Seems pretty clear this isn't a faked shortage. The fact that they can't get the devices into stores for Black Friday, in and of itself, indicates some major supply issues.
I do think this will hurt them quite a bit for the holiday season, but it's hard to say if and how this will really make much of a difference in the long run. I'd think a bigger issue would result if they ended up sacrificing quality for production speed, but I doubt that will be the case.

Oh,
please.
All he said was their device is smaller, lighter, in demand and in stock. I'm sure Sony or Cool-er or Astak or whoever would say almost the exact same thing if asked.
If that kind of talk is sufficient to stop you from buying a product, then perhaps you should move to a shack in rural Montana.
