My Kronos is finally shipping from Sweetwater. Apparently they got a shipment in today and I was high enough on the list. I didn't ask, but it sounded like there were still unfulfilled orders.

I'm not sure if the demand is just higher than expected, if there were manufacturing/shipping problems, maybe a bit of both?

I have the shipping confirmation through FedEx, so it's definitely on the way. I ordered it mid April.

I'm intrigued to know how many of us in Europe have got he new 88. It seems like all the suppliers here in the UK are still waiting for stock. I must have got lucky getting mine from Rocking Rooster/Rimmers music.

I think you did get lucky finding one in stock; still waiting for my 73 ordered in April from DV247 in the UK.
I'd never heard of Rimmers, even though they seem to be in the northwest (where I am!)
DV have always been good to me so are usually my first port of call.
Glad to hear one has found its way to the states though.

Digital Village told me last week they are expecting it in on Friday 17th - tomorrow, but the date has already been moved back three times.
Some time this year would be nice...

Hi All... this is my first post.

I am from India and I have ordered Korg Kronos 2- 88 on June 17th through the dealer "furtados music". At the time of order they said they already ordered 2 boards and confirmed that one will be booked for me (not sure whether that is true). They have also said it is expected for delivery in mid July and last week when i asked them again they said it might arrive by the end of this week.

Based on all your posts (particularly PatrickD) i feel that i should not expect delivery in near future.
