Seems like everyone wants to get themselves a new shiny Nexus 7 and so far shipping of these devices hasn’t gone well. Most retailers have failed to ship the device on the date they were supposed to. Sam’s Club is now accepting pre-orders and saying they will ship July 17th to July 20th.
Who knows if it will actually ship on that date but if you want to pre-order just click here. The 8GB version will cost you $200 and the 16GB version will cost you $249. In my opinion you might as well dish out the extra $50 for double the storage. Let us know if you pre-ordered yours yet or if you are going to anytime soon.

I started out as a Blackberry user and once that phone was stolen I went to Radio Shack looking at the HD2. Blackberry wasn't cutting it and admittedly I didn't know much about technology, or Android at that point so I looked at the phone with the biggest screen. I'm a media guy and I like to have it mobile. At that point the HD2 had a massive screen and that's exactly what I wanted. Immediately when I got there the manager talked me out of getting a windows device and talked me into Android. I didn't know much about CPUs, Android versions, or what a good spec sheet even looked like. I settled with the Samsung Sidekick and immediately began to hate Android. Probably from the ugly skin and the terrible specs that device had. I started looking how to make the device better and found XDA. That's when it all changed. I started learning about rooting, and flashing. From there I would go on to come across Android websites. How I found Land of Droid was through Twitter. I used #android once and John mentioned me asking if I would like to write for an Android blog. I was hesitant at first but I began to immediately love it. I am now a huge technology fan in all aspects not just mobile. Now when looking for a device I will now know that there are more to specs than a screen size.
