I did cancel and reorder, but no success. My order is still pending at pre-order since Dec 12th.
Lurker1999 said: Any way to 'grease the wheels' so to speak? I didn't do the cancel and reorder trick so many here did and my order from 12/3 is actually recorded as a pre-order for 12/5 and 12/6 now (although there's only a single order confirmed by Google).

I get the feeling Google will not re-open for orders until after Xmas.
Glad I got mine. I like it. I don't mean to tantalize, but those of you who ordered will be happy with yours when you get it I expect.

Instead of cancelling my order (dated 12/3 which is showing as pre-order 12/6) I asked my friend to order one (this order shows as pre-order dated 12/12).

I went to the website and it looked like I had to order a plan to get the sim. Any suggestions?
For sims, you can get a bunch of any flavor off of eBay.
You cannot activate this or any other T-Mobile prepaid plan without an activation code. This activation code only comes with T-Mobile SIMs that you get through the mail from T-Mobile. They don't give them out in stores. There are activation kits at WalMart too, but I've never seen them there. I would not count on "any flavor off eBay" working, it is unlikely to come with an activation code.
Not sure what you are getting at. You have to get UNUSED sims off eBay or wherever. Those will mostly come in kits. Even if not, you pop the sim in and call the company to activate/pay for service. Done. Not sure if I can post links to forums here, but here is a method of how to do it.
How does the Nexus 4 compare to Galaxy Note 2? Im debating on which one to get.

Taco said: Forget T-Mobile, screw them. Wouldn't give me a functioning unlock code when I went overseas (finally bought one off eBay before I got my new Nexus 4!). This after being a loyal contract payer for 10-yrs. Go to the plethora of pre-paid vendors out there (they actually use T-Mobile and ATT towers typically). I have H2O mobile in right now, also have a Straight Talk sim/contract card waiting next. So Straight Talk will work with a GSM phone? Straight Talk is owned by Tracphone (and same people as Net 10, etc). I've heard their customer service is really bad. What do you think? This says they also have a $30 plan.

i order 2 x 8Gb and 1 x 16gb, get my items today, but it's 3 x 16Gb nexus 4, should i call they to fix to the correct order or they out of 8gb version so send me 16gb version?
Uhh...why would you complain about that? Am I missing something?

I ordered an 8 and 16 on 4/27 but got two 16s today. Packing ship showed 2 16s. Original receipt showed 8/16, was only charged original amount, so I guess they ran out of 8s maybe.

Me too. Looks like google is being Secret Santa this year and give free upgrade to people who ordered 8G. 8G is still sold out. They are shipping 16G for the 8G price. Yeah...........

That's cool. I ordered and received my 16gb. Why did I order the 16gb one?
The phone is good so far. I like it. Only thing I don't like the battery is running out too fast. I need to charge it every day.

I was wondering the same thing myself. I ordered, was charged for and received my 16gb Nexus 4 last week. Perhaps GOOG, in the spirit of Christmas, will refund our $50 "overpayment," but somehow I doubt it.

I'm not the lucky one. Reordered on Dec 12. Unlikely to make it before Christmas.
Very disappointed now!

I checked with Straight Talk- website and CS: for a Tmobile network SIM they only have a regular SIM, not a micro-sim. What is everyone doing? Getting a regular one and cutting it to micro-sim? Or is there a way to get a StraightTalk micro-sim card that runs on the Tmobile network?

My Nov 27th order for a 16GB had not yet shipped. A specialist at Google Play looked into it for 5 days (5 business days, even), and finally determined this evening that my credit card had not gone through. Could I please provide a new card? I was also given the option to cancel.
I cancelled
My AT&T order for a SGS3 (heavily discounted) came through approximately 36 hours after I placed it. I've been using (and enjoying) it for two days. The long weekend is enough time to Super-Nexus it (see Youtube)

There are now two separate entries in my play history for a 16GB Nexus but both with the same long order number but dated on 12/3 and 12/28. And there is now a pre-authorization for the full amount as of 12/28 on my credit card which has not posted. Anyone else have this happen to them?

There is still one entry like for most of them but the date is updated as 12/28 and pending transaction in the credit card on 12/28. Hope they ship it today for us.
