nice score!

Nice find, i got a 64GB version for $399.
I could only find the 8GB for $300.. so it was kind of a no brainer for me.
I don't mind buying the older hardware like the A500. Sure newer better stuff will be coming out soon, but the a500 is good enough to last a year or two and perform well. Compare the $450 at release for the 8GB model with a few bugs in honeycomb 3.0 and acers implementation, to the super smooth 3.2 that you picked up for $229 (almost half price).
There was a time when i would aim to buy the newest and greatest. But theres always something newer, and always something greater. It seems more reasonable to wait until the kinks have been worked out, and there is a sale.

i also got my 8gb A500 from best buy for that same exact price on cyber monday. so far im very happy with the purchase!

Good find! I got mine from BB - the 8GB model for $230. I wish I got one six months earlier. Acer did a great job, and the full size USB port is awesome.

Nice find! I got mine at staples on black friday at 4 a.m for $299

I believe I could have gotten it for $400 5 or 6 months ago, and in retrospect wish I had. It's a great tablet.

I got the same model. I wish I had gotten a 16gb, but for the price this is very good.

I picked it up for the same price from Best Buy and I love it. Sure, it's only 8GB, but I have a 32GB card in it, 2x16GB Thumb Drives I picked up cheap, and a 1TB Buffalo drive that works fine with it. More storage than I could ever need for the tablet!
I picked up a USB hub for it and I can use the netbook mouse and a combination of the storage with it. I have a USB memory card reader that works as well. Nice being able to shoot pics on my DSLR and then edit them with PS Touch on the tablet.
Running the Honeylicious rom with ADW Launcher EX customized into a tab type of interface. Mizuu (the paid version does have the stacked icons on the home screen) gives me the movies from the storage.
All in all a great friggin tablet! I don't do alot of "gaming" tablet wise really so I doubt I will upgrade this thing unless Tegra 3 tablets really hit sub $300 mid 2012 like predicted.

[Q] Do 8 GB nexus 7 users feel cheated?

With announcement of 16GB Nexus 7 and 32GB Nexus 7, do 8GB Nexus users feel cheated? I own a 8GB version and have found it to be inadequate for keeping all games together, forget about songs and videos. Though I made a wrong choice, today's discontinuation of 8GB model makes me feel cheated.
Do you too?

Yea. I mean that's the kind of risk you take being an early adopter, but I really feel I should of either just gotten a 16GB model, or waited. But then again my 8GB model is working just fine. I really wish Google would have some trade-in system to let me upgrade to a 16GB model at least, even if for a little price.
I wonder how long it will take to start seeing cool stuff for only 16/32GB models now...

Of course, it hasn't been long since they where out and this happened. And its not like added anything new other than the memory.
A upgrade like what happened with the kindle fire is ok. They changed a few things
But i exchanged mine for a 16gb today lol so im cool now
It did have some screen lift and even though it was passed the exchange time frame office Depot hooked me up. You just got to know how to talk to people

Depends on what you use your tablet for. Granted I bought a 16gb version on release, Sam's didn't have the 8gb option, but I still have 11 gigs of space available on mine. I use mine to browse the Web and do some random things for work, I have a 10" Acer Iconia for my Multimedia needs around the house. When I travel I tend to use Netflix to stream content, and or I can throw about 3 hours worth of shows on it to watch on a plane or whatever and still stay well under the 8 gig mark. If you wanted something for multimedia purposes then you should have purchased something with more memory, but if you use the tablet in the way it was built for 8gb should be plenty of space.

Hell, everyone should feel cheated because they don't have microSD slots... I have a 2 yo gtab with 32gb and could have 64gb if I wanted

we all are in the same boat. yours got discontinued. ours got price dropped.

hey look at the bright side, at lease we dont get completely cut off from the face of the earth like the ipad gen 3 hahs

Wouldn't mind them throwing some extra Drive space our way though. Seems like a simple gesture, considering as y'all said, memory is the only difference.

I really feel disappointed at all =.=....
I will give Google $80~$100 more for a change my 16GB for 32GB + 3G with my all pleasure =.='

no
No. I chose the "8", I got the "8", and I paid for the "8". My choice all through. I could have waited and grabbed the "16" for the same price as it now turns out, but then I would have missed the pleasure I have had from it in the meantime. I would have felt far more cheated to have bought the "16" only to find only thirteen gigs useable.

