I had a very bad experince in the first half hour of trying to order an OLED model. Finally was able to get a normal 1TB during my lunch break so around 2pm PST (4 hours in). At that point it was very easy to get one. Limited looked like out of stock. I checked the page again on my way home around 6pm and the limited ones were available. I cancelled the normal one and got the limited one. And about 2 days in the limited edition is still available with the shortest lead times. It’s great that many people can get it. But, if it’s this widely available they should have made it like an alternate colorway and not make it limited to North America. What is the point at this stage?

    We went from complaining about not enough being available to complaining about too many being available. People are incredible.

      I’m happy mate believe me. Mine is more so questioning the purpose behind the certain limitations they’ve put into place. They clearly have the production volume unlike the first time these things released. So why limit it to North America?

        I guess they went with the “better safe than sorry” approach.

        I’m also outside of the territories that have the limited edition, but I’ll take it over the scalper hell we usually get for every new piece of tech.
