Just ordered it.  Ships later than I had hoped but maybe it's an 
estimate and will ship sooner.

*Shipping estimate for these items: * November 19, 2007
*Delivery estimate: * November 23, 2007 - November 27, 2007

Apparently Amazon received a very small initial shipment (just a couple of
hundred books). But a bigger shipment is already on the way to Amazon and
they should have it early next week, which means they should be shipping it
out by the end of next week. I hope.

Amazon had my ship date for volume one as Sept. 17 until this

Updated Shipping Estimate: November 19, 2007

Two more months!
This is the third change for the ship date, though the published date

Now selling copies on EBAY - $250 a copy if you want em now!

just kidding of course - but still wanting to get a copy. Has anyone found a 
better means than waiting on Amazon or has there been a more accurate date of 
"on the shelves" release? Was hoping to have it last week but still not getting 
any dealers who say they can get it before mid month October or later.

Thx

Sorry I should have mentioned that in the initial post. I got the same results 
which was why I was looking locally and than asked here. 

The local stores had the date around Oct 15th so the only thing I can gather so 
far is that they ship today from Publisher but warehouses wont have it ready to 
ship til Oct? Local Barnes and Nobles said they could preorder it and have it 
by Oct and that since it was classified a text book - it wasnt going to be a 
routinely stocked item. That may have been BS though trying to get me to 
pre-order cuase I know I have seen former editions on the shelves.

Make sure you are talking the exact same book.  For a non CF devote

Development".  IIRC the two parts have separate release dates one now 
one in a couple weeks.
