It seems sonystyle.com is clueless as well. I pre-ordered my 650 back on 9/3 and their site gave a ship date of 9/7. When that came and went I called their customer service as was told by a rep "our web site doesn't work too well, that date is a mistake" although in the same breath she encouraged me to "keep checking the site" (??). Anyhow, they said the correct ship date was 9/16 and have repeated that any time I have checked this week. Now on the 16th they are saying there are no 650s in their warehouse and the 9/16 date is the date they are due to arrive in the warehouse (but no sign of them yet) and that they won't actually start shipping until "sometime next week...you will get an email."
