Exclamation Pre-ordered from J&R? Come in for status!

Since it seems that us lonely J&R pre-orderers are being left in the dust I figured I would start this post so we can share any info we've gotten.

I order mine July 4th, got a backorder email July 11th.

Nothing since...

Thanks, I was thinking about this myself. The Play store order thread is too fast for us J&R shoppers to get any discernible information to each other.


Anyway when I talked to them this morning they told me they have no information but they guess they should have it in there warehouse within the next two week.
Don't be fooled by my thanks meter. .Most of those posts were just useless one liners.

Yeah I was trying to skim that to see what other people said with JR but it's too hard.

Lets hope they get them in soon, if not I'll monitor if my local Gamestop has some to go pick up within the next week or so.

Canceled my JR order and picked one up at Sam's Club today (didn't even have a pre-order). It wasn't a hard choice for me considering A.) they supposedly got 1000 orders with only 100 in the initial shipment, and B.) being in NY, I had to pay tax.

They're a reputable company, but I hope some of you aren't waiting another month to get yours.

Yeah good point, I didn't pay any tax either or shipping... Might as well hold off.

Like someone said in the other thread "let them early birds work through all the rom/rooting tweaks. It will be all ready to go when we get ours!

Yeah, I plan on unlocking and flashing a new ROM as soon as I get mine. Problem is, there probably won't be any decent ROMs had I gotten it next week. I will gladly wait until developers get their hands on theirs.

Plus I bet a lot of impatient people will cancel there preorders from J&R and we'll move up on in line quickly enough.

Same here. Haven't heard anything other than a backordered email.

I'm going to run stock JellyBean for a good while.
