Google has just let us know that it is delaying the launch of the Nexus Q as it works to improve the device. The Nexus Q order page on Google Play has been taken down, and now simply leaves customers with a note that the device “is coming soon.”

Imagine for a half-second what would happen if Apple ever did this. Announce a brand new product at a huge venue, then a month later suddenly and mysteriously put it on hold, which essentially means they’re killing it before it ever gets released.
