Amazon is on PDT too, maybe I need to find an EDT bookseller?

Maybe someone from the different time zones will post on MR when it shows up. (Oh hell, I know I'm being pathetic but it's been so long )

I've tried pre-ordering ebooks from Amazon before and discovered to my regret that I could have had it sooner if I waited until the release date and bought it then, so staying up seems appropriate.
Ouch - that would be frustrating for sure. My pre-orders have been on schedule so far, but I doubt they were in such high demand. I can see these being sent out in batches.

With such a long book, I guess one could download the sample - surely it would download before the sample was finished.

I'm not sure if I'll pre-order or not, but I'll be at the camp-out, either way.
