Sorry, wasn't online during the weekend and don't have the order number at hand right now but my Cybook was delivered on the 18th of December.
So, I'd assume that in any case my order number must be lower than that of people who placed their order in January.
From the point of view of Bookeen I kind of understand that behavior: If I were them I would also be tempted to deliver the full package to someone who just ordered and let the other guy who's just missing the cover and the battery wait a little longer. The new customer who hasn't received the Cybook yet is more likely to cancel their order if they have to wait long. The customer who is only waiting for the cover is a lot less likely to send the device back and cancel the entire sale just because the cover is slow to arrive (which is certainly true, I won't give them back my book :-) Also some people might not need the cover that desperately so they might even not mind the delay that much. (In my case it's a bit of a nuisance as I use it on my way to work and would like to see it protected when changing in crowded stations, plus I don't want to just throw it into my briefcase for fear of scratching the display)
Anyway, if they sent it within the first week after they said they had things in stock again, there's a good chance that it'll arrive this week.. :-)
