    As far as I know inital shipments are in lots of 1000. Thus out of the reach of avearge consumers. I'm guessing you will have to wait a few months till local computer stores have enough demand to stock them.

    Intial benchmarks suggest that you don't get any great leaps in performance, thus perhaps rushing into an early upgrade may not be the best value for money decision.
