Google's new Nexus tablet for 2014, the Nexus 9, seems to have hit some delays worldwide, but U.S. consumers will be happy to know that the tablet is set to release on time on home turf.

It looks like U.K. customers who were expecting the Nexus 9 to land on November 3 through Amazon will have to wait until December to receive their tablets from the retailer. Reasons for the delay are unknown, but as with all launches, you can bet it has something to do with supply.

The HTC-manufactured Nexus 9 tablet will still release in America on time, however. A look at the Google Play store shows that there are no shipping delays, and buyers can pre-order the tablet with the guarantee it will ship on November 3 as intended. Of course, dates may change, as time drags on and inventories get milked, but at the time of this article,Amazon in the United States is taking pre-orders with no specific ship date listed.

For those wondering, a 16GB Google Nexus 9 runs $399 for the Wi-Fi-only model, while a 32GB Wi-Fi variant costs $479. The LTE version is only available in the 32GB option and is naturally more expensive at $599.

It hasn't quite caught on like the smaller, more budget-oriented Nexus 7 tablet usually has, but the Nexus 9 looks poised to have a successful run.

The Nexus 9's 8.9-inch IPS LCD display pushes out a resolution of 2048X1536 pixels, which, for those interested, comes out to a density or around 281 pixels per inch. It's certainly not the highest on the block, and you'll find many smartphones and tablets with higher pixel densities, but don't mistake that for the screen being a slouch. It's good.

Underneath the hood the Nexus 9 sports a 64-bit NVIDIA Tegra K1 Dual Denver processor clocked a 2.3GHz, 2GB RAM, an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera, and a 1.6-megapixel front-facing shooter. Other than that, the tablet is fairly standard, and being a Nexus tablet, comes chock full of Android privilages. For starters, the tablet will feature Android 5.0 Lollipop right out of the box and as always, the Nexus-branded tablet will receive updates in a timely manner straight from Google. No OEMs, no carriers. Although it does mean the Nexus 9 runs a stock vanilla version of the Android.
