Nexus Madness

[sn00p]

Actually, one of the things that always irritated me about tethering in iOS was that to turn it on you had to display all the connection details on the screen, I never understood the logic of sharing that information with anybody who can see your screen just to turn it on.

I've been reading that people who ordered their nexus 4 later in the evening with 5-6 week estimated delivery have received theirs, I ordered within 2 minutes of it going on sale and nothing. Bit annoying.

So tempted to sell my iPhone 5 for one of these

clusterfuck of an ordering system. they've not even taken my payment yet, just pre-approved it

 

[Tyler@Ultimate]

They don't take payment until the phone is shipped. Says on your receipt

Really?

Why not?

Yeah, i ordered at 19:54. Was given the 5-6 week waiting time, and then had TNT deliver it Friday morning.

Still not got mine or had payment taken. Placed the order at 17:08. pretty annoyed now.

Watching xda forums, loads of people getting shipped emails, I see you're from bedford too and our nearest TNT depot is Wellingborough, I'm thinking maybe they haven't collected ours yet but should be this evening.

there's one guy on there who's got a phone and never had the payment taken. What a disaster or a system

Ive been keeping my eye on the nexus 7 for a while.

Was tempted to go blow £160 on the 16Gb but now i think im going to wait for the January sales and see if i can pick up a 32Gb 3G one.

Well I bought myself a Nexus 7 tablet last weekend and I'm well chuffed with it!!

It's the first Android device I've owned but already own an iPad 3, iPhone 4 and 5. There's going to be a huge market for a cheaper alternative to Apple products. In a way I prefer Apple's iOS for a phone and even for a tablet, it's slicker, simplistic in a good way and tactile. But Android is flexible, widgets are a great idea and offers all the same functions.

For a main tablet round the house I'll gladly take my iPad but for a relatively cheap, equally powerful, equally capable great tablet, I'm loving the Nexus.

Got my despatched Email finally. Payment still not taken though. So weird

 

[James172Cup]

I got my dispatched mail at 10.30 last night and the phone arrived this morning at 9. Wife took and wrapped it for xmas, even though I ordered and paid for it. Strange.

Got mine. checked the sim and I need to get a micro. put the old sim back in my Sensation XE and it's not working. I'd be less pissed off if i'd tried to cut it and messed it up. Orange want £75 to send my new sim by courier. LOL!!!! royal mail it is then. Look like I'm on PAYG until the new year

If you go into a shop they can do the transfer from normal SIM to micro SIM, had T-Mob/EE do that for me a few months back.

They will cut the old one which is now faulty
