B&N.com talked to me!

I talked to somebody at B&N.com! They have 30 orders and said they'd hit Ingram today. I was hopeful, but it hasn't happened. So I have no idea when the delay will end. I know they order automatically and a computer figures it all out (as the guy kept explaining to me), but that wasn't the question I was asking. I couldn't care less whether they stock extra copies or not - all I wanted to know was when they would order the ones they had sold. The guy made a point of saying it did no good to call them. And I guess it didn't - there is still no order. But, at least I know how many they sold.

I have to say the B&N store people are a lot more pleasant - but I don't care as long as B&N.com get books to their buyers.
