Nexus 7 General] BaconStep:
one of the tags

'there is no nexus 7, only zuul'

okay which one of you did that
[Nexus 7 General] jcracken:
Only Google Play sells 8 gb.
[Nexus 7 General] panman86:
Can't be true. The guy your best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from is a homosexual.
[Nexus 7 General] Hakizi:
That's because only Google is selling the 8gb version.
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
no retail store is selling the 8GB version as of right now

Only the google store is selling the 8GB version
[Nexus 7 General] audioxbliss:
I was not aware of this. Good thing I put "usually" then :p
[Nexus 7 General] smojica:
I see what they did. They are making sure that the people that pre-ordered are getting it first. Thats why they said they will be shipping on thursday and thats why they are delaying the orders ever where else. Google doesn't want the Play store to look bad. If you remember the first attempted with the nexus 1 failed. Google doesn't want the play store to fail.

[Nexus 7 General] oldspook:
This has been done with video games. They were given to ups and sent to local ups centers around the country and held there. On release day they were put out for delivery by ups. This way they could guarantee delivery on release day to all pre-orders.
[Nexus 7 General] platinumandroid:
Sweet! Well welcome to the exclusive Nexus community,lol

And yeah I don't count the Zoom as a Nexus only because it wasn't branded as one
[Nexus 7 General] diecast17:
Interesting info I did not know that.
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Yep, thanks.

The Xoom is my only tablet, I will be keeping it even after my Nexus 7 arrives,

I bought it last summer because of my injury (see avatar) - it was my only way to effectively use the Internet & do some gaming for a few months until I was able to get upstairs to my pc.

When you're off work for nearly 6 months, unable to walk for 4 months, you realise that phone browsing isn't good enough after a couple of weeks - so bought the Xoom as my first tablet.
[Nexus 7 General] Huey85:
only Nexus branded product I have ever owned was the Nexus One. Was a great looking device at the time, but had waayyyyy too many issues with the touchscreen. Touchscreen behaviour was so erratic and was not a true multi-touch screen! Google has come a long way since the Nexus One and the G1.
[Nexus 7 General] davehasninjas:
Count me in on this club. May have to take a family photo when the tablet finally arrives.
[Nexus 7 General] razball:
This is a tablet that could play something like L.O.L. and just wondering if anyone knows or thinks that games that work with windows will soon be compatible with android?
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
Play LoL on a tablet? I highly doubt it, lol

Besides, won't you need a mouse and keyboard? Now, if the N7 could handle Diablo 3 all my prayers would be answered.

Alas, I don't see a tablet being able to handle this for at least another generation or 2

Heck, even my laptop with an i5 and HD 3000 cant play diablo
[Nexus 7 General] chrisjcks:
Windows games, no.

But HTC have become playstation certified, and that's also tegra 3 - so it might get playstation games in the future too.

Only PC's should be used for PC gaming :-)

I'm giddy besides the Atrix 4g I've never pre-ordered anything (besides ps3). It's for my son though, timing couldn't have been better. He's been bugging me for a phone or tablet and I know he'll barely use it so I can play with it lol.

Got the 16gb I figure I'm not going to bother with the whole dongle to USB flash stuff...
[Nexus 7 General] razball:
I played l.o.l. sorta through a remote access to my comp through my xoom and played using my xoom just tap spell and tap to use and double tap to move it was interesting lol
[Nexus 7 General] platinumandroid:
Haha,that would be cool.
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
What kind of frame rates were you getting?

I'm surprised a Tegra can outclass an i5 (both with onboard GPU)

Or maybe the LoL requirements are less than that of Diablo 3

I'm not constantly checking my Gmail, but I am constantly checking my online banking lol.

Hopefully it is a first come, first served as I ordered on the 27th June after the keynote.
[Nexus 7 General] delta136:
You will most likely be getting it on Saturday or Monday :)

Although it is still all speculation, but that seems to be the consensus

[Nexus 7 General] Hal_The_Hacker:
I am raging right now.

I ordered on 27/6 at 7:26 PM (GMT) so I was one of the first in the que....

and today I get an email from Play saying my order has been cancelled!

WHAT?!

I called them instantly and after being on hold for 25 minutes I eventually got through and it turns out that yes they cancelled it... because I asked them to......

Apparantly I emailed them and asked them to cancel my order..... which I did not.

I asked them to forward me the e-mail i supposedly sent them.... they were unable to do so...

And when I asked the chap I spoke to to 'un-cancel' my order..... guess what.... again, he was not able to do anything, and just suggested I re-preorder.......

so now, instead of being one of the very first in the que and definately in the first ficticious 'wave' I am now at the bottom of the pile.... THANKS G!:(
[Nexus 7 General] budde2:
I was told that the second round would be A day or two later 8 days is pretty long wait to ship the others we if you ordered on the second to the 8 you will get it a day or to later than the ones from the 27 -1 that's what I was told by a Google supervisor

[Nexus 7 General] CrittendenWildcat:
I think there would be leaks, people at UPS talking about receiving the packages by now if that were the method of delivery.

This all seems poorly planned and poorly executed. They have put themselves in a lose-lose situation. Either they tick off Play pre-order customers because retail customers will get theirs first, or they tick off retail customers by having those outlets hold back product that's in stock.

For me personally, it's the other way around. I find a 10" way too big, especially trying to type in landscape mode

My thumbs can't reach all the buttons forcing me to use apps such as Thumb Keyboard

a 7" tablet will have no problems with this and will be much more portable.

Also, it sports the same resolution as every other 10" tablet, minus the iPad 3 and the Transformer Infinity

It's funny how bigger screens are getting smaller and smaller are getting bigger.

I agree, phones have been changing from trying to be the smallest (Old flip style MOTO Razr anybody?) to the biggest screen (4.7 inches on the S3?)

On the other hand tablets have started decreasing down to 7 inches. xD

Weird how things work sometimes! xD

On another note, looking at all of these 15616514 people here, I'm really looking forward to development and the community for this device. :D
