PLM V.2 news from Paul C. Buff

this was just posted on the site:

08/13/2010:We are pleased to announce that PLM™v.2 parts are beginning to arrive from our vendors! We will be performing our final quality control checks and assembling the umbrellas for shipment as quickly as we can. As the umbrellas have been on backorder for an extended period of time, we will begin by filling backorders in the order in which they were originally placed. If you have already placed an order, we will be sending you an e-mail over the next couple of weeks to verify your order.

If you wish to place a NEW order for a PLM™v.2, please note that all 64-inch and 86-inch umbrellas will remain on backorder until all previous orders are filled. We hope to have all backorders filled in order to begin shipment of new orders in late September – early October. We cannot guarantee this timeframe, but we are getting the parts and will continue shipping as quickly as we can.

So it's still 4-8 weeks away then.

Time will tell...

The perpetual 6-8 week ETA.

At least PCB is consistent.

Stobella needs its own forum! I kinda want to buy one. would any one buy it from me after a week?

maybe we could make it like "where is nifty?" and send it around touring the world

OK screw it would anyone want to take it after me and pass it on?
