I rang Google last week after I had ordered mine as I initially entered the wrong shipping address and needed to change it. While I was on the phone I asked when I could expect delivery. I was told that a delivery date was not yet know but I would definitely receive the Nexus 7 this month. Fingers crossed

If you don't mind me asking, how did you find that out ? Everytime I ask GameStop they claim they will get them July 31st.

It's in my receipt, and the manager told me that was the date... Receipt actually said something about "2nd wave" then aug 7th...

Interesting, I preordered mine in the Gamestop store on 6/29, so maybe I'm in the first wave. My receipt doesn't have a date or a wave #.

I called Google this morning to ask about changing my pre-order from an 8 GB model to 16 GB.  The guy I talked to looked up my 6/29 pre-order date, and said he can't change my order, because it's too close to the ship date, and I'd lose my position in the queue.  He said I could make another pre-order, and refuse delivery of my existing pre-order.

This hints that N7 shipping is imminent.

I guess I'll stick with the 8 GB.  The apps I plan to load + Google pre-loads should still leave me with 3-4 GB free storage.

Thanks for the update, I never thought to call Google directly.  I'm hearing July 12th still on various other forums, which is just 3 days away, so hopefully we'll start getting emails soon enough with tracking numbers.

just a thought, you might have to wait longer for the time being but you might regret not going 16 later if that's what you wanted

When my discussion with the Google agent ended, he asked if there was anything else he could do for me.   I said no, unless he could tell me the ship date.  He said he wished he could do that, and added he's waiting to get his N7, himself.

I should be OK with 8 GB.  If it's not enough, I'll give it to one of my kids, & upgrade to a 16 GB model.

Rumors seem to be everywhere.  I remember one from 3 weeks ago that said Google already had 600,000 units on hand.  If that one was true, wouldn't we be knee deep in tablets by now?  Just wondering out loud...

I'm still wondering whether pre ordering is a good idea and if I could have got it any faster I had waited to buy it in store. I suppose only time will tell.
