Yeah, I confused the nanosim with the microsim.
Turns out I'm already using microsim (w/ adapter)

I'm amazed at how awful this product launch was....
No advertised launch time, no pre-orders.
No notice that they've sold out with a estimate of when they'll be back in stock.
No option to buy and just wait til they get stock to have yours shipped.

I hate Apple products, but I envy their announcement/release timeframes as well as how they roll out their products.

I'm hoping they get more in soon. I heard not till January but dunno how accurate that is. Guess they didn't anticipate such a high demand as the previous Nexus phones weren't top sellers. Did anyone order a Nexus 10? I'm thinking of getting one to try and flipping it but I already have a Transformer Prime.

I doubt it'll be that long. I think you're right that they weren't anticipating demand, but I also expect they'll be prepared to release more shortly; they typically launch in November in order to get the Christmas/Holiday season. With such low margins on this device, it's not a huge surprise that LG wouldn't have really ramped up production, especially since the N4 is essentially competing with the twice-as-expensive fraternal twin Optimus G.

Now that Google and LG have proof that it'll sell like a motherfucker, I think they'll probably be producing more.


Either that or I'm totally wrong and we're all fucked. Yay for being fucked!
