There is a problem with technical issue we can not openly to explain to you at this point. As soon as we can get more information we will let everyone know. Here is a little detail why.

They suppose to release this products in the 3rd weeks of Sept. but wanting to change the core clock from 275MHz to higher. Now the Yield is too low when you change to higher MHz and has a technical issue.

Hope you understand why the products can not ship out yet. Even they anounce but got into a problem. Thank you.

And shake it all together, wait a little bit for the forum monkeys to activate and the reaction to occur, and voila - instant spreading rumour:
