Got the mail that the Nexus 4 is available at 9:39am, by then it was already sold out for 20mins (Germany)... a bit unlucky, today being the only day this week where i had an unskippable meeting at 9. This launch was a big fail and especially if the shortage was planned, this will backfire at Google. You cant announce a big product launch (at a bargaining price) and then just have a few thousand units available (it cant be more, i was quite succesful in the Touchpad fire sales last year which lasted longer). Additionally the 9am launch (on a working day) wasnt even announced beforehand and google should have known (at least from E-Mail notification subscriptions) that demand outstrips supply by far. Anyway, hope they can handle my scraping traffic now, waiting for new ones ;).
