Although I decided to NOT buy any more gear, B&H sent me a notification that camera was now in stock and offered to order overnight. How strange. I actually spoke to a rep there when it was announced and they said they'd already had over 300 order 2 days after the announcement and that at best not to expect one till end of August or into September. What, did Sony send them 500 units or something? Hard to imagine but looks like Sony has the capacity to send a ton of cameras on demand orders. Good for those that were waiting and thought it would come much later.
