Keeping customers hanging on like this is an obvious marketting ploy.
It keeps the noise around the product release happening and the more people hear about it, the more people will begin to wonder what all the fuss is about on this 'newest big thing' thats about to hit the electro music stores. Suspense, imagination of how good its going to be, the glee of being amongst the first to get your hands on it before the many others, the delight of at last getting it after all this time etc.. etc..
Access know that the majority of you/we will buy the TI no matter what, even if pre-orders are cancelled just now out of frustration.
By the short and curlies
ps - Hi, i'm new here and cant wait to get my hands on this damn thing
