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.

Im in the same situation pre order sep 18... still waiting, the same messages as you guys. The only problem with amazon is that when you send an email to know whats going on they always answer with the generic emails of were sorry, bla bla, you can cancel anytime... I really wanted to have this cam before dec 5th... now ill have to travel for a month with out it.

And now that I made a change by applying a gift certificate to my order, I lost my place in line, so my ship date has been bumped back to October 21-November 4. That's with an original purchase date of August 29. Still, for me, with the $75 GC, the wait is worth it. Otherwise, I agree with D. Trotter; if it absolutely, positively has to be there by a certain date.... good luck with that!

dang it, my delivery date just got moved from the 29th to the 30th.... Still not shipped... Oh well, waited 21 days so far, what's another one. Anyone who received it able to post any pictures and reviews of it on amazon? Would like to see real pictures of it being used instead of just stock photos.

Interestingly, earlier today the Amazon page said "You may pre-order it now and we will deliver it to you when it arrives." This was after is was available for a day or two. Now they have added "This item has not yet been released" to the pre-order message. It sounds like Amazon broke a release date.

I saw a release date of 28th Feb for the UK, but I'm sure I saw 11th Feb somewhere on Amazon.com yesterday (although I can't see that anywhere now). UPDATE: a quick search on the web shows "March sometime" as being the current info. I think Amazon.com made a typo somewhere, hence I can't find it again.

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.

I ordered mine on April 7th of this year and I got my confirmation e-mail from Amazon today saying I will be getting mine on Thursday May 8th. I'm assuming that anyone who ordered it after or at the same time will not be getting a release date delivery and those who ordered it before April 7th will either get theirs on the release date, Wednesday, or Thursday.

It would be nice to know, they told me the 8th as well but I paid for one day shipping. I'm really considering cancelling and swinging by a gamestop to pick it up. Amazon would be wise to try and keep their customer's loyalty by sending their items out on time. Why anyone would want to wait 2-3 days to get an item they pre-ordered months in advance is beyond me, I assumed we all chose this for the reason of having it release day, or at the very least, the following day.

I received mine about a week ago - and I pre-ordered back in early Feb. - FYI...

I preordered this from Amazon when it became available, and got an e-mail yesterday saying that the expected delivery date was the 13th. Since I picked overnight shipping, I take that to mean that they expect to ship my order by Monday, but obviously can't confirm that this is going to happen.Edit: Like those below, got the order update the day after it should have shipped.

Preordered mine on 7/4 and still nothing. I also got a "we're going to auto cancel your order unless you click this link" email. Whole thing seems like somebody screwed up at Amazon.
