So, I spoke to my crack dealer yesterday, to confirm my final order - X-T1, Vertical Grip, 56mm 1.2. I was told that first deliveries are now expected, in the UK at least, on 9th March.

Good to know. I hope some others from different parts of the globe will add their estimated arrival times, too.

I have to say, I do have a fundamental issue with the placing of multiple orders with multiple dealers... by doing so you are a) planning from the outset to break an agreement with 2 out of 3 potential suppliers b) artificially inflating those suppliers' "forward load" (revenue forecasts) and c) artificially inflating order numbers at Fuji. I have moral and ethical objections to that.

Objection overruled!

I agree, but, it's not like the cameras from the canceled orders won't sell right away... and I only have 1 pre-ordered... ;-)
And how does any of this effect the consumer or the company? It is a lot better than people who buy cameras with no intention on keeping them and just return them after using them for few days.

In the past for the X100 back several years ago, I did do several pre-orders. I bought one for myself and someone else; his came in first (I was way too nice to give him his first!) and then mine. I did, however, cancel my other pre-orders in advance. I am pretty darn positive they had no problem selling those X100 cameras because people were drooling over them.

Yes, I ordered the hour it was first available to pre-order on Amazon.
The battery grip wasn't available to pre-order till a few weeks (or it might have been days?) later on Amazon.

I'm just waiting on my 56/1.2 preorder, which I did at like 5AM at B&H the day of announcement. B&H shows early March for current orders (not sure if that's for ALL orders). The more I see from this lens, the more I am itchy waiting for it, and it's like it can't come soon enough. After this, my Fuji lens lineup is essentially complete. If they released an 85/2 or a 300/4, I might be tempted, and I might eventually get the 10-24, but there's no real driver on that one with the 14mm in my bag...
Come on, 56....
Come on, 56....
