I just called Mayday on my Fire HDX 7 2014 and they said our delivery dates are determined by demand from our particular location as it gets into the Amazon database.
It looks like my State poured in the orders and I got stuck with Nov 28 for my WiFi non-SO unit.
If folks wait another week or two, they may be looking at 2015 deliveries.
They also said that the dates and prices of special order removal have not yet been determined.
The girl I was speaking to was from China and I could barely understand her. I may have missed a lot of what she said.
As I remember from the Paperwhite 2012 and 2013, I also ordered the WiFi non-SO units and also had to wait longer than others. I remember the first shipments had many, many screen defects with colored spots, cracks, etc. Also, I remember the SO's could not be removed immediately. There were some delays on both models.
As I remember, the same was true of the Fires back then. I also got my units later than others due to blocking the SO's.
I remember many folks returning their units and never replacing them. Hopefully, Amazon has improved their Foxwoods factory in China and has better quality control this time.
When I finally received my units, I noticed no defects and kept all my original shipments. I have had no trouble on my PW's or Fires but received all later than others.
