64GB FROST!!!
Ordered at Noon on 9/29 - JUST went to PROCESSING and my credit card now has the full amount as a PENDING charge - woo hoo - now just waiting for it to switch to shipped! ;0
So Google allowed you to PRE-order it, has not fluctuated in their expected shipping date for orders on everyone's status and yet now Google is doing something wrong?
No one can definitively answer this same question you've asked already in this forum. Either order or wait until you return to wherever you'll be after that date.
