Taking the piss ever so slightly by not making it upfront, I was really hoping I'd have it at the start of this week

A quick email to those customers who have already ordered to explain the delay would not have taken much...

I tried the enquiry form which they just seem to ignore. I managed to phone them just by hammering the phone for ages, I'm that desparate for the phone (or that sad).
The lad I spoke to seemed like an 18 year old numpty though and I'm hoping he was refering the new orders on the basis that alll the back orders have been filled. Fingers crossed.
Rang expansys (uk) who seem adamant that they will get a delivery on Wednesday followed by back order later on. Bizarrely the girl could say Wednesday and wasn't sure how many are due in. Their site still shows a 2 day lead time so they must believe the Weds delivery, and they've always been accurate in the past.
And no I'm not a troll trying to wind you up. My MPD order still shows as "New" ...ARRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!!
If we get told today that it'll be another or two, then I think it's a disgraceful way to run a business! Why can't they just be a bit more transparent and honest, just say we're expecting them 16th Nov, but it could be delayed a little. Then at the end of last week, if/when it was looking likely they wouldn't get them that soon, they could have said that and I would have been happy (well happier, but still a little annoyed! lol)
Online business is all about communication, a site that sells mobile phones should KNOW this!
Grrrrr. Ok end of rant, I realise I'm probably jumnping the gun on this and will look silly later should peoples order start changing from "Pending Stock" to "Dispatched". *Hopes*

I'm really worried that my MPD order is still showing as New/Other rather than pending stock... I'm tempted to pay the extra £50 to give expansys a punt but I'm worried about losing my place in the queue. Although expansys have always be excellent with me.

I wouldn't trust Expansys's dates. I remember pre-ordering a MSI Wind from them and the date for dispatch kept getting set back, just like the N900.
