Turnabout is FairPlay. I say we send a bunch of college kids over there to be first in line and then have those units shipped back to the US for resale.
 
This isn't good if you are still looking for a 6+ or have one on order. It might be December now before we see availability improve. Only good thing is this will put a big dent in the mark up for those darn scalpers.
