Google’s new Nexus 7 tablet has been a highly anticipated product and it appears the excitement has gotten to the retailers and resellers. Google had slated the product to hit the market in mid-July. However, retailers seem to have jumped the gun and started selling the product online, as reported by The Verge. This is at a time when Google officially claims that the product is not out for sale yet. One of the online stores to sell the product was Adorama. They were selling the 16GB ASUS Google Nexus 7 at a price of $249.99 (approximately Rs. 14,000). Another site to sell the product was EBuyer. Now, Google seems to have slammed the brakes on this and have asked Adorama to stop sales; however, there is the option for pre-orders and the product might only start shipping after the second half of the month.
