Is there any confirmation on whether the HVX200 only ships (i.e. leaves Japan) on December 29, or if that's when it actually arrives at the dealers? I've seen various press items stating either.
Don't really know. I do know that the DVX100 was originally supposed to arrive in stores October 10th, and it actually arrived October 7th. No way to know if history will repeat itself, but Panasonic beat the deadline once before...
