if the number of buyers is indeed that unexpected for amazon, i for one think you're lucky for receiving it with only one or two days delay.

I have to admit, I'm rather spoiled. I live in a fairly dense part of the US. I'm fairly close to one of their distribution centers and I'm a Prime member. It's often quicker for me to get things shipped than to find time to go to the store.
I'm amazed how well they generally do on big releases. It's not surprising that a few people aren't getting them as promised on release day. It's a wonder so many of us are. However, it's still disappointing for those that were eagerly awaiting their new toy. I have a Kindle already. This is just an upgrade, but if it doesn't show up today, I'll be rather pouty.
