Assuming you just got that email from Lee, it's actually slightly different information. Chuck's vendor said they would ship to dealers wc 11/19, Lee is saying they will ship wc 11/12, which would be very good news for me (unless dealers are embargoed for customer ship until the 19th).

I asked Lee and he said this:

Sony ships about 11/15, we receive about 11/20 and ship to you; you receive the week of 11/26 due to the Thanksgiving delay. Cards ship about the same time.

I've been told ours should ship next week !

Paul Ramsbottom · November 9th, 2007, 07:40 PM

The suspense is killing me.

Steven, if you are willing, I'd love to know who you bought from (email me offline in case it is not a DVinfo advertiser) and exactly what you were just told.

Winston Ashley · November 19th, 2007, 02:46 PM

They are on the way. Here is an email from my contact at a place which shall not be named. If you need to know the source, email me.

Ashley,
Sony just confirmed cams shipped by ground 11/16 from Carson, CA. With the short week that means we get them on 11/26 and start shipping on 11/27. Thanks for your patience.

maybe us Britishers who dont have that "Thanksgiving" thingy (hope your harvest season was plentiful) will get ours first so we can be smug for a few days!

Winston,

so your camera will ship from California (not far from where you are) to Chicago and then back to Arizona? That sucks!!! At least mine has to go to the east coast and not back across again!!!

My camera is shipping from Carson, CA to Chicago and back to Los Angeles.

Carson is about 10 miles from me. Tragic!

I know! Its better than NY. Maybe I will rush it.

Paul Joy · November 19th, 2007, 04:51 PM

Mine's coming tomorrow! I had a call from my supplier who said that they ordered a load but that only 18 had been sent to the UK so far and that they received only 1 of the 18. Apparently I was the first to pre-order so it's on it's way :)

I'll try and get some comparison footage together to show any differences between the EX1 and my XH-A1.

Paul.

Congrats Paul! I'm also supposed to be high on a UK supplier's list; can you drop me an e-mail who you're buying from? When does he expect the next batch?

John Hewat · November 19th, 2007, 06:06 PM

Spoke to my store in Melbourne who told me that they had originally expected them this week however had been told by Sony to expect: 1 - delays; and 2 - an extreme defeceit in stock.

He said they were not getting anywhere near the amount of stock that people had ordered. Originally he had assured me that I was in on the first shipment but now he cannot guarantee anything. So who knows when us poor Australians will get them...

What was it Jerry Seinfeld said about Australia being the... something... of the world?

He also told me that a friend of his who runs a place in England had 100 orders placed and they only received a stock of... wait for it.... 2!!! That's it.