Yes, I feel cheated, especially because I had my 8GB Nexus for only a month now. Sure, there's always such a risk but after such a short time?
Still, I made the right decision at the time.. 50 € for an additional 8 gigs is just plain ridiculous. And for the most part, the storage is sufficient for my needs which is browsing the web and gaming (except Bard's Tale with its whopping 3,35 GB - great game btw!). For everything else there's USB OTG with either a 32GB flash drive or a Transcend Storejet.
I would probably go for the 32GB Nexus now, though. The markup is still not justified, but more bearable for sure. I'd be willing to pay for it for not having to lug around external drives in the foreseeable future and be able to connect a battery pack while on the go.

I'd expect them to provide same attitude Apple made when they dropped the iPhone 2G with 4GB....
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_(original)
I should remind you early adaptors got store credit. and if Google continue offering 25$ I'd expect them to give credit to those who got their device price cut.

for the same price, former 8GB owners lost 8GB storage space while former 16GB owners lost 16GB storage space..
i would say 16GB owners got "cheated" more..
anyway its those kind of risks we took when buying an electronics product, just that this time it happened a bit too fast..

Got my nexus 7, 25$ play store credit and 10$ wallet credit. I'm perfectly fine

So stupid for people to feel cheated when technology has an extremely short life cycle now-a-days.

Im from eu. And i dont have 25$ credit. Simply i get the tablet after that promotion anyway i wouldnt put my credit card number to a private vpn to set it up. So ye i feel cheated since n7 16gb costs here 230eur..its 300$ ..now i could get 32 for that prize and even first month didnt pass after it started selling in my country.
You dont get if you think its about technology..adding a cheap flash memory is a technological progress? Kidding right?

The fact that you can run games with otg cable makes me not so much feeling cheated. However I am happy with my 8gb nexus 7

So true! I don't understand how people feel cheated...they made a decision based on the information at hand and found the 8 GB to be a good product and bought it. In the light of the recent HW upgrade and price drop, it would seem it was a bad decision....suck it up...I understand it feels unfair, but who said life is fair? Myself, I decided that 8 GB was not enough, and the 16 GB lacked 3G so I didn't want either of the options available....I investigated, and found the rumor about a 32 GB and a 3G version, and decided to wait. I'd rather wait for a while and get a product I'm 100% happy with, than settle for the next best thing, just because I wanna be "first"....

you're missing the point. Storage, while useful, is not that important, as long as the otg cables work. The HSPA+ though, is the most annoying omission. I would have paid $50 more for that if it had only been available. Somebody else said around here and I agree: I'd rather use up the tablet battery for 3G, and not my phone.
Also, didn't get $25 credit because I'm from the EU.

Problem for some of us was that waiting was not an option. I bought my 16GB during a trip to the US, because to get it here would have cost me $400. I could have waited for the next better version, but by that logic I'd never have a phone - there's always something better out next year. Turned out ok though, because this way I don't get to swim with the sharks in Jersey. (would post URL, not allowed).

My order is in

Well I took the plunge into the 3T after owning a Z3+ for two years. Was thinking of the normal 3 but my inner geek wanted the latest. Who here is also on the bandwagon? And all this development nonsense about not supporting is just stupid in my opinion, many people who never got the OP3 and have upgraded from much older devices including developers from other places will at some point.

I decided to go for the 3T and ordered this morning. Have been using the S6 Edge plus but feel it is limited because there aren't any real roms for it. Only roms are all dated not a big deal for me to use so waiting to get my new 3T next week.

Going to be a big upgrade from my Z3+ in which I was disappointed from day one but thought updates would sort battery and heat.
I ordered some cool cases and a full screen protector. They also do the neo hybrid case that I'll get too. There some of the best cases, have a look over at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/accessories/compatible-one-plus-3-t3501030/page1

Also ordered last night, waiting for it to ship like it's Christmas morning. Still using my LG V10, but I find the phone too large and heavy. I know the OP3T is similar sized, but still a bit smaller and much lighter. Aside from no SD card support, I'm hoping I can last 2-3 years on it if not more.

