Shipping date speculation

I logged into my Bank account and set up email alerts for transactions > $300.

Now if Google charges my acct, I'll know immediately. :D
 
How can people possibly be calling this release a flop? They said mid-July, and it will be mid-July. Why do people always assume that if it doesn't get released on the EARLIEST possible LEAKED date then something is wrong?

If by the end of next week it still hasn't shipped, then we can start questioning them, but until then we should consider it still On-Time.

we're living in the entitlement generation.
what did you expect? it's sickening.
 
You think it' s a successful release when no one from Google to the retailers to the consumers has any clue what is going on? Retailers have their hands on product and have no idea when they're supposed to sell it. How is that a great release?

wtf does that matter?
they owe NO ONE any explanation. if we weren't living in the digital era, you wouldn't even know that stores received it.
it is not even mid-July yet.

and if it goes past mid July and you still haven't received it, feel free to take your money elsewhere if you are that mad at google.
 
I decided to check my purchase history on previous devices I've ordered from the Play Store to see what happens in what order. Looks like the very last thing they do is charge your card, so you might see a shipping email first. (I can't be sure as this is the first device I've ordered from them as a pre-order though.)
 
Right I need some sleep (10.20pm in the UK).

I fully expect to wake up to a 'we have shipped your shiny new gadget' email from Google......Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease
 
If you order the case with the 16GB model, it can put you over the $300 mark. What is the $12 number you quote though? I've got $13.99 for shipping and $19.88 for taxes for myself.

Yes, it's a 16 gb + case.

I ordered w/o a case, cancelled and reordered with a case.

Now I found a nice leather case, which should be here tomorrow.
 
Google just sent me an email from the devices team!
