For US Residents who missed out on when the Nexus 4 originally went on sale on Google Play, mostly due to the checkout process crashing and generally not working properly due to all the traffic, there is some more good news for you this morning as well.

Unfortunately this is for US residents only so anyone else waiting to get one outside of the USA have to wait a bit longer.

The LG Nexus 4, the Nexus 10 tablet and the Nexus 7 32GB version tablet.
