If you were dead set on ordering the Nexus Player (http://www.engadget.com/2014/10/15/google-nexus-player/) this weekend, you're about to be disappointed. Google has quietly halted pre-orders (https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=nexus_player) of its Android TV media hub because it has "not been approved" by the FCC -- the company would be in trouble with US regulators if it took your hard-earned dollars for something it can't ship. There aren't any hints as to when the Nexus Player will get the all-clear, but you can be sure that we'll keep our eyes peeled. Hopefully, the approval arrives before November 3rd so that you can get that Android TV set-top box on time.
