I find it bad that they hyped it up for so long and then removed it from online sales a month later, but you can still order it over the phone or in-branch.

Plus despite some rumours of 2+ month delays, they are actively being produced and have already been delivered to some customers (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQgjY2SRrck).
