Yeah, but what's this ****? "Nexus 7 16GB orders will be fulfilled by the end of day on July 19 (AEST) and will arrive in 3-5 days"

3-5 days???? We paid $19.99 to Google for 2 day shipping! What a rip off!

All i know is that Google is actually losing money, rather than gaining money through this disappointing pre-ordered. With all the upgrade to overnight, and most likely making their employees work over time and paying UPS additional fees for miscellaneous.

Being a CSR at Google right now, must be one of the worst job. Hopefully theyre getting paid a fairly.

Well - they obviously walked back the pre-orders shipped by end of today thing. Here is the update from their site:

In the US: We’ve shipped all standalone Nexus 7 8GB orders (e.g.: those without a case, charger or Nexus Q). By the end of day on July 19 (PDT), we will have shipped all standalone Nexus 7 16GB orders placed through July 11 (PDT), and upgraded these orders to overnight shipping. We will process the remaining standalone Nexus 7 16GB orders by the end of next week with overnight shipping.
If you ordered your tablet with a case, charger or Nexus Q, your Nexus 7 will ship this week with overnight shipping, in some cases ahead of the rest of your order. But don’t worry, the rest of your order will be on its way soon

So this THEORETICALLY means that ALL OF US who pre-ordered will get it by this Friday at the latest. Still a major major cluster f and disappointment, but we will get it by Friday..........

They were already selling them for less than they cost to produce. I get what you're saying though, this certainly doesn't help :-\

It seems like this thread is disappearing down the list now that a lot of people are receiving their tablets or have shipping info. I wish I was one of the lucky ones. Ordered 6/28 with case. Card pre-authorized and got main email but no shipping information yet. :(
