Really? It was in my hand last week, and decided not to at the very last minute lol.
They are still on the Walmart website (but no the ST website), however the last 4 orders I've placed had "errors" and were cancelled. Just tried another time and haven't gotten an error email yet.
They carry the SIM cards at your local Walmart? I heard they don't but I might check a few of mine out.
edit: Got error again, order cancelled.
edit2: Ordered a SIM card alone from walmart.com without the bundled $45 refill card and it looks to be working.
I was a minute before you, but I've had a shipment mail in the last half an hour so hopefully you'll get yours soon.I ordered at 15:03:11 in the UK yesterday and no dispatch

I said to link mine and it must have shipped hours after I ordered. Linking didn't do anything though, must be because I didn't have a SIM in.

Totally agree about the size. My body wasn't ready at first but it makes browsing and typing so much better.
Pretty sure you can't delete Google apps without Root. You can disable it in Settings->Apps.

This is a weird topic to talk about since everyone always takes those films off the second they unbox the phone but the nexus has the best default protective film I've ever seen on a device lol.
The back one is incredible minus the IMEI sticker attatched. It's cut perfectly you can barely get your nails under to peel it off. I think you'll be fine with it for a week no doubt.
Mine started showing scratches after about a month (the film not the screen) so I just took it off. From now on I'm going to keep those films on until the honeymoon period of having a new phone is over after a month or so when I'm not so anal anymore about scratches.
My back film unfortunately peeled off in my pocket. Got a case to replace it real quick.

Got my shipping confirmation. Yes.
Is the back glass on anyone else's phone raised just slightly above the bezel? Like when you run your finger from the plastic bezel onto the glass it feels like running your finger over a sheet of paper on a desk. It isn't a huge concern, but I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be 100 percent flush all of the way around. End of OCD question.

I'm a little bit overwhelmed right, there are many things I like, few baffling things (mostly with rendering and performance)... But overall, I'm glad I jumped ships.
One thing I'd like to ask about, since I really don't now where to start, is a good and reliable resource that could provide with the best apps, widgets, and tweaks. Basically whatever will help e get the most out of it in ways my previous iDevices wouldn't allow.

As for cases, I have my eyes on the Ringke Fusion case. It's supposed to be pretty thin like the Ringke Rearth SLIM, but its also a hybrid case that shows off the Nexus 4's back:
This is the case I've been dreaming of. It's about time somebody made one with a transparent back.

Mine hasn't shipper yet either
This is an awesome case. I can't seem to find anywhere that'll be selling it in the UK though, does anyone know anywhere that does?Bestskinsever protectors are great. I have it on my phone. They're wet-application skins, so they actually cover the curved edges unlike the dry-application skins like SGP. They also have very little orange peel (significantly better than the Zagg shields).

Woot, mine arrived this morning after ordering it at 15:06 Wednesday. Very impressed as they said 1 to 2 weeks.
Now I need to learn where everything is.
Gmail and Exchange setup and Gmail has the tags that is very nice.

Ordered mine Tuesday at 4:30pm EST. Last night (this morning) at 2:00am, my account status on the Google Play store said my estimated shipping date was 2/13. Fast forward 6.5 hours and it now says February 1. I assume that means it was shipped on 2/1, but I'll hope for the best since others are getting surprise deliveries.
Rearth, the manufacturer has an Amazon.com store. That fusion case in particular isn't on there yet, but when they start selling it, it'll be on both the official site and the amazon store. Their amazon store does ship internationally - you have to click on the "more buying choices" link to get to it.

Glad US Gaf finally gets a hold of these things. Have fun with them, they deserve it!
Took me a while before I realised those weren't actually on the screen.
