I walked into the Egham Special Reserve about an hour ago, hoping to pick up my copy, only to be told "Well, it's supposed to be released today, but we haven't recieved any copies".

???

Any reasons why SR?

I then walked into Woolworths (long shot) who didn't have one either.

Has it been released or not??

It was hardly a wasted journey, since the shop is a 20 second detour on my way home, but I ended up buying it at Electronics Boutique instead... :/

We received several shipments (of various quantities) and concentrated on fulfilling pre-orders first. We still expected sufficient stock for the shops but the last two deliveries did not arrive until the afternoon of release. As a result some of our shops had stock on Friday and others had to wait until Saturday morning. Sorry if you had a wasted journey - it is very rare that our shops do not have stocks on the day or release.

Why don't you try posting this in the SR customer service section. They answer your questions in there I think.
