No offense but grow up, this is how businesses work. We no longer expect to get things on estimated dates, hasn't been like in a long time. If things start to stretch beyond a week into a couple weeks then we have a legitimate concern and our ire should be rank with the blood of those we want to slay. As for right now I think we are all over reacting just a little bit.
I'm not sure why we should be tolerant of "how businesses work" a small shipping delay of the actual product is one thing; the failure to have demonstration units in the stores is quite another. After the B&N clerk told me "No, we don't have a demo unit because there was so much demand we are fulfilling customer orders first", I asked to be directed to the "Incredible Market Failures" section.
