Zx1 Release date Kodak is saying that the Zx1 will be released in April-does anyone know why Amazon says if you preorder it will be sent on May 15? !

BUMP. Same question. I've been waiting awhile to get even a tiny camcorder b/c I figure wait as long as you can, then buy what's current. Some stuff I'll want to do, not sure if I can wait any longer than mid April. Anyone from Amazon please comment...

I'll BUMP it too. Was hoping to grab one off Amazon this month - May is too late for me due to my travel plans. Please let us know if May 15 is the real date or not!

Seems the Kodak site has changed, it now says "Available in May", so the May 15 release date is looking likely. Too late for me, I guess I'll have to look for a different option. :-(

So r u saying it's safe to order now, and we all could receive it sometime in April?This CAM looks so awesome! How does everyone else feel about it? Any comments??

This is what Kodak told me: "Retail availability [is] second half of April for the Kodak Zx1"This is what Amazon sent me: "Once this item has been released and we receive copies, we will be able to ship it to you. It is not uncommon for there to be a delay of several weeks between the release and distribution of a new publication." (it looks like a standard answer they use for books and other items)

looks like this will be the special value for 4/19 on qvc, from what they are saying early it seems like the price may be a little cheaper than here but you have shipping and tax so will probably end up costing more.

looks like this bad boy is already in consumers hands overseas. I pre-ordered mine... I really would like to see the delivery date move closer, i am paying for overnight shipping to make sure I have it for a memorial weekend trip!!! come on Kodak... come on amazon!!! i really want this new gadget!Many of the sites now list the release date as May 11th... actually ship by may 11th... I hope that Amazon gets 'em out fast.

I don't think Amazon really does that, or at least they haven't done it with any of the other E-P1 related items. When they get some in stock, they ship them, without letting anyone know beforehand.So those of us who have preordered don't know anything you don't (although I heard that a few 17mm kits have arrived in the U.S., so it may be soon).

Ordered D800Ethe first day on the morning of Feb 7th, still no word on when it will arrive. Can't really fault Amazon for having trouble with Nikon's supply chain, but it does seem irresposible to keep taking orders (you can still backorder it as of today) when you can't tell folks who ordered it 4 MONTHS AGO when to expect it.

Shouldn't zs3 still be under warranty since it just came out 2-3month? I own both zs3 and tx1 (wx1's brother), and zs3's sharper pictures blows both tx1/wx1 under exposed pictures out of the water! the only thing that tx1/wx1 has over zs3 is low light, high iso images (new exmor r sensor and 6 stacking pictures), and easy panorama picture taking. I keep both tx1 and zs3 for different modes. zs3 for outdoor and flash pictures, and tx1 for low light, high iso pictures.

According to the facebook page (www.facebook.com/Tamashii.USA) it has been released in Japan but not in the US yet, looks like we don't get it until end of the month at the earliest. :( so Amazon had to adjust the date to reflect that.

I dont't understand the logic here. This product is being advertised all over the web that it would be released on the 22nd. I sent my order through Amazon today but I wonder now if I should have waited more or go somewhere else.

I also ordered one last week. I asked an Amazon representation and he said that the estimated release date is the 2nd week of march 2011. I hope it's earlier than that...

Know one knows. Least of all Amazon.com. I placed my "Pre-Order" on 9/5/12. at the time, a release date of 12/5/12 was given. Prior to that date, I get an email stating it may not ship by 12/24. ??? Next I look at other sellers online and see a release date of 1/16/13. Amazon.com confirms this only to say later, they don't know when and can't contact the manufaturer. Don't hold your breath and believe no one.

I also am stalking the X1, but Leica has made it pretty clear that it should be shipping in January 2010. Happy hunting!

Was just on Sony's website and it shows you can purchase the HX100 again with the ship date of May 16th. Do you think Amazon will be getting it then also or should I just get it through Sony? I have had it on order here since April 13th.

yeah that is the only thing holding me from the camera. any reliable rumours on the release date of the new one? I can only wait about 2 months time though

Well, that's it for me. Just got another notice that the shipment date has been pushed back to 4 Sep 06. Thanks for the tip about Adorama. I'm going to check out their seller rating/prices. I'm really irritated with Amazon right now since I ordered this camera from them (not a vendor) at a good sale price. About $750 for the camera body with both lenses. Of course, that doesn't mean much if they don't ship the camera. The aggravation of waiting over two months isn't worth it. And of course, the page still states that Amazon ships in 1-2 weeks.

I called my local camera dealer with this question and he said that it will be released November 25th. Unfortunately his first shipment is sold out.

Me too. Don't know what happened to the date. Sandisk webite used to say "4 - 6 weeks"; now it changed to "preorder now"

It has released it the US already, as for other countries I believe it is slated for late April into May. Their official site and Facebook does offer more info on this though

We are well into March now and still no Camera... Amazon is now estimating sometime in the first three weeks of April. I can wait, but I hope its sooner... ;-)

I'm also on the wait list. They got my hopes up, giving me a Jan. 19 delivery date, then changed it to "we don't know when it will ship." I might try the local camera shops. I don't mind paying sales tax, but I'm not going to pay an extra $1,600.
