US release date could be July 12th!

I noticed over the past couple days that the one I got at staples (for my wife) has a display flaw. Now that I can compare it side by side with the one from the play store, it is definitely a defect. There is a horizontal line of pixels about 2/3rds of the way down that are a little darker then the rest of the display. Looks like just a single row of pixels. Maybe my wife won't notice :-\

Just checked my bank account and I'm missing the exact amount that I put down for the nexus 7 weird.

Sent from my SPH-D710using Android Central Forums, thanks Android Central.

Ordered July 7th ~ 4am, card was just charged and the date changed in the GP store to July 18. Still nothing changed in Google Wallet, and no email.... but most of the people who got theirs today didn't receive an email with tracking info until 2am - 3am, so that's when I expect one tonight (tomorrow morning).

Got the standard email last night about a huge demand in the Nexus 7 blah blah. Woke up this morning at 0500 and said it had been shipped from Ky and would arrive today. What do you know, finally got it about 1630 this afternoon.
Ordered on 6/27 16gb with case
Both went right up on Ebay due to picking up at Game Stop last Friday.

Not to fond of the case either....

I opted out of the case because I was sure (and still am) that there will be plenty of better third-party cases coming down the line shortly. Most likely cheaper as well.

I opted out too for the same reason. Any that you've seen that you like so far?

Da Nexus 7 came yesterday. MAD FAST

yea and it's buttery smooth too. I got mine yesterday and my brother got his today from staples. Android beam is pretty cool. Can't wait till some more tablet optimized apps come out

The only one I've found so far that looks any good is the one at the link below. I'm gonna hold out for a little while before purchasing it, but it's probably what I'll end up getting. Great price too.

Edit: When I say "looks any good", I mean for my personal preference. There may be some others good ones out there in different form factors.

Book Style Stand Folio Leather Case for Google Nexus 7 Tablet - Black [EG000295A0001] - US$12.99 :

I like that case. At least I like it way more than the rooCase I was looking at last week. Man, that case you showed me with one of the ballpoint pen styluses would be perfect. Thanks for showing me that site.

No problem. I actually changed my original post to a different one, for $15.99 that is 50g lighter, because I found it after posting the one you looked at, but I don't believe the $15.99 one has a pen/stylus holder. Both look good, and yeah the site has some great looking cases.

PU Leather Folio Case with Stand for Google Nexus 7 - Black [EG002240A001] - US$15.99 :

Not too shabby. The loss of a stylus holder is a bit of a bummer, but definitely not a dealbreaker at that price.

Ah. I was quite confused. Haha.

 

[bovineyard]

Got mine (16gb) at local Sam's club yesterday, the guy said they just got them in. I think I got the second to the last one.

 

[meno73]

still waiting ordered on july 6th (16GB) although there has been some movement I got a pre-authorization charge a few hrs ago Google better hit this deadline or i am going to be even more pissed off than i already am!!

 

[jmoore122195]

Any case suggestions so far? I may just wait till Asus comes out with the official case. Can't wait for the dock too

 

[ezzkmo]

Well it's basically Thursday now and I have yet to get any emails, updates, or CC charges. But I was "assured" on the phone a few hours ago I would have it Friday...

Ordered 6/27. 16gb + case. USA.

Google, it was sorta funny but now I'm getting a little peeved.

Similar situation here. Ordered 16gb, no case on 6/29 and still have no charge or shipping email. I got the update email yesterday promising that it would be shipped by 7/19, but at this rate, I am rapidly losing hope. I've defended Google thus far, but if they don't get this out today (7/19), I will not be a happy camper.
