They weren't selling units, nor taking orders, just showing them off. Oddly enough that seemed to make folks more willing to look at the ones they had, once they knew that was the case.
I gathered that some of the current stuff going on with availability might have something to do with some internal political stuff that they couldn't really comment on (which explains why I was figuring it out for myself).
They did mention a few more retail outlets besides Borders, CompUSA, and half the team was saying Fry's Electronics, and the other half wasn't. I'm hoping that the actual demand that they're seeing might have an effect on the factors currently affecting availability. I wouldn't want to guess from that whether availability would increase in the next couple of weeks, though.

I'm not sure I'm following what you're asking, vvaann, so I'll answer my two guesses, and you can tell me if you meant something else entirely.
Firmware update: they did hint a bit that there might be a firmware update in the not too distant future, but I couldn't say when or what would be in it.
Opening up the source files: we've already got most (if not all) of it, and judging from the goings on in the developer's
subforum , it's debatable how much more is
really needed.
