I was surprised they still had a shipping date of Sep 30. I thought if they were selling very fast that the ship dates would start moving out, and no doubt they will at some point. By the time I got my WiFi only PW1 last year they had no more of them in stock, so when I asked for a replacement they sent me a 3G model at no extra charge. Others here and at KindleBoards (now KBoards) reported the same thing.
