Good news for those who are concerned about the internal size, Recognized Developer Chainfire has come out with an app that allows you to use a microUSB adapter and a connecting USB port to plug in a USB key into the tab and 'fake' it to think its mass storage!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...6 825&page=24

just scroll down a bit and read and the news is all there. so get your 64gb USB keys ready!!

Wait a second, Someone here mentioned that they chose the more frugal option of going to Staples.ca and ordering it for $259 + tax and no shipping fee. When I am trying to order it directly from Google's Wallet website, It's $256 including tax and shipping AND the $25 Google Play credit which is by far much better; Amidoingsomethingwron g?

NO! Google play has changed the "Pre-Order Now" button to "Order Now", and on the weekend I checked "When will my order ship?" and it told me that the first round of orders were shipping that day and the rest would ship in the next 3 days.

I am too excited to wait!

Guys, just cancel your orders with Google. You can do this by removing your credit card information from Google Wallet (assuming they haven't charged you yet) or you can reverse the charge by the credit card company, which will intercept the shipment (not that they have shipped any to Canada yet...).

I got tired of waiting, and just picked one up at a local NCIX store instead - for less too since I didn't have to pay the bullshit $20 shipping fee. Google really ****ed this up...

TONS of retailers already have them on the shelves.

I ordered on july 5th! I got an email, like JUST NOW.

And yesterday, when Dillon posted, I sent google an email about my order along the lines of "I agreed to pay $20 shipping so I could have the Nexus 7 before anyone else, or at least at the same time, hence PRE-order. Where is mine? People are already picking it up in stores?"
So maybe they shipped mine cause I was annoying
