French play store is selling it but it's buggy.

Fun to see that even Google can't sometimes handle load.



Google has regularly demonstrated an inability to handle large volumes of buyers. The Google IO ticket sales have been a joke the last two years.


The problem is google wallet/checkout, it's a joke. Worst payment processor ever.


Huh? I/O sold out in half an hour. They seemed to handle it pretty efficiently.


The 16gb N 4 version sold out in Germany after 10 minutes... and the 8gb is sold out now after 15 minutes.


Here it kept swithing between "in stock" and "later", and if you add it on your basket you can't order it and the basket is flushed.

Oh well, time to go to work :)


We had the same problems. Lots of pissed off people in the forums. I wanted a 16gb but didn't get it and have a 8gb now. Oh well...

I'm surprised Google didn't manage this better.
