I ordered from Chapters/Indigo and got my shipping notice on August 31. Maybe Kobo isn't shipping until Sept. 6, but Chapters/Indigo is shipping now.

Yep but Chapters/Indigo they are now out of stock I believe. I ordered on Wednesday early afternoon and I am stuck at "awaiting shipment"

I am listed as getting mine by the 27th of September...

I wonder if demand has outstripped what Kobo had anticipated. IIRC (and I won't guarantee that ) they shipped the HD direct from Hong Kong too and it was a much bigger success than they anticipated (although most of the ones shipped from HK were with case). Fortunately there will be a fairly significant "getting across the border" fudge factor in your estimated delivery date, so once you finally getting a notice that it's shipped you should only be 2-3 days out (even though it will likely still claim the 27th).
In answer to your other question, apparently some of Kobo's retailers (i.e. Chapters, FNAC) either didn't get the memo that release date was Sept 6 (or are ignoring it ). I ordered mine from Chapters on the 29th and it arrived yesterday afternoon (in Canada).

Kobo's Canadian website is now showing "in stock Sept 15" and Chapter-Indigo is now "PRE-ORDER" claiming "available Sept 6" but no in-store availability. Really does seem like they have shipped a lot more than they initially planned for. Be curious to know what US/European customers are seeing.

Kobo US also says "In Stock Sept 15", I just preordered today, but I don't know when it will ship.

Yes, and presumably by plane since mine apparently is already in Memphis, TN.

Ditto! Only I ordered mine around 6 AM Est.
Because I'm an impatient person, I have this feeling that the universe is going to kick my shipping date out to Sep 15th, just to teach me something.

Did the ones who are getting theirs on the 8th take the free shipping or pay extra?
