you ordered yours 8 minutes before me, wow. I checked my status on google wallet, it doesn't say backorder, but I'm not sure that makes any difference.
I placed my order (now backordered) at 3:50pm CST
I ordered mine at 11:40 a.m. EDT and still haven't seen any type of notification.
Got mines in at 11:48. I hope mines isn't pushed to backorder, I NEED a phone now, as my Galaxy Nexus will be sent for repair soon.Placed my order at 11:43 am on the east coat on Tuesday! If I get that email I'm canceling my order. In this day and age something like this is inexcusable for a company the size of Google!

Same here , nothing so far except a BS email about apps from the play store. What a tease...

I just got the backordered email for my 16gb order placed at 1:06p EST. Play still says shipping estimate is today, and wallet still says pending.
OUCH! we should expect ALOT of people getting this dreaded email then.
Just got a notice from google that it is back ordered, THIS SUCKS!! I got a confirmation letter saying it was shipping 3-5 business days but now this?!?!?
I've noticed some of you guys are saying that you're going to cancle your order if or already are on back order, but lets think of some the of the positive possibilites!
- free 2 day shipping! yea, its only $15 extra back in your pocket, but it's something.
- Discounted or free price tag? you never know! alot can go down in 3 weeks, they might tally up the number of back orders and think "Damn! we screwed up! we have to do something to prevent the loss of thousands of consumers."
-Play store gift card?
-Free nexus Q!? who knows!
apple did the same thing unfortunately with the iphone 5, I have 2 friends that ordered on launch day and it went from in-stock to backordered, I was lucky enough to receive one from the first batch, I guess I won't be so lucky this time.

I completely agree with you sean76. This is looking like Google trying to be very Apple-like in it's marketing and just doesn't have a clue how to make it work. They are very different companies and just like when Apple tries to do something that is very Google-ish (like search or maps) they fail miserably.
Well I've got tracking info on my order from UPS.com. Scanned at Louisville at 1:56PM EST. I just can't believe all of the trouble Google is having with these orders though. You'd think that they'd be better prepared, its really disappointing.
