Disappointment over sam440.

It looks as though a PS3 may knock over the SAM as my next purchase. Disappointment ahead of Christmas with the number available seems to have forced my hand.

if there isn't one for you to buy then your emotional state on the matter is moot.  :-P

I thought that too.

Have they resorted to a sort of pre-order system? It seems the production volume of the second batch was low.

Only very limited numbers.  I pre-ordered (and paid upfront) on the 24/10/2008 from amigakit and I am still waiting on a board, I have confirmation from amigakit I will be getting one of the next batch which should hopefully come in next week but its unlikely that I will see it until sometime next year as a result of the Christmas holidays.
