Google Play site updated to Temporarily Out of Stock

**wvcadle** · 01-28-2013, 07:06 PM

Google has updated their site from OUT OF STOCK in red letters, to TEMPORARILY OUT OF STOCK in black letters. For a second, I thought it was back in stock because I am used to seeing the red lettering.

Could it be.... soon (soon, as in a normal human's definition of soon, as opposed to Google's definition)?

It is exciting...but then again it may just be PR. "Temporarily Out of Stock" looks and sounds a lot better than "Sold Out". I think all the Play Store items that were out of stock now say "Temporarily Out of Stock" which raised my PR motive suspicions...

From someone with what's equivalent to a Droid X, I am in need of an upgrade. My current phone sometimes takes 30-60 seconds to connect a call after I hit send.

Yes. C'mon Google, surprise me!

Well I see that I'm not the only person watching it like a hawk! My Page Monitor extension was going crazy there for a few minutes.

I had the same double take today. Credit card is ready to go whenever they're back in stock!

Wasn't it a Tuesday when it was released in the USA initially, and then the rerelease?

Hi, I'm Andy, (smadger on XDA)

After the first batch of Nexus 4s went missing I created the "Where's my Nexus 4 - Register your Complaint" site to get Google's attention, it appeared to work and opened up a dialogue with us.

We promised we would track their progress and now mkII of the site is up and running. It has nothing to do with Google, but should allow us to track the new orders, and provide a unified voice if there are problems.

If you manage to place an order for a new Nexus 4 device, please think about signing up -

If you have any questions, get in touch through the site.

Thanks

Andy
