No reason to be upset :-) The order rate is still -very- good. We're
just doing even better in production.
We've planned on ramping up production to this point from the start and
to be honest, for ongoing business in this market long term, it is
important that we get the lead time down to a very short time.

Very cool. Kinda upsetting that you're now going faster than orders but
it's also a plus. I was liking that units were being sold faster than they
could be made for a while but with the 7600 and what not coming out getting
to a point where one can just be ordered and shipped may not be that bad of
a thing. I can definitely see the wait being something that sways someone
away from the K3.
I must admit that mine was definitely worth the wait.

This delivery time is -forward- looking, and is a direct calculation
based on current and projected production rates.
Looking backwards the time will always be longer as we have been
continually increasing production rates each month. We are now producing
at a rate ahead of current orders.
(The actual calculation was 3.68 ;-)
