Would be interesting to know how many pre-orders they have gotten already directly through the web site. Just need someone to announce when they get order ID higher than, say 200 or 300...
Order ID itself seems to be sequential. November 10th it was #61 at morning and #64 at noon which would indicate quite decent pace, especially so if it started from 1. Also order ID is just one ID regardless if you pre-ordered 1 or 10 units or so I believe. Not sure if it would skip numbers between but thats unlikely as it is order ID and not unit number.
Ofcourse none of those pre-orders are chiseled in stone as you can remove yourself from the pre-order list and get full refund of that pre-paid sum but nonethless if they already have 100-200 pre-orders and if those actually materialize as sales, they have quite a success in their hands don't you think?
