I have Skyrim on preorder from Gamelane in Australia. They have been saying that they cannot post it until the 14th but now they sent me an email that it might be the 18th, which means I wont get it till the 21st. I am thinking of cancelling and going out and buying it in the morning, even though this will cost me at least $19 more over my pre-order discount, although I will phone to reserve a copy before going in as it can cost me a bundle in public transport as well to get it this way (up to $30 for each attempt as I am disabled and often need to use Taxis). Oh, and Gamelane claims that Bethesda is responsible as the EU PC version is what I had ordered and they claim that the release date is pushed back, for which I can find absolutely no evidence anywhere online and plenty of evidence that this is just wrong. JB HiFi has been selling a PC version for two days now apparently, and I know of people in Europe who are playing the PC version. I got Oblivion at the midnight release, but its proving hard to get Skyrim - its infuriating.
