I just got the same now in Shrewsbury, MA USA.

Ugh, just got the same e-mail a few minutes ago :'( Oh, well, 3 weeks is not that bad. On the plus side AT&T finally lit up LTE in Charleston, SC this morning!!! I can finally burn some LTE on my other phones while I wait!

What did everyone's status show prior to receiving this, estimated shipping date or pre-order?

My order status on google play is "complete" and on wallet is "pending". I have a pending charge on my Amex card.

Yepppp, just got my backorder email as well (Boston). I wonder now, is anyone actually receiving a Nexus 4, or was this all a ruse? Also, are we going to be refunded that exorbitant "2-day shipping" fee? Because no way am I paying $15 for 3 week shipping..

Edit: It does look like they will "credit the shipping charges", so I guess it's bumped down to free shipping?

I guess I'll just mess around with CM10 until then!

Exactly what I just emailed Google. and I have seen some email conformations that they sent. But I was in the middle of physics class when it was released so I couldn't order it! :mad:

Re: 'within' 3 weeks till the next shipments of nexus 4 (email inside) (UK)

This is MADNESS. So I take it this isn't exclusive to Europe? First I saw a guy from Germany receive this email, now this guy from the UK, and now people in the US.

Is there a pattern or algorithm that G is using to determine who's Nexus gets backordered? Are we all potential targets? I ordered mine on Nov 13, 2012 8:41 AM PST (thats 11:41AM EST, as soon as they released it), did anyone order that early and receive this email? If I was one of the first to order and get this email I will be enraged and burn down the Kentucky warehouse so all of us can suffer muhahaha!
