Release Date? Any one have a release date for these yet? Not sure if I want to order them and have to wait for four months. I plan on getting them just not sure if I wanna throw all that money out so soon for something that may not show within a month or so. Release Date? Any one have a release date for these yet?

So. I got one. Arrived last night. Was able to raid with it for one night and it worked flawlessly. One of the most comfortable headsets I've ever owned. Then the USB dongle quit out on me. I pop the USB dongle in and it keeps popping up "USB Device Not Recognized". Windows isn't recognizing the transmitter anymore, so now I've got a really comfy pair of really expensive earmuffs. That light up.

I haven't opened it yet to check for rocks (ha!), but I hold in my hands a wireless WoW headset from amazon (creative fulfillment).

The USB Headset is now ,the wireless is still on pre order. Was hoping for a release date on the Wireless and you can or I can only pre order thru Amazon at this time for the ones I would like get. Thank you for the info on the USB headset tho, may have to go with thise instead.

Pretty cool so far. I recommend the wireless over the wired because it is so liberating not to have a cord connecting you head to your computer.

So far so good. It is fantastic not to have a wire connecting you to the computer. I did notice some brief audio lag, but it is not consistent. So it could be driver and not hardware related.

Strange, it has changed between my original post and now. Creative is saying they were never in stock and it was an error. Something shipped to me (or at least UPS thinks it did). Will see if it turns out nothing ever really shipped and it was just a pre-printed tracking number.

Let us know if you get this fixed and how. I assume you downloaded and installed the latest drivers. There is a download page on creative's website.At the bottom of the page there is an autoupdate feature too. How long is the charging cord? 3ft?4ft?

Try right now. :) Just pick the seller as Creative Labs instead of Amazon. They are in stock and shipping!

That's what I was wondering also. I can't believe it would take that long to get them but then again you never know. I want to order them but don't want to wait that long if it is true.

Yes, my expected delivery date was suppose to be feb. 19. When I asked the amazon rep why my order had not shipped yet as of feb. 18 I got concerned. Her excuse was that there were many who had preordered and that they did not have enough to fill the preorders. I said that doesn't make sense, I preordered mine back in nov of 2013, how could I not have one reserved already? The only solution they suggested was to cancel my order and order from one of the other seller on amazon and they would refund the difference in total price paid. Which isn't a good option because if there were any issues with the item, I would have to deal with sending it back overseas and that would be more of a hassle in time and money. I'd much rather deal with amazon directly. What I think actually happened is their shipment has not arrived yet from their supplier whoever that may be and that's why our orders are delayed. They sent me an email that if they don't have the item by mar 21, they would cancel my order. If that happens, I will tell them to honor their first offer to refund the differnce I pay if order from another vendor. Because at that point I really wouldn't have any other choice.

That USED to be the case with preorders on Amazon (arriving on release day). However, at least in my experiences that last few years, they seem to just ship them on release day. They want you to pay for the faster shipping options. If you choose standard or free shipping I don't think you'll get it on release day. Choose a faster method and you should.

I did pre-order mine, Oct. 15th, with an estimated delivery date range, provided by Amazon, of Oct. 31-Nov.2. However today is Oct. 31 and the item's status still shows as "Not Yet Shipped"... I've got a feeling they are not going to get it delivered by Nov. 2nd then... ... ...

Purchased mine on January 25th and I'm still waiting in the backorder queue, if that gives you any indication. I'll let you know when mine shows up, as it might give you an idea about yours. Regardless, I think waiting 4 weeks or so for Amazon to restock is well worth paying the MSRP instead of the 20% to 40% markup other online retailers are charging, including some of Amazon's own 3rd party sellers. I don't fault them for charging it though. If consumers are willing to pay the inflated prices then there's no reason a business shouldn't capitalize on it. I'm just saying I won't. waiting 30 days or so for delivery is worth $200 or more in my pocket. End of rant. ;o) Purchased mine on January 25th and I'm still waiting in the backorder queue, if that gives you any indication.

It says "sold out" but it's really just available for pre-order. From reading various websites, it looks like it's going to be available early next year some time (Feb?). If you can wait, it's probably worth waiting for. I really want one for Christmas though, so I'm thinking about getting the original version. It seems to get great reviews!

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.

Ordered on 9/6, still haven't seen anything yet. It's a new model, I just think they are still in short supply at this point. Hard to find anywhere but I'll wait since I grabbed them at a good price!!!

I ordered these on Jan 6th..its now the 18th, I have not got them.After I ordered this, it now says I will receive them on: Jan 30th, to Feb 19..That is Way to long o( .and I would NOT order them again, as I needed these with in 2 weeks..I would rather have paid more money. Now I have to go out and buy one...

Nice. I have been waiting to see if I can get it before I go on my trip, and just emailed amazon today. They told me they had no idea when it would be "released" through them. Sounds like you got lucky, I should have just pre-ordered then too...

The message changed from "we don't know when or if these will be available" to "sign up when these become available", so I am taking that as a good sign.It appears that these have been a sales success, so I would think that they will be back. I do hope they drop the price back down though. They recently raised the price to $99 a pair. They are worth that, but they are no longer a great deal at that price.

As far as I know, they still haven't been released yet. And I don't think there has even been an ETA announced. I've been waiting for them as well.

Can someone post here when they get this from Amazon. I canceled my order, but might consider buying it from Amazon when people are actually getting them... since I've checked Best Buy and all other retailers mentioned on Logitech's site and like Stephen they've also never even heard of it. Late though it may be, and the In Stock status being a crock as it seems to be... I'm still thinking that Amazon will be delivering it before the retailers catch a whiff of it.

I seem to have ordered right before it said that. It originally said "ships in 2-4 weeks." Now it says its not available at all straight from amazon. A week later it still hasn't shipped, or more specifically, Amazon doesn't have it yet. After trying to get some answers, it basically comes down to a "it will ship whenever we get it and if you don't like it cancel the order or order it from a merchant" situation. No way I'm ordering anything from merchants, so I'll stick it out a bit longer. They have upgraded my shipping to one-day for all the vagueness and confusion so at least there's something positive.

I don't think they had any idea it would be quite this popular, particularly as a pre-order. Hoping to get mine, too, before Christmas. But, if it's delayed further, it's delayed further - that certainly won't make me not buy it. I understand how anxious people are to get their hands on one of these - I feel the same way - patience is a virtue. (yeah, yeah, I still want it here now, too ;-)

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.
