Nexus 4 AT&T ST Sim on the way....
Just ordered my Nexus 4. I also went ahead and nabbed an AT&T micro sim from ebay today....hopefully I don't regret it. Everything looked legit...if something is going down with AT&T I want to get in before it happens. If nothing happens and everything goes back to normal...then i spent a little more than I needed to on the sim card, I can live with that. I want to stick with Straight Talk, and I DON'T want Tmobile. Wish me LUCK!!!!
Anyone know how quickly the 16 gig models are shipping these days? Just ordered mine about 6pm tonight. AT&T Sim is already on the way.

Is there a specific reason why you don't want T-Mobile?

Voice and data in my area are very weak compared to AT&T. I live in north central Indiana. Otherwise I'd have no problem with TMobile.

...if something is "going down with AT&T?" Huh?

Just service issues. ATT is much better in my location than TMobile. I could use Tmobile, but voice and data for ATT are much more consistent here.

Over the past few weeks the Straight Talk AT&T sim cards have become more and more scare to the point that you can't find them anywhere other than Ebay now. You can't get them from Straight Talk, and now Walmart has them all listed as "out of stock" There is no word from ATT as to whats happening, and from what I've seen responses from straight talk reps vary from, "we are just out of them for now and we'll get them back as soon as we can" to "Straight Talk will no longer be carrying AT&T sim cards"
I have no idea which is true, so to be safe i just paid a premium to get one NOW vs waiting and seeing what happens. Like I said...hopefully it doesn't backfire.

I ordered a ATT Micro sim ST card on the 14th from Walmart.com, it arrives tomorrow and on the 15th walmart listed it as out of stock, I got lucky... I wanted TMobile but I live in the sticks

Same here as far as the sticks go. Tmobile would work...but I'd get 2g at best and voice is spotty. I know with ATT i'll only get 3g speeds, but the 3g is pretty solid out here and voice coverage is much better.
Re: Nexus 4 AT&T ST Sim on the way....
I have the AT&T sim card in my nexus 4 and I'm really happy with it. Now, it did take a week and a half of tinkering with the APN settings so don't be disappointed if it's not great at first. I eventually went with the 2 APN setting, one for talk and data and one for messaging.
Re: Nexus 4 AT&T ST Sim on the way....
A question, is there anything wrong with just getting the full size SIM card and cutting it? I've noticed that my Walmart is only sold out of Micros, but still have plenty of the full sized ones for $15.
Thinking about just buying one of those and seeing if I can get a At&t store employee to cut the thing for me.

Aaaaannd they are gone again. Weird. OH well. I've got one coming I guess that's all that matters. Still in the order pending phase for my Nexus 4. Anyone order one recently? How long did you wait?

Nexus 4 strikes again - I guess we shouldn't be surprised at the surprise demand for this phone from ordering the phone itself to availability of every product related to this phone. Google FTW!
I would guess that demand is simply higher than allocated stock... which should balance out eventually.

You're probably right. I've got mine coming either way, so at least I've got peace of mind. :-)

How are you satisfied with the AT&T reception? Do you get data, i.e. 3G?
