Just an FYI - I had originally placed an order for a 128 Mb Sandisk Transflash card with buy.com about 2-3 weeks ago because their site said "in stock" and Amazon's site said "not yet released"

My buy.com order stated "sent to warehouse" for weeks. My attempts to contact customer service went unanswered. Finally I canceled the order (they clearly didn't have it in stock).

I ordered my tflash from buy.com on Tuesday and I got it today at 2pm. It did say sent to warehouse until yesterday. What was wierd is I canceled it online yesterday morning and about an hour later I got an email with the fedex shipping info.

Well I've placed an order with Amazon, Buy.com, and Chumbo. All on Aug 4th.

Buy and Chumbo still say sent to warehouse. Amazon still says not released - estimated October.

I'm hoping I get one in and I can cancel the others. If not I should have a couple to sell. We'll see which one gets here first. 😕
