wow, 24th August is like uber-soon.

I was expecting at least a couple of months between announcement and release, to allow for the older models to dry out.

For those who don't understand 'uber' time, that's next Monday :P

By the sound of things (recent reading on Kotaku and other game websites) they've been letting the old models sell, with no new stock. So the old models are probably close to being sold out anyway.
