When will Panny Lumix DMC-GH3 finally start selling?

Well, I thought I was clear about it before, but here it goes again:

1. There online store states a date of 28 January when a PRE-ORDER could be turned into an actual ORDER.

2. But when I called them on 15 January and talked to SALES, I was told "February."

3. Sounds to me someone over there know already they won't have the thing IN STOCK and ready to ship just 12 days from eight now, you know. Like many folks had suggested, the largest retailers and online merchants will likely get their shipments before the Panny Store gets theirs, it seems.

All is well, anyhow, I was mostly worried that the GH3 had been pulled off the shelves permanently for some reason, or had been recalled, or something that ominous. Apparently, that is not the case, so again, all is well. Thanks for the help, Slimoli.
