...snip..like i said in that other thread,.. amazon burned me too many times with their failures to actually deliver on pre-orders. if i had to choose i'd blame amazon over MS. i really wouldn't doubt they do that "plane" thing where they sell more than have with some expectation around cancelations. or maybe they do it on purpose thinking that any failed pre-order on amazon will likely turn into an amazon sale eventually but a missed pre-order will turn into someone else's sale.
Mine has yet to ship... (I think I'll be fine)
If this is affecting a large amount of people, this is a large screw up. Obviously Microsoft/Amazon shouldn't have sold systems they couldn't deliver, and it would have been nicer if people learned this weeks ago instead of the day before launch. Hopefully the time estimate is extremely conservative and people still get them soon.
i dunno. i just know fudge amazon.
