Amazon finally has it in stock, but is selling it for the full price of $299.99. It had been available for $243.99 as a pre-order. I expect the price to drop soon.

I know! I'm getting really frustrated myself. It makes me question if I should ever pre-order from amazon again? They don't update you on anything!

I wouldn't put too much into that response from Amazon. Right now they need to guarantee delivery on items for Christmas so if they aren't sure on a release date then they have to say it won't arrive by the 24th. The thing that worries me is that you can no longer pre-order it. That capability is gone as of today. The way they are handling this whole thing is weird.

I have called amazon 4 times now... nobody knows anything! It says all over the internet that the Samsung models HAVE been released, and it's the Acer ones that have been delayed... no one seems to know anything. I'm tired of checking my orders 20+ times a day, I'm ready for them to ship it! I mean I preordered it June 9th and everything... it should've been delivered to me tomorrow :[

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.

Amazon uses a placeholder date for the end of the year until they know the official date. It will be updated when they know more. If you preorder now, it will ship on the official release date. We will probably find out more about it at the Tokyo Game Show this fall.

I just checked Amazon's Elocity page, and it went from the e-mail availability alert, to a pre-order form, but with the following text:"This item has not yet been released". "You may pre-order it now and we will deliver it to you when it arrives."

You probably bought it during preorder period. Please contact the seller where you bought this item, whether Amazon directly or other third party sellers.

I preordered mine and on my Amazon order page it says that "this item will NOT arrive by December 24th" I had heard mid-December but based on the fact that it will not arrive by Christmas, I'm not real confident in a December release.

Although incredible, I think it's just you! I remember reading this somewhere before - others posted in a forum that Amazon doesn't give priority to the pre-orders, instead if you do what you did (cancel/re-order) its actually better. I just can't really believe that though... whats the point of pre-ordering then?!

I pre-ordered on 9/17 and have nothing positive to report from Amazon. The only thing I've heard from them was on 10/17, they sent me a message asking if I still wanted it. The pre-order wasn't even on the Amazon page for 15 minutes when I ordered it so I wouldn't assume it went to backorder. If it did go to backorder would at least like to know so I can explore other options if needed. I have sent their customer service a message and hope to hear back from them. The item is too high price to receive no information from them.

Lucky you, I have no update to my pre order, and the item is showing out of stock. I am seriously not impressed with Amazon's lack of communication.

I put in my pre-order and i'm waiting on the delivery estimate e-mail, hoping that I get it soon and really hoping they ship this out early the way theyd o for video games so that people will have it on release date. being that release date is a sunday I wonder when they will ship, I personally put in for overnight shipping(only 4 bucks with prime) so maybe I'll get lucky and get it even sooner. I live in NY so I wonder if I were to order from B&H who ships on the 21st if I'll get the device the next day....my wife is getting so tired of me talking about the xoom and I don't even have it yet lol

I just got the "items shipping soon" notice on my S90 purchase. I'd pre-ordered on September 25th, so Amazon seems to be prioritizing based on pre-order order (sorry for the double word use!) -- at least based on the comments above mine.Good thing, too; I was just about to head over to a few Best Buy stores in my area, and, based on any supposed success, cancel the Amazon pre-order. It all worked out in the end for me -- it's all good. :-)UPDATE: My order has just shipped, due to arrive on October 14th. Awesome!

I'll give it another day and then cancel my preorder. What kind of garbage is this? Your customers pay in advance, don't get their item on the promised release date, and then they are left in the dark on when it will actually come out?

I may just do that. This isnt like Amazon. It doesnt make any sense. Its like they allowed people to preorder without them knowing if or when they will ever receive them.
