[Probably because they can't ship *now*, as it will be released on the 25th. We'll see, I guess. -Ben]

I think that Prince makes a 1st batch of CDs Now ... and waits till those sell ... and then sends another batch ... SO he dont have a bunch left over like with crystal ball ... ONLY On NPGMC can U order an album on the very 1st DAY and B on back Order ... this IS bad Buisiness and the reason PPL R not Joining the club anymore! Pfffttt Im gettin annoyed with his bad decisions

Sorry Bout the bad spelling ...lol

One the NPGMC forums people have asked about this. The moderators said that the email is just standard fare because the CDs aren't shipping until the 25th. The retail company probably just used their standard backorder email since they aren't shipping anything in there standard turnaround time. Don't sweat it.

it's called a pre-order. Amazon does it all the time. I pre-ordered the Simpsons 3rd season DVD last May and it won't ship until September. I guess Amazon must be a bad business then.

I ordered this cd, 7:30 am on the 19th. I recieved a confirmation of order (not this email)!

I guess this backs up the possibility that the first batch of N.E.W.S. has been allocated.

I ordered mine early that day also, and received a confirmation of my order.
