Why have Nexus 7 pre-orders been delayed until September?

Man, I got lucky. I walked into my gamestop on Wednesday the 11th and put $50 pre order payment down (after reading on the Verge that GS would be a retailer of them). Hoping for Thursday delivery was happy with the phone call on Friday that I could pick it up. Been using it ever sense with no problems.

Clerks at the GS store told me that I got the only one to go out of their store- I guess I was the only one to pre order one.

I pre ordered mine on the same day this was posted. The guy at GameStop told me this as well. Hope it's not true since a lot of people got theres early being included in the 2nd wave. I read an article that we could and are supposed to get our tablets by August the 7th or earlier. I hope I'm the only pre order.

I just pre-order mine on Monday and was told that I am on the 3rd wave of pre-orders and I would get mine some time in September. Wow I really hope I get lucky and get it earlier

Update at top of thread.

Update: It looks like it was the Gamestop preloaded games that were crashing the 7. This issue seems to be resolved and while officially the next batch is supposed to come in late September they expect new shipments will start to come in next week or the week after.

I called Gamestop today to check on my order and was told I would have to wait until September. They said they received an email from corporate stating that they had to pull any units they currently had and that the new expected delivery date was sometime in September. Not wanting to believe one source, I called up their general Customer Service number and they confirmed the story.

I'm a little bit bummed now.

There were NO preloaded games on the Nexus 7.
