Why have we not seen any reviews on the HD 1000 by the press? Ive seen about 20 previews but no actual reviews? Also does anyone have an idea on when these units will be in retail brick and mortar stores?

Thx

The press is much slower than the internet. :-) Actually with today's technology and companies on tight schedules to get to market, it's not uncommon tojust see previews (while they perfect things like the firmware) until general availabilitywith real reviews coming in only after consumer launch.

I justchecked (online) and B&H Photo Videoin New York (brick and mortar store) has it in stock.

The consumer launch was 24 days ago no?

Ya saw them too, was looking for maybe BestBuy / CircuitCity like the 2 largest in the states? or even Frys.

Just thought it strange that there were no online reviews of the production model, just previews based off of pre-production units.
