Looks like one of my timed out orders went through during the chaos. Woohoo!

Not a bad price in the end. $20 for shipping is acceptable.

Anyone have a proper Canadian link? All I am seeing is the American.

Was going to buy a Nexus 10 but:

1. The shipping tack on.
2. The fact that Google Wallet doesn't work on ie8 here at work, although the error message tells me it is supported.
3. The price all in being within $100 of an iPad after shipping.
4. Reviews saying that this thing isn't a killer yet. Maybe in a few months.

Ya, pass.

I keep getting the message "add to cart" and when I actually click on it I get an error message. How frustrating. Probably happened 10 times now.

This should be the proper canadian link:

https://play.google.com/store/device...s_4_16gb&hl=en

Should say CA$359.00

Did you get an email? I think this happened to others and they got a confirmation email.

So I'm assuming you guys bought your Nexus' from the American site, via hidden Canadian IP, because I can't seem to "buy" or "add to cart." I'm using the link above that was supplied by Worth.

You can't add to cart because they sold out 10 minutes after they became available, so everyone just sees "Coming Soon" now.

Damn. I was hoping that wouldn't be the case. Oh well...I can wait.

Can't wait to hear what you guys have to say about it. Mostly curious about the battery life, storage (cloud usage) and speed over network and wifi.

Randomly checked at Noon and was able to purchase an 8GB version. Apparently they are manually clearing out duplicate orders so availability was popping up now and then.
