Still want it? We'll keep on trying. To keep your order for this item

If there are other items in your order, they'll be shipped according
to the delivery estimates listed in the order details in "Your
Account" (www.amazon.com/your-account).

By approving the new delivery estimate, you are letting us know that
you still want the item(s) though they may arrive later than expected.
If there are other items in your order, they will ship according to
the delivery estimates listed in the order details in "Your Account"
(http://www.amazon.com/your-account).
	
We apologize for the inconvenience caused by this delay.

Note that nowhere do they actually provide a "new delivery estimate".

I don't know if anything has actually changed or if this is just
standard practice since today is one month since the order was placed.
