"Well, just got an email from them saying they are sorry, but the item is backordered."
Don't you love computer-generated messages? It is backordered, yet they've never had it in stock. They did this to me when I was trying to become an early adopter of the DA 40. I called Adorama and got a live person, and even she gave me the backordered nonsense. When I pointed out that they had not yet received any, she emitted a sheepish "Oh, sorry." I wound up canceling the order and getting it from B&H. I don't understand why Adorama cannot have a computer-generated message that just says they don't have any yet. Joe (grumpy in Tempe, AZ, after driving 500 miles today) P.S. I'll feel better in the morning. I retired (early) from my last job on 9/30, and am here starting my new one.
