Joshua, I too had a similar problem. My order from i-Connect was three weeks late, but I called Simon and he explained the problems he had and apologized. He also gave me a new ship date another week later, which was acceptable. I would have liked to have gotten my CD on time too, but sometimes these things happen. I know from dealing with Sun Microsystems that these things happen to everyone and not just i-Connect.
I think that as long as Simon is keeping his customers properly informed, and not BS'ing us, we should have a little patience in understanding his situation. I've been waiting for Sparc Ultra 2's from Sun for two months, but instead of getting upset, I simply need to be informed of the current ship status. Simon has been honest and up front with me, so I have nothing bad to say. If i-Connect can't meet your needs though, perhaps you should look at other options. I simply don't think bashing Simon here is going to help matters. JMHO. :-) I believe Dale and Bruce are also selling CD's, no? Maybe you should see what their lead times are and see if they can meet your needs. I can tell you that after finally getting my Debian CD, it was well worth the wait.
