forgive me for asking a stupid question, but why rush and order mavic now if its not gonna be released till end of October/early November, especially if stores running cards right away.. i mean there are no early-bird deals or savings. once its officially released and available for sale, why not order it then, pay and have it shipped out immediately... its unlikely mavic gonna sell out like iphones or xboxes&ps3-4s... is it just to potentially get it a few days early? still its a big chunk of changed locked up at some online store. just a thought...
