Any shipping date announced yet on preorders. I’m hoping it would be at least a week before retail availability.

- I would hope for the same, JohnCz! If it is available June 20th, I would expect preorder shipping around June 15th! Less than a month!

$800 seems pretty expensive, but it looks pretty awesome. I can’t wait to for this long, so it’s good they’re releasing it suddenly! Ha

I can ALMOST understand the price of the device, but I still question if the covers really take as much to make as Microsoft is charging for them
