Still no word here (US), one way or the other. Terrible.
Me as well. No emails, no changes in wallet/store.
I can confirm that opting out pretty much stall the process, putting you in an endless loading. Lost out on ordering mine a few hours earlier because I keep on clicking that.
The one I eventually ordered got backordered, though. Shame because I was hoping to try out photosphere during my trip to Japan at the end of the month.

Still no email either way for me. I ordered at like 8:42 PST or something

I swear, everyone should have to work a call center job or something similar at one point -- I can only imagine the calls they're getting right now.
Hell, the only reason I'm not losing my shit with them is because I've done it, and they have 0 control over the clusterfuck that is Google's e-commerce. That said, if I was Rawbh... fury like no other.
Still, having to hang on to this stupid ass Blackberry and not getting a real phone in time for a concert this Saturday = ChristianBaleHarshTimes.gif
Seriously, if they just told me what the ACTUAL fuqq was going on, I'd be less angry. Pending with backordered email, but backordered email went to some who are getting their shipments. Please l2p google.

Doesn't have to necessarily be a call center. Most retail jobs will work too lol

I've done both during high school/early university (not both jobs at the same time for my sanity)... if they're trying/ I know they're in shit situation, I tend to give em a break, haha.

Sure thing!
As of right now, the status just tells me a label was created.

Thanks for the update. and damnit!
Does it give you an estimated arrival?
I've received a package the next day that was in Kentucky the night before. The tracking system isn't exactly live and to the minute. UPS also seems to work 24 hours a day so if you see your package scanned in Ontario (usually in Concord aka Vaughan) by about 3-4 am then it should be on the local truck for delivery in the morning.

Ups says I'm supposed to get it tomorrow morning...NYC yay!
All those great retail partners of Google.

Is T-Mo still selling them?
I was updated to this:
I'm hoping it comes after 3, because that is when I will be home. The UPS guy last time just left my nexus 7 in the doorway downstairs like a jackass. Couldn't even bother to go up and check if I was even home.

16gb iphone 5's went for 800-1000$ on craigslist once the shortage really starting effecting people.

16 gb iPhone 5s, even used, still go for 800+
Me. No update or emails at all. Google Play still has an estimate of the 15th.
Same here.

Hah. And I said earlier in here that mid next week was looking likely for most of us. If yours has shipped and is expected by Tuesday, then those of us who haven't shipped are looking like late next week now. Mother fucking Google.

Yep, still hard to find. I got lucky and got one from Best Buy when they got a shipment. Still even when I was there, there were a bunch of people behind me waiting to get one.

I'm thinking of getting a 4 off contract but what is the cheapest pay monthly sim with either unlimited data or a very high amount. I only need a minimum amount of minutes and texts. Thanks.

Thanks. I've never heard of this company. What is the coverage like?
No, the majority of us got fucked over by stock levels. 1/2 hr at a unlisted time to buy a heavily promoted and cheap phone. Cheers Google

I can't believe they can charge that little! Can someone tell me why I was paying £35 a month for my iPhone 4 with 500gb and 300 texts and minutes!?
Because most people don't know any better.
I think Three's offerings are better than GiffGaffs, tbh. Mine costs £12.60 a month or so and gives me around 250 minutes, 5000 texts and unlimited data. I did a speed test with my N4 yesterday and got 18mbps down -- that's 4x quicker than my home broadband. :|
Insane.

For those that did receive their Nexus 4, (the very few), hows the battery life? Any updated reviews hitting the web since the software update?
Who needs 4G?
Also if you get someone from Giffgaff to refer you (like me) there is £5 free credit when you activate your SIM.
