Curious as to how many people here on PS have yet to get the call from JJP telling them their Hobbit is finished and ready to ship. I'm still waiting...my pin was ordered 8/2/03.

I could have done the same but by waiting a few months after the games were announced before pre-ordering both my WOZECLE and Hobbit LE I look at it this way...get the latest software, most if not all the bugs worked out, the latest hardware changes implemented and I saved some serious coinage...but...I never expected to have to wait this long for my Hobbit. I thought things would be easier and faster for them to produce a new pin the second time around.

I know the wait will be worth it but it's not easy this waiting around thing.

Our Hobbit was delivered and set up Christmas Eve in the morning. Three years and four months of patiently waiting (for the most part) for our preorder to arrive. Now that it's here I must say it was worth the wait. So far the game has played flawlessly. I thought the game would be good but it has far surpassed my families expectations. It is in my mind an instant classic with great game play...there's just so much to do. With a few more final code tweak's in the works it appears JJP will have produced another total winner.

I personally want to thank you Jack for helping me with delivery and set up...you are a man of your word. A quick shout out to Jen and all at JJP too!
