What I was saying in short was "count me in". So, your still in charge and we are waiting for the invite
if anyone's got a spare invite left I'd be more than glad to receive one.
As a webdev I've been dying to play with this since I heard about it; - so here am I on this list.
I'd love an invite too... ya know, if there goin spare..
me too i missed out on this i didnt get an invite ao if anyone wants to offer me one send us a pm
I have about 5 or 6 people working on getting me an invite however this is what I have been told...
This is directly from inside google. I have some contacts there who have "sent me an invite" however when you invite people in to Wave this is the note that comes with the invite..
Google Wave is more fun when you have others to wave with, so please nominate people you would like to add. Keep in mind that this is a preview so it could be a bit rocky at times.
Invitations will not be sent immediately. We have a lot of stamps to lick.
Happy waving!
might take them a day or so to get to yours there is no immediate invite yet but this should be much faster than requesting via the normal external path
Count me in too!
i would like invite too
I'd really like an invite too........if anyone has any spares
Thanks.
Hey guys!
Am looking to save some money! Perhaps to buy an Optimus 2X.
I just signed up for Amazon referrals.
If anyone out here uses Amazon regularly or if you are planning to buy something off Amazon within next few days, please use my referral link!
http://t.co/zdBfI03
You could pass the link to your friends and family too. xD
Thanks!
PS: It sounds like spam but duh, since this is off-topic and hopefully am planning to get something related to xda, I hope nobody is offended.
Just got some new ebooks... from brian tracy and anthony robbins-

Using my link? Wow, thanks. If you didn't use my link this time, remember to use it next time. xD
I'm a regular, but I hate clicking links. So yea. Also I think it's against forum rules to post referral links.
If you want to save more, and have a university ID, you can get amazon prime for free.

I doubt there are any rules about referrals in the off-topic forum. That's why I posted here instead of other places.
If you hate clicking links, you could just bookmark it even. lol. Just saying.
I do not use Amazon for my own purchases. I live outside US.
Getting an .edu email elsewhere is easy although my college doesn't have an email system for students.
I'm not a regular there at all. I've ordered two things, both of which were sub-sellers through Amazon.
A strategy guide from 1999 and a key fob have been my purchases.
I will probably order more from Amazon.

Yea, just switch to something else. No matter what you switch to, you are always saving money. At the end you end up with Geico anyway though.

So pretty much anyone who hasn't been able to put in a order (like myself) are not going to be able to order the device for a long time.
Thanks for nothing LG.
I guess I'm stuck phoneless for 3 weeks, or whenever the next batch will be availabe...
But I am also sort of glad that I wasn't able to get my order in so we could see if Google will add the Nexus 4 to AOSP as well as fix up some of the thermal issues.
Question for you... do you even read forums before making a new thread? The email you just quoted has been posted numerous times...

It really doesn't. Also the E-mail doesn't say what you seem to think it does. Within 3 weeks means any time from today up untill 3 weeks. I'm not overly optomistic about the time frame myself but the thread title is still misleading at best.
your thread created privileges should be taken away...
Good thing I didnt sell my GNex yet.
Why are ppl in the states so crazy to get it even at the price of over $600 at ebay nearly double...can't they wait for the next wave just few weeks ahead..most other country don't even have play store to purchase that may sound reasonable

