I'm not so sure about this... BeBook is also out of their Hanlin v5 rebranding, and only recently was the black one allowed for preordering.

I think it might just be a shortage in general. It's still annoying, but it might not necessarily be Astak's fault. (That being said, a simple "Hey, we're having problems with the manufacturer" message would be nice...)