I ordered one last night at 1203pdt and got the ship notice about 30 mins ago. So hopefully will be herd this week if not early next week
Edit.
Mines expected to be herd by end of day thursday. Wooo

I don't think most people get 128GB just because they need the space, but because it doesn't have sd slot, so if 64GB isn't enough later on then you are screw.

If I hit that point, a nice format will clean things up :laugh:

I ordered mine! Should be getting it next Tuesday. I have the G5 from T-Mobile now and it just never got any development. And the camera loses all functionality when you start using the ROMs that are finally coming out for it.
I was thinking a pixel xl 128 but it's never in stock and too expensive. I'm just hoping they release a Android N beta in a week or two...But not a big deal if they don't....and release the camera libs so devs can make sure the stock camera works like it's suppose to.
I'm excited. I'm guessing it will only take a couple of months..maybe just weeks for the dev community to start coming with gas....unlike my G5 that took a billion years.

I put an order for the 128, my only real regret is the expected date says November 29. I think they sold out because if you look on the order page it says ships in 4 weeks. But now I'm worried if my order order changes from Nov 29 to Dec 29.
Selling my Galaxy S7 Edge on Swappa on the 21st paid for $453 of the $479 price tag. So I see it as just $25 for the upgrade. I call it an upgrade because I wasn't happy with the speed of the Exynos S7 I had, and that slippery glass back was something you'd always have to worry about and if you touch it even after washing your hands it just gets ugly.

Mine is shipped and got the shipping number.

I ordered at 12:02am and received a shipment notification at 7:16pm. Got to love DHL Express. I am in California.

I was going to, but decided against it. More expensive than OP and you cant buy sim free. I'll wait and order on Monday. Just trying to work out if it is worth the extra £30 for the 128gb. I never use it, so I might just go for the 64gb.

Thats interesting, I never thought about going into a store. The website was only showing pay for device in full and then adding a pay as you go sim on top. It is still more expensive that OP from what I have read, if it was the same price I would have done the pre-order.

£18 more expensive but if something happened to the mobile later down the line at least i could go instore .

That is a very good point! Making me re-consider now!

is it worth it to get AKG headphone and 256gb card for $100 more?

is it worth it to get AKG headphone and 256gb sd card for $99?

Well the street price of the 256GB EVO+ microSD is $200 and the headphones is $150 so if you actually want either of those it's good value. If you want both it's great value.

Got mine ordered, said would ship after the 20th - thought it was a good deal.

If I HAD 100$ I mightve... but I dont. So went for the free option. Didnt want to take the risk of waiting even a day to submit this and they run out or have a larger delay due to 1st submitted, 1st approved.
Now I may try to call them after the start of the month if I could upgrade. However for me. This is NOT a major thing. Imagine you losing a 256GB card.... thats quite a bit of loss. I have a 64GB now, which isnt full at all. Add that to internal memory and I would be fine. Even with my emulators.

i think its a awesome deal..the card and headphones alone

depend if you need it. the phone already have 64gb build-in, plus i already have 64gb microSD. that' enough for me. plus i also already have wired headset. that' why i didnt get the 99$ offer.

Yes, at $99, they are amazing value. Go for the deal.

IMO, definitely worth it if you have the spare change.

Like everyone else said it's a great deal if can spare the money. I was looking at 128GB cards which were coming to around $60-70 anyways. So I figured what the hell I can spare $30~ more and double the capacity and get the headphones too.
Put in another way, the cheapest brand new microSD card on Amazon right now is selling for $160, so if you don't really need it, you might as well get it any re-sell both the items.

As long as you have the money, definitely. For what you're paying for, each item ALONE is worth over $100 a piece. You can always sell the part you don't want, to make back the money... and then some. I've been considering it for the microSD card alone, as I've honestly never been a huge fan of over-the-ear headphones.
That, and I don't currently have an microSD card since my S6 doesn't have a microSD slot. Got the 64GB version and I'm almost out of space, big part because of the amount of pics/vids I take, so a huge SD card would be nice.

Yes

I did pre order it. But Best Buy released today

If you need that much space and need an ok pair of cans - id say yes but please keep in mind you can find the card for 30 to 40 bucks cheaper elsewhere and equivalent cans for less.
The resale for both will also be closer to 200 as no one is buying those cans for 150.
