Well if you want to preorder your screwed. Preorders have been sold out for the first 2 shipments since june/july. They are scheduled to be released early november. The only way you can get one now is to wait in line in store on the re4lease date or pay 3x as much on ebay for christmas. I reserved 5 of them so I can pop them all on ebay

I dunno I pre-ordered my 360 about a week ago and they had plenty more left. Just go to different stores and you will be able to pre-order them.
