Which is good as we have the 4GB SDHC Micro with mini and standard adapters in inventory now... Hopefully the july date was giving some leadway and we launch it sooner...

By any chance did you get to see if the bluetooth is crippled or not?

There is one other individual at our company who is just as geeky as the rest of us here and he spoke with sales rep. Now granted this is a sales rep

but i figured it would not be september. So I asked him again and he said September. I explained how a community of people I know are disagreeing with that deadline. His response and I quote- " Well I will see what I can do for you guys" (meaning the company I work for) So I expect it to still be September..(and yes I hope he is wrong)
