good question.........my finger is poised over the refresh button on both google play and for the iPad air 2 (yes, i like both apple and android, no interest in petty auguments) whichever i can order first i will be getting and the other shall be laid to rest.

the iPad air 2 will be released to order i believe at midday uk time but heard nothing, zilch, nadda about the nexus 9 in the UK.......

I'm hoping the same time......but then i will really be confused as to which to get!.........

JUST pre-ordered from amazon uk. 32gb black for £399. had to use a link to find it from android police, as when i search on amazon it doesn't show.

Cool, thanks. I just pre-ordered "HTC 8.9 inch Nexus 9 LTE Tablet - (Black) (ARM 2.5GHz, 2GB RAM, 32GB Memory, Wi-Fi, Android v5.0)".

I also found it on amazon uk using your description. Thanks for that.

The UK prices are nuts though, and not at all competitive or in line with exchange rates. For people in uk buying 16GB model they want £80 more than a person in the US would pay. That's a 30% premium!

I don't think they'll move many at that price in the UK

For £60 more I ordered the iPad Air 2 64gb with discount. Price is very close......maybe to close and people just opt for the iPad as everybody knows a iPad. We will have to see.

Personally I have ordered both anyway will play with both for a couple of days or so and decide which to keep.

I'm fairly brand unbiased so I use both android and apple.

I am looking to see which stores in the UK will stock it and havent found anyone advertising that they will have it.

Ideally would like PC World to have it as I have some vouchers I can use.

I'm a bit bewildered as to the UK situation now...

Well, this time tomorrow those who pre-ordered via Google should be dispatched.......mine still says it will be dispatched on the 3rd......so here's waiting

Seems that you're left with no option but to order direct from the Google Play store if you want it early on in the UK.

I ordered late on Sat the 1st of Nov and it's apparently leaving the warehouse on Tuesday the 4th of Nov.

It's a shame they sold out of all the 32s a few days ago though. I wish I'd just ordered it from Google as soon as the Amazon dates changed. Now I don't know how long it'll take to get it.

Ended up going for PC World. £20.00 discount but could only get the 32 in white.

Nice to get £20 off....didn't know that they were going to have them available on launch day.

Online they only had 16GB black, 16GB white, and 32GB white. I wanted the black but white will do. I guess my HTC One is silver with white around the sides anyway.

I imagine their customer service and returns policy is vile but I've got a gadget insurance thing with my bank at least.
