I got #667 (we all know it was really #666). Ordered Nov 20, delivered 10 very long days later.

You can actually estimate the count just by knowing a few of the SN. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_tank_problem

That's interesting. I would say those 10 days were actually pretty short, considering my GF ordered on Nov 13 and was told "2 to 3 weeks", and has yet to receive a shipping notification. Is the West Coast getting the short end of the stick or what? The waiting is brutal! :)

I was curious about the number of units as well. Mine is sub-100 and I ordered it a few days after the announcement.

Even 500-1000 I'd consider a "low" number, even id not "100 low."

My SN will have to wait until 12/25 grrr

Looking forward to owner reviews of the milk steaming. It seems like a lot of people are receiving their units in the past week. If any of you are perfectionist about your milk texturing, would like to hear your thoughts and see your results.

Steam wand would benefit massively from being a cm or so longer. Not quite sure why they didn't make it slightly longer.

Wouldn't it hit the drip tray if it was longer? From looking at videos and photos, it's as long as it can be.

I've just had a look and yes it would be able to hit the drip tray if it was longer. The way I use the want wouldn't have any issues with it being longer but it would be able to hit the drip tray moving it in certain ways.

Maybe a straighter wand would help with easier reach in the pitcher.
