[mattsterp]

You had me going for a second.  Thanks for commenting. 

[sporophore]

Ha ha felt a bit guilty for doing it. Hope they havent lied to us again......

[mattsterp]

Me too.  I really would not be surprised though.  I have heard first week in July from a friend at guitar center.

The first batch of units went out of the production line last week, as announced, but please understand they are still in transit and have not reached the dealers/customers yet.

[jakegetup]

So how long till they do reach dealers?

[sporophore]

when the announcement went up last week i emailed my dealer in the uk and asked if they are getting some from the first shipment heres a copy of the reply i received it on thursday

you’re definitely getting one from the first shipment as you have our first pre-order. We have four coming in the next few days, one for you.

sounds promising to me. just gotta be patient and wait i suppose but its really hard when im so excited

At this point, the exact date is out of our control. It will depend on the time it takes freight forwarders to consolidate and dispatch shipments, and also the time it will take to clear customs (this is the first time this item will go through US customs, therefore it might take a little longer than usual to clear).
Without hitting any major snag in transit, the first units should mostly likely start reaching US dealers in a couple weeks.
But as Romain stated here http://www.arturia.com/evolution/smf/index.php?topic=6275.0: "delivering all orders will take much more time than planned."

Thanks for the info, Sean. I the meantime, is there a delay on the user manual for some reason? A lot of people would really like to read the manual so they can get answers to some questions that have not yet been cleared up by demoers or online advertisements.

Are they going only to US now or is there a shipment coming to European countries too?

I got an email from MF requesting a response to if I still wanted to continue the backorder - for some reason this is their policy.  Anyway, of course I called and told them yes.  They then told me they expected my order to fill 6-18-12!  The second batch is expected 7-6 I think.

But, why the manual is not yet posted is a bummer.  Why?  Since it is in production, I would think they have the details already nailed down.

Honestly, I'm not entirely sure why everyone is so hot to get the manual.  I'm pretty sure all of the functionality is right there on the main panel.  I can't imagine there's going to be much learned from the manual.  I mean, are there some hidden functions I don't know about?
