"shipping soon" here too. But afterwards it will have to be forwarded across the Atlantic, so you will all have yours long before me...

I ordered my Paperwhite from Amazon, but called Best Buy just to see if they'd have it in on Monday and one person said yes, but another today said they didn't think so. So who knows. My guess is they won't have it.
I've had very similar experiences. It's frustrating. |

Hey.. thanks all to the quick replies.. I will head down to BB today and talk with another salesperson.. but BB is sinking.. As a professional businessman myself I see some of their problems... the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing..

*sigh* Do you suppose it's too late for me to change my shipping options in order to have my "not shipped yet" changed to "Shipping soon"? I'm trying to remind myself that I have fifty million things to do in the week before mine's due to arrive, enough that I probably wouldn't have much time for reading anyway, but...
*best Veruca Salt voice* I want it NOW!! |

wohoo.. got email from Amazon. It says has been shipped. It will be at PO BOx Oct 2. I also got another email about Paper White itself.
I'm excited ... |

I had chosen the cheapest (slowest) shipping method for my KB and it arrived (in Canada) less than 24 hours after showing "shipped".

Oh well. Mine will be brought by a stork. Next spring to Europe.
I will take bets who will be here first to post when you receive it. I can only drool. |

You can order now from Amazon to have one in the system and shipping queue. Then go to BB and other B&M stores to see if they have them. If one does buy it and cancel the Amazon order. If not, you will get one from Amazon as fast or faster than BB will probably get them.

I ordered the PW with NO Special Offers. It still shows a delivery date of Oct 11.
