Got mine today from B&H. Ordered Jan 28. Thanks to nowinstock.com
Just how did you manage that? I called B&H; they said they had none in stock and were not taking orders. Wouldn't even call me when stock arrived. They claimed they had no waiting list. Oh, and I just check nowinstock - they show the 1D4 out of stock at B&H (and everywhere else).
Nowinstock is an email notice service more than a way to see whether a retailer has stock ready to order. The site somehow gets a jump on notice that a retailer you've registered has received stock. It seems to be virtually real time. I don't know how many they received on the 28th, but I ordered right away and got the rig. I expect they were gone by 1/2 hour depending on how many they had. The immediately preceeding notice from nowinstock, about a week earlier, went through 120 units in about two hours according to reports here.
Best bet is to register BH on nowinstock and then call immediately when you get the email.