I am totally at a loss with Google on this? Total and epic failure from a company that prides itself on it's meticulous attention to detail and Engineers every little thing. How the hell am I supposed t believe that the company that can crunch massive data sets, route the quickest path to ones home, serve massive amounts of AD's and multimedia can blow it in running a simple Cart driven eCommerce business and fail to anticipate all these fairly obvious headaches coming to light. It really boggles the mind?
I got the Backorder letter too, but even that was very vague and provides no level of detail that can be useful. Already there is conflicting stories of folks getting the bo letter and a shipment letter, some who made two separate orders are left wondering which order is bo'd?
If I had to think out loud, I would surmise that in the effort of cutting costs down for this product they used there F-Team of managers for this product launch ... seriously!
*A notification system that failed to notify!
*No coherent product launch time (Midnight? 9EST? 9PST?) even when we fished around for details and the rumour mill had it at 9PST the damn store opened 30minutes earlier.
*No clear communication on stock levels
*No pre-order ... my god how stupid are the folks who ran this botched job!
*Not enough inventory on hand
*No cart limits like 1 per person or 2 per person ... I could add 100 to my cart and the thing would go through
*No cart queuing/ reserving/ holding mechanism ... ticketmaster holds a ticket for 5-10 minutes the instant it lands on your cart
*Cart/ Site kept crashing
*They didn't update the site to sold-out until late at night leading to the F5 phenomena, with people wasting time without knowing whether they can make an order or not ... fully knowing anyone after the initial 10 minutes after opening the Play store would be on backorder ... might as well keep selling now it makes no more difference at this point at least alleviate those who can't purchase now to join a queue and keep selling. What will happen now is they will launch in spurts resulting in the same level of chaos ... let people join the queue now if they will be backordered in anycase.
*For those of us who got the chance to order the assumption was that they would be able to make a shipment ... no reason why the system would fluctuate from in stock to of stock during the nightmare purchase with all the obstacles it had ... WHY THE HELL DID WE GET BO'd! If there system wasn't as one to one as it seemed with all it's rigidity in how much you can add to cart and it failing during purchase because it became out of stock ... then how the hell did you guys oversell?
No sincere apology, no corrective actions are being laid out ... and that token free shipping in no way salvages this horribly broken Play Store. Heads have to roll ... seriously! I've read stories of better managers/ CEO's, project leads being fired for so little ... the folks who have done an outstanding job of tarnishing the Google brand and have been doing so seeing that this type of nonsense is not new with those familiar with the Play Store ... I am totally new to the Android verse coming from WP7.5, BB7, and Maemo ... this first impression of how Google runs this store is not what I always imagined of Google which I love and use from Email to Google+ ... I even enjoyed GWave, I put up with the Buzz mess up ... but Play is such a horrible brand tarnishing experience and Google needs to improve there retail program or get out of it and let the pro's at Amazon handle it.
This is a joke, I can't believe it Google has been running a psy-ops campaign over at the Play Store to ruin there hard fought branding of Engineered Excellence. I hate the Apple verse and the perception that they created whatever is the next best thing when rather they made a incremental improvement on the natural progression of a product life cycle ... but give credit where it is due they are a behemoth when it comes to the retail experience and the level of customer service ... night and day difference in these experiences Google, please rectify it. It makes it silly to have a building full of the brightest people who can't attempt to sell something online when you dominate on the Internet... it is a running joke this Play Store. Heads must roll!

Agreed with the others - this letter has been discussed ad nauseam in at least 2 other very large threads, so much so that one person that started another thread has already (as of earlier this afternoon) started a Google Docs spreadsheet where they are analyzing data entered by volunteers from this forum so that graphs and statistical analyses can be made correlating purchase time to shipping confirmation as well as how this data pertains to the email notification you wrote about.
Mods, please close this thread.

Yes I had been reading about people's experiences with this backorder email for several hours already, since it was distributed around 3:00-4:00pm EST this afternoon, and then I see this thread title, and obviously I had to assume that someone had some NEW information, linking to a story at Engadget where perhaps they had confirmed that no additional units would be shipped for at least 3 weeks. But then I find, it was just a useless rehash of news and information the rest of us have been looking at and discussing for nearly 7 hours in other threads.
WTF.

Yes but even backorders take "up to 3 weeks" (don't be optimistic). So people who haven't been able to order will obviously have to wait longer than that.

x1000.
Get over it
I'm sure there are plenty of people out there that haven't purchased anything on the Play Store before that may have questions about how it works and what to know.
Discussion about the ordering and ridiculous shipping when purchasing through the play store!
We all know last year was a complete flop. Hopefully Google got their act together
Standard shipping is/was $11.99
I support this thread Chris. Don't be sad
I agree last year the shipping thread was awesome and helped a lot of people.

But until then, it's not needed. That's why I close this thread for now. When the N5 is released, just report this thread and ask it to be opened again.
I'm also gonna clear this thread now, when I'm already here
EDIT: Even though it's not yet released, I will open it now. BUT please keep this thread clean/on topic
Hopefully this will ship tomorrow!

Can we get this out of the way before it is posted about a million times:
1) If you actually get your order to go through (unlikely but possible), you may or may not get charged. Then a few days later your order may or may not get randomly cancelled.
2) 2-day shipping means when it is shipped you will get it in 2 days. It doesn't account for processing time.
3) After you order, it may take hours or days for you to get order confirmation
4) Some people will get shipping notifications but some won't. Do NOT call Google to ask when it will get shipped. They have no clue and will just make up information.
5) Getting the shipping notice means they created a shipping label but it may take days for it to actually ship.
6) Don't read these order threads on XDA because it will just make you go mad. If you get a order confirmation, sit back and relax because there is nothing you can do but wait for it to come. Google will not ship these in any type of order. And calling Google will just increase the chances they screw up your order. Relax while everyone on XDA freaks out and claims the world is coming to an end. Then enjoy your N5 when it comes a week or two later.

Do a screeenshot the moment order confirmation appears and blur our important personal info asap, upload to your favorite image hosting service, and memorize the url.
So that you can post it as many times as you want.
