The only concern that i have is.............why send out a brochure, and a letter explaining that the next letter you receive will be your collection notice, this late in the day?
Is this a nice gesture by Sony, giving us this booklet with reviews of all the top games at release, tech specs of the coveted console, and just about all you need to know about PS2, inside and out, or is there a more sinister reason behind this "gift".
I refer back to a post i left a while back, you know, the one about the rumoured delay, the one that even I discarded as tripe (in the end anyhow :~>). Could.......it........be........... NO it couldn't be true, no way...........they wouldn't do that, not this close to launch, it would be suicidal.
But then why send it at all. A letter that basically says the same as the first confirmation letter, this close to launch, to me it seems a bit strange, but hey, as i said earlier, it could well be just a nice gesture.
Roll on the 24th............................

roll on november 24
Is this Sony's way of breaking it slowly that there is to be a further delay. The helpline says 24th Nov is 100% firm but we know they have been wrong before. I hope Kieran is right and the collection letters are on their way i am sure we will hear it first when one of us received this magic notice.
I dont see Sony delaying the PS2 any longer. The bbok is just a publicity thing to whet your appetite for the PS2. Theu know that the people who have pre-ordered are dedicated gamers and so they are simply giving them the info they want.
I liked it!
Oh well I suppose it probably wasnt worth wasting the money reprinting all the booklets. This could be a collectors item one day as if they print anymore I would imagine that they will take the reference to 'Munchs Odyssey' out.
By the way I spoke to Sony UK the other day and they assure me that:
"The letters notifying of collection dates will begin to be dispatched in approximately a week. This will depend on when you placed your pre-order."
They seem to be leaving it right to the wire but who cares as long as I get my PS2 on the 24th.
Oh, you do.
Ok.
Sorry.
It had better be on my door mat in the morning or the postman gets it..................!
