Despite High Price Tag, Google Nexus Q Media Device Sells Out Same Day Available

[dgstorm]

Well, this is an interesting turn of events. Earlier this morning we picked up a story regarding the new Google Nexus Q "media sphere" that the new device was now available on the Google Play Store. Since the device's cost of $299.99 seems a bit high to some, we figured we could post the story later this afternoon while we work on higher priority articles (sometimes you just have to develop a triage strategy for the daily news).

Surprisingly, the device has already sold out and is now saying it will ship in 2-3 weeks instead. Perhaps we underestimated the demand for the apparently intriguing device. Regardless, here is a link below if you would like to order one for yourself now. Sound off in the forums if you are excited about the Nexus Q.

I'm still not 100% sure why i'd want one of these - not for $300, anyways. Better have one heck of a high-end amp for that price.

I'm buying the $99 Vizio Google TV Box when released, a much better deal.

It may have sold out, but did they happen to mention how many they had to sell? lol

I think it's a nice idea, and when it comes down to $99 it may be worth it.

That's what I was thinking, too. They sold all 3!

I'd probably buy one if I had the time to use it and extra money.

Since all the attendies at the Google announcement got a Q for free, the $299 price for the rest of the world is to help offset that giveaway. I might pop for a Q at $199. For sure at $99.
