RUMOR– but from someone who works in the warehouse. The Nikon D800 will be in the “big” dealers by this Friday. “Around 12,000” have been shipped to dealers for their early order customers. Those NPS members should have their “congratulations” email this Wednesday.

This probably means that the 29th date is very likely to be met. The “E” version is expected to arrive in two batches. The first batch of 3.500 (yep that small) will arrive around the 3rd of April. If this holds, then the Mid-April date will also be easily met.
