Oh, for the love of Mike....
Anyone, even the likes of Amazon get swamped sometimes. It's a function of number orders versus product available/personnel/facilities.
Yeah I was just being sarcastic/butthurt about it all so I posted that just interested to see what people would say xD. I completly see why it probably couldn't be shipped all in an entire day. But a 14 day gap seems a bit stretched between shipping dates for a normal company in usual circumstances eh? By having a batch ready, does that mean they are all boxed and labeled ready for shipping or does having a batch ready just mean produced units ready for selling(still needs boxing/labeling)?
I only care that they stick to their announced dates. Speculating is not productive.
Having been involved in custom hardware manufacturing in my career, I can totally understand them separating production into batches, specially when dealing with highly customized stuff such as this.
It's not like you are making 1 billion toasters for Wal-Mart.
