Let's hope it's not December. I emailed customer service and they told me they plan to have caught up on all preorders and backorders in 4-6 weeks, which puts us into the first part of November at the latest. I'm planning of 5-6 weeks since I ordered the first week of September. If they get here before that it'll just be a pleasant surprise. This is my first PCB purchase, so I have no reason to love or hate them, but I'd bet they are trying to push these out the door as fast as they can safely do so. There is just too much at stake for both their reputation and pocket books to not do so. I can't imagine waiting 8 or 9 months like many people have. I'd have cancelled my order and bought something I could actually have in hand, so the fact that they have do many people waiting means they either have a really great product or they've tapped into some zealot loyalist customer base.

I think a littl of both for me. I own 1 B800 and 2 X1600's, It's been 6 months for me but I am not waiting on them for a shoot, just expanding my studio options

I'm starting out myself.
I have one lonely sb-600 right now and a few light modifiers.
A positive thing about the wait is I was thinking of getting the VagabondII but will probably get the mini now :)
I need to call customer service to add to my order and I'll probably get an estimated ship date.
I wish PCB made a device to control the power of my sb-600 remotely.
