Thank you! After reading this thread, I assumed without checking that I'd have to wait just as long on a new order at Amazon. I've cancelled my Best Buy order and according to Amazon, my Fire 6 will come next Wednesday.

Best Buy was supposed to receive all colors on October 21. Amazon didn't ship them any colors. Supposedly now Amazon will ship them colors in late November. I contacted customer service at Best Buy a couple of times about this. Someone was supposed to work on the pre-order info on the site. Now they are not taking any orders on colors.

Staples has removed all colors from their site also. I'm guessing they're all at the mercy of Amazon.
I wouldn't have blamed Best Buy if they had, I dunno, told me the truth! Instead of sending me an obfuscatory email to string me along. Seriously, your supplier reneges, I'm not happy but I'll accept it. Just keep me informed.

I've got my fingers crossed that this time is the charm for me. Perhaps you'd be best served by cancelling your BB order and placing a new order at Amazon?

I'm aware of a certain irony in my impatience in getting the untested (by me) Fire 6 when I never liked my 1st gen Fire, which was clunky and buggy. Ah, marketing, you found a live one in me.
