Anyway, I'll quit waffling. I just want to know roughly when it will be, and would rather be put out of my misery and someone just say "late september", than watch the date for delivery get postponed again, and again, and again.

I think we all secretly wish that we come back to this forum one day (in some cases it's hourly visits) in the hope that someone from the Oculus team will finally put us out of our misery with a more realistic time frame or decent reply. I don't need to be told my Rift will be here next week, as great as that would be, but I'd rather have an OFFICIAL word that its going to be another 2 months...at least then we could all stop stressing, getting excited, worked up or disappointed over it.

I noticed on Pre Order (http://www.oculus.com/) page that there's no delivery timeframe now it always said June for me. I think its probably a good idea.

If you select "pre-order" the following page says "New orders are expected to ship August 2013." I agree with you though, it would probably be better to not provide an estimate based on what's happened so far. I say take a Valve or id approach to the situation, a "when it's done", or in this case, "when it's shipped".
