I just got a call from the wonderful people at EB Games and they said they won't be able to honor my preorder. They said their initial order of 50 units was reduced by Microsoft to only 26 units. I had placed my preorder on May 10, 2005 and my preorder was #29. The guy at EB said that I am #3 on the list for the second shipment which would be some time in December. Needless to say I am pissed!! I preordered that thing way before it even had a name. It was called xbox 2 on my receipt for gods sake. Yes, I know its not EB's fault and is more microsoft but I passed up preorders with bestbuy and eb games online since I already had an order in. BLAH!!!
