Well it looks like Amazon does have the phone in stock, they just don't have enough to meet all of the pre-orders, so they're going through the list and sending them out now to the people who ordered first. Which isn't such a surprise, Amazon probably got stuck with the largest number of orders and weren't sent enough phones to deal with it.

Personally I don't care about any of this. I was happy to wait an extra week to get my phone from Amazon. I've been buying from them for years and this definitely wont change that.

Also, are we going to complain that they're trying to meet all pre-orders before saying the phone is in stock and sending straight out to new orders? A couple of weeks ago this would have been considered standard practice but now it's a refreshingly smart decision.
