Lastly, I would expect most newcomers to be curious, ask questions, perhaps in this case voice some concern if they havent yet received their order. I wouldn't expect them to form a small army of verbally aggressive cheer leaders shouting down anyone casting credible doubts on things like specs, delivery dates, and in general, credibility of this company.
It may or may not be true, but a good friend of mine told me that AMT offered people (or at least them) a 5-10% discount to defend them here on the forums. It could be in this mess of a thread somewhere, but to be honest, I didn't read it entirely. That could definitely explain the army of irate cheerleaders.
That aside, tomorrow marks one week since my device supposedly should have shipped. Still not a word from anyone at AMT. No "sorry, there's been a delay", no "we can't email everyone, so we're writing here to say there's a delay", no "fuck you, go away." Nothing. I mean, at this point I'd rather them flat out say "yes, we took your money" and mean it than them staying quiet.
I'll keep waiting until I hear something. I was hoping my order would have come on time so I could have ordered a bunch more of whatever they had available, but until I get some kind of response from someone over in AMT land, I'm holding on to them.
