I completely agree. Upon release, I have to wait a month and a half to get one.

Any updates on this laptop 'A1' w.r.t to the availability folks? I put myself on the pre ordered and waiting list too but nothings happened for about 5 days..Anyone started receiving them yet?

AP- I hope you are wrong but that is a good explaination. I notice that both Frys and Amazon are "sold out" while other stores such as CompUSA show they have them on the shelf. I'd rather wait for Amazon to buy this through. I'm a long time Amazon customer and they have yet to let me down on any item. That kind of customer service will keep me waiting for Samsung to work it all out. It's nothing I'm going to lose sleep over. But..interesting post nonetheless!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I have asked endless retailers on ebay -all of which directed me to asus which is quite difficult to get thru to with a tech question if you're not registered as an owner! this info is GREATLY appreciated!

Ugh. Following the release of this product has been a nightmare. Probably a sign that samsung isn't great with customer service. Did anyone that preordered get one? Did they send all their shipments out?

My hope is that Amazon is being cautious and giving themselves a buffer now. So that when you possibly get it on the 7th you'll be pleasantly surprised. That being said it sounds like Amazon got their shipments in late so that instead of having them day(s) before release so you get it on release day...now they are all after the date. That's what is sounded like when I talked to customer service. Very apologetic but not much they can do. I have 1 day shipping and it's the 8th for me too. I also confirmed that they did NOT oversell the preorders. That was my fear.

I noticed that as well -- now it looks like Amazon has stopped selling (new) units themselves altogether, with no explanation. We bought ours from Amazon recently and it seems to work fine. A thorough and generally well-done review was posted by someone on July 25 if you haven't seen it.

Not to be pessimistic, but I think it will be difficult for Amazon to reprocess de already canceled orders. If it´s true what we have read here, that the tablet will be shipped to Amazon next week, I hope, at least that we, who have pre-ordered several weeks or months before, can have a chance to know it in time to order, before they are gone.

Canceled my order with amazon. They need to get their sh it together because several other retailers, even ones on this site are saying they have this laptop in stock and ready to ship. I went to buy.com, hopefully they will ship mine within the next 24 hours, I doubt amazon would have.

The Sept 1 press release for this product said Oct 2 release date (which was when the pre-order finally showed up on Amazon). I contacted Samsung on Oct 2, and they said "Early October" release. They couldn't give me any more details, so I guess we can expect this within two weeks. I felt "hinted" that we'd know something more definitive by Oct 5, although the sales rep couldn't say much. No word on the included accessories either, and even some of Amazon's specs for the different models don't line up with what Samsung originally announced in the press release. I hope this gets straightened out soon.

Is it okay to pre-order when there is clear confusion on the specs available. I feel its like buying a pig in a pork. I guess the best option will be to wait until the specs are updated.

Don't buy it here you can get it elsewhere 100 dollars cheaper. I'msure Amazon will get the correct price point later but just to let you guysknow there is another ASUS tablet in the horizon so you guys might just want to skip these tablest....big mistake on ASUS part I think youcan google for it should be coming out in the summer, worth the wait.

Thanks ASUS, your input is always appreciated. I saw the official specs for the UL30vt and I am excited and my CC is equally excited. It is ready whenever Amazon posts the preorder product page.For others here it is http://gdgt.com/asus/ul30vt/specs/

I agreed I usally order from newegg. I thought I would give amazon a try, but it seems like they take forever. I dont' think I will buy from amazon again. unless they have some crazy low price.

My order information for the 256Gb model still hasn't changed. Still says not yet shipped and the earliest date it was suppose to arrive is still the 11th. This must be some sick joke on amazons part.

No kidding.. I'm about to cancel and order at Newegg too. J&R; has it, Newegg has it, Amazon apparently doesn't. I even called and they're like, "Yeah, I don't know why we're not shipping it". Come on Amazon.. Get with it!

Thank you for noticing! I thought I was the only one who questioned this. I would never have known if I hadn't tried to order one for my mom's birthday because she liked mine so much. I nearly dropped my teeth when it was listed at $119.00. I checked the next day and it was $249.00! In addition, there was a new seller. It appears as if the second seller bought out the first one. Other sites seemed to have their stock dried up as well. When I bought mine Amazon sold it and I used my prime membership to save on shipping. Seems like someone figured out a dirty little way to scam us. I wonder how many other low profile products are going the same way. I called customer service. I did not get a satisfactory response, so I e-mailed them just now. I hope they take notice.
