My Nexus 7 arrived at Youshop on Sat (NZ Time), got my email and paid this afternoon - $22 + $6 extra coverage fee.

Now to wait.

My Nexus 7 was shipped from Youshop on the 1st August. Apparently there is a delay due to volume of packages at the moment and there may be a 2-3 day delay.. Hope my package missed the delay :(

Looks like Amazon via YouShop could be a bargain. I just got an email from PBTech giving the NZ retail price for the 16 gig WiFi Nexus 7 II version as $551

Thanx.  You upgraded  it I take it after the app was put on.  It works fine on my upgraded N4 so it may be a Android  4.3 thing for new installs..  I've asked the tech people at Stuff..

I'm gonna be in the states late September and am thinking of picking one of these up. Does anyone know if the American 4G model will work with 2 Degrees 3G here?

(as my username explains, I know nothing about this stuff so I thought I'd better check before wasting $$)

Mine just turned up today!
It feels soooo much thinner than the last one
Screen is lovely and clear, especially web browsing.

First impressions? Not disappointed coming from the original nexus 7

My 32GB Nexus 7 has just arrived in NZ - should be playing with it Wednesday night (hopefully).

Also ordered a case for $0.01 on Amazon - should be about $20 once through youshop.

Did you have to pay customs? I was looking at getting a 32gb model but it worked out to be over the $400 threshold (incl shipping costs) ?? Did you get it via Amazon  -- Youshop?

USD269.99 + Free Shipping = 335.619667 NZD

Even with Youshop Fee (28) = 363.619667

How did you get over 400? I ordered from Google Play
