I just got the same message from Amazon
(I'm in the UK)
So usual plan for me then!
For 2-3 weeks scream at the Amazon pending orders screen then cancel it and get it delivered from GamesLore.
Release Update...

I am patient, and yet I can assure you that there is NO way that FFG does not know when the EXACT date of release is to be. If they do not know, then someone in FFG needs to go to Community College and pick up some basic business courses. There are going to be unexpected delays, but in this case, I do not think that is the answer. If it is, then I stand corrected. But I just do not see that as the answer.
Most experienced RPG companies have learnt to keep quiet about release and shipping dates until the last minute. More often than not those dates end up being wrong, due to unforseen delays. For all the wangst being expressed over the lack of information it is nothing compared to the nerd rage that flows when a declared shipping date turns out to be wrong.
More rumours, and a whole lot of nothin'. FFG apparently aren't listening either. Would it be so hard to give themselves a deadline with a month's extra to accout for all these apparently commonplace publishing delay? NO. Would it be so hard to post a release date on thier own forum? NO. Would it be so hard as to be honest and tell thier loyal customers that something's gone wrong? NO.

I got a similar notice about a week ago, My delievery's pushed back to the first week of November...
Well good thing I have quite a few other things to play with. I just need to get my group away from 4th Edition D&D...
I've just got a new ETA from Amazon France: 19 october.
So my guess is somewhere between now and New Year's Eve...
August... Christmas...
Stop complaining about minor details
