No. Why would you say they did?

Yes but not as much as people wanna believe they did. They'll learn from this experience and do better in the future.

No. I dont think they intended to launch Friday. They couldn't keep the brick and mortar stores from selling them so they had no choice but to say hey its release time. I think mid next week was a better date. Google knows how shipping works and would not start shipping items on a Friday knowing they would sit around all weekend. I think the screw up was getting them out to stores too early. Maybe Monday they would have said Wednesday was launch and ship them Monday so we had them for Wednesday.

Stores like GameStop and staples had confirmation to sell them on Friday but Google pushed it back but some stores didn't cooperate(for what reason idk) so they gave the go-ahead

No. Sick and tired of the grown men whining on this forum. It was fun last week when we all were dealing with it, but we all will get it sometime this week. Relax and quite ing about getting your shipping refunded. It is $14 bucks, bro.

I'm going to say no. We're just all too impatient. I'm including myself in that too. It was a confusing release though, but I don't think Google is really to blame for that.

There not grown men there kids living in moms basement who expect the world to had them every thing on a golden platter. They need to throw on some glitter and step into the sun light.
