Well hopefully there's some available in time for crimbo! I'd actually have something to put on the list then....
We have received confirmation of your Google payment and your order is confirmed. The expected release is this month.
Many thanks
Release this month, but that doesn't mean you'll get your's this month though.Paradox said:We have received confirmation of your Google payment and your order is confirmed. The expected release is this month.

By my math, IF MWeston gets the sample cases by Friday and says "GO", they could make the firs 10'000 next week, and ship them to be in Dallas by the 20th. The next week is assembly, and they start send out the first REALLY real Pandora on the 30th (with the sample boards in sample cases being real Pandoras, but not REALLY real Pandoras)Na-Noo said:Release this month, but that doesn't mean you'll get your's this month though.

And that's guessing optimistically, so I doubt anyone will get theirs this month. Although first week of December is looking really nice. Who paid for express delivery?
They also said it would be slow going for the first 800 or so while they worked out the process.Vorporeal said:They said that they can assemble 250-300 Pandoras by hand per day, so I doubt you'd need to give them a week for assembly. They'll hopefully have some fresh post-105 boards done by then, and they can just throw one in a case in 7 minutes and ship it out. Voila - shipping in November. They probably (hopefully...) wouldn't stop at just one though.

It is possible (in my scenario) that they could do 100-200 on Monday the 23rd and ship them out Tuesday to arrive by Friday, but it wouldn't be unexpected of them to wait until they have a larger stock, some 500 or so.
B-ZaR said:A nice shipping date for the first units would be "before the N900 ships", because it's going to steal a whole lotta press and public attention. The last rumors I heard state it will ship by the end of the month.
People in America might have shorter shipping times but I would imagine the order in which the Pandoras are shipped will be in the same order as people ordered it.MonkeyChops said:They are supposed to be shipped in order of who paid first. I'm not sure if that changed at all. Are people in the US getting them first now since they are shipping from texas?
Was an estimate ever given for how long the mp boards would take? I remember the boards were suppose to be the bottleneck after the cases were ready. But that was before the case delays, I think.
MrBlais said:Well, first of all, that wouldn't be very fair. I'm around #2900, according to Jaquelyn, and I don't think it would be genuinely fair if someone that is #290 in the UK got theirs after me. First come, first serve in my book.
