Who did you order from? I'm a little surprised that you ordered 2 days after the release event and still got an October ship date, considering how many people who ordered white XLs on the 4th got late November dates.
I'm wondering if the distribution of the different colors was just chaotic or if someone (ahem... Verizon, the de facto supplier of kinda-blue Pixel 2s) claimed the lion's share of white XLs for itself.
[Or the nicer way to put that: Verizon is just better at handling inventory than Google is. And who would doubt that?]
