BrightPoint (or Nokia/USA) has done this in the past with the N97. Pre-orders were systematically cancelled. Luckily when they cancelled mine a better offer came around and I jumped on it instead of waiting for a Nokia Representative to call and offer me an equivalent price and package from the pre-order according to a BrightPoint representative.

One thing to note though was that I did NOT find out about my order being cancelled until I called in to check on the status because someone else experienced the same thing and posted their experience on a forum.
