My husband has half considered switching colors too, but here's the thing, or I guess the 2 things-1. if everyone gets upset and switches to black, how do we know the ship date won't get pushed back for the black also? and 2. If enough people leave the silver, maybe they'll have enough and it will ship. lol.
Assuming, anyway, that the problem really is a supply issue and that they really won't ship until the end of the month.
I feel worse about the gear S2 because he was really excited. I'm getting a black S7 though and I'm getting the S2, so if his is messed up, I will just give him mine as I already have a FitBit Charge HR. It would have been cool though. I just can't deal with him being disappointed in his phone being so late and then adding the insult of not getting the S2, on top of my phone coming on time and him not having his.
