The Xbox One isn't sold out.  It was replaced.  Check out the product page:

http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-One/dp/B00KAI3KW2/

As I had suspected, they are pushing Assassin's Creed bundle (which is better btw).  

So the bigger question is when will the vinilla XBO come back?

Its sold out on Amazon so yes, if someone is looking for that version why wouldn't Amazon themselves advertise the ACU Bundle that they have in stock? 
They don't want the other retailers available like Tiger Direct to get those console sales. Standard Xbox One will be back in stock on Amazon around the 15th.

No, I just don't believe it.  Why would they have such low stock of the vinilla bundle.  For me, I see this as a strategic move to support Assassin's Creed. 

1. Why would you even buy a vinilla Xbox One.

2. Halo would eat up everthing anyway (especially with Ass Creed releasing on the same day).

3. It seems like a win win.  On one hand you get people to get Ass Creed and then those people looking for an Xbox One on Halo launch will get the bundle anyway. 

4. Retailers have to buy consoles before we do and the cost of the Ass Creed bundle is probably lower than what retailers paid for vinilla Xbox.   That being said, you can maximize your returns by pushing the bundle and saving your vinilla stocks.  I would not be suprised if the vinilla Xbox is no where to be found on the 15th.
