I wish I had pre-ordered my Nexus 7 but couldn't do so until I sold my Galaxy Tab 7 Plus. Just ordered today and it says it will ship in 1-2 weeks. Does that mean it will arrive before stores like GameStop or Staples gets their next shipment? I read somewhere those B&M stores won't get their next allotment until August, which is why I ordered from Google directly.

At this point, I don't think ANYONE here could give you a solid answer on that...

If you really *needed* it now, my advice would be to call all nearby retailers to see if they still have any from the initial shipment, but otherwise, you'll most likely get the tab around the same the time as the retailers get the next shipments in, based on the information available. Could be a few days before...could be a few days after...who knows?!?

My best advice it to not get too stressed about it.

Thanks for the info. I actually did check the Staples Pre-Order link but when I went on Staples.com it's still showing as out of stock.

Not too stressed, although I'll be without a tablet for a week or so.

Actually, based on what Google has now been reporting, it sounds like Play Store orders will ship before stores get new stock... but again, who knows?!?
