Mine was also placed on June 25.  Amazon assured me Friday (7/22) morning
that they wouldn't cancel my order again and it would be delivered 8/8.
Friday afternoon (7/22) they canceled my order.

I decided to place a Ceton order from NewEggBusiness for $220 ($235 after
tax) instead of a PRIME from NewEgg for $250 ($275 after tax and shipping).
I complained to Amazon since it is clearly not SiliconDust's fault.  This
usually bears fruit for me, and this time was no exception.
