PRS-900 Next Batch of 900s Shipping on 1/22 (SonyStyle.com)

Woo Hoo!!!

My sonystyle.com order status is officially "ready for shipment". Order placed on 1/17. I've been checking all day in anticipation that I wouldn't have to wait until the official 1/29 - 2/1 ship date. I was even tempted to cancel my order from Sony and place one with Best Buy since they're in stock. I was too scared to pull the trigger though.

Edit: It's on backorder again at Best Buy.

A couple of amusing things about the tracking on my Sony shipped (and received by moi) 900. It took 4 hours to get all the way from La Grange, Il to the FedEx depot in Chicago. And I don't know where that depot is but the center of La Grange is about as far from the center of Chicago as the center of Dallas is from the center of Ft. Worth. Or maybe Grand Prairie. Sony said shipped on 1/14 but FedEx showed it picked up 1/15. And I was checking tracking last Tuesday 1/19 about 11:30 and it said Delivered at 10:56. Darn FedEx driver didn't ring the doorbell

Anyway I have it and I'm 1/3 through the first book I put on it. And still haven't charged the battery. I'm in far northeast Houston for reference.

I can relate. They rarely ring the doorbell. Drop it and run off. I'll have to keep that in mind on the day of delivery. At least UPS rings the bell before they run off.
