I am in Alabama and only ordered one 8gb model and nothing else at about 5PM CST on Tuesday, so I was pretty late to the party. I received a confirmation email almost immediately after placing my order.
I received no other emails until a little while ago when I got the dreaded backorder email. One thing is bugging me about it though: I know that I read that I would not be charged until my order ships, and I checked my account this morning and saw that the amount had definitely been charged to my account.
I'm not getting my hopes up too much, but I still kinda hope that they actually did ship mine this morning, but somehow didn't send me the tracking info and accidentally sent me the backorder email lol. If I find out for sure that I won't be getting it anytime soon, I may cancel and put the money towards a new motherboard and CPU or something.
