I've been following this thread with interest. I have three of these on order with two different suppliers, not wanting to put all my eggs in one basket as I desperately need at least one for work, I can wait for the other two - i'm looking to cheaply replace three dead 30" Samsung's which all went bad within weeks of each other. I spoke to one retailer today and I was told that they're possibly getting stock Christmas week but, realistically it was going to be the new year. They also alluded to having issues with AOC. I was also hoping the talk of OCUK receiving stock early on was true so I could re-order here and cancel the other orders.
