Nexus 7 16GB Now Shipping 3-4 Weeks Out

Since Google started shipping the Nexus 7 tablets to those that pre-ordered them shortly after the Google I/O announcement, there have been reports of charges disappearing from credit cards, shipping notices never showing up, and Google support lines going unanswered. According to a tweet by ZDnet's own James Kendrick earlier today, his Nexus 7 has been in limbo since pre-ordering it, and a call to Google support today simply came back with a recorded message saying, "Unable to discuss individual orders."

Today, the Google Play store is now showing shipping times of the 16GB Nexus 7 out 3 to 4 weeks, up from the previous 1 to 2 weeks. The 8GB model is still showing 1 to 2 weeks.

It seems the 16GB model is proving to be a bit more popular than the 8GB model, presumably due to fears of filling precious storage with movie and game downloads from the Play store.
