No, I'm afraid not. Sweetwater's website now has a somewhat nebulous update that states:
"We have already placed orders for this new item, and ensured that they are prioritized to take advantage of the manufacturer's earliest shipments. Pre-order with us now, and we'll send it to you as soon as the first batch arrives at Sweetwater."
Gee, that could be tomorrow or July for all I know! I'm seriously beginning to think that Akai have run afoul of Apple in some way and are trying to sort it out.
Mine has been on backorder from Musician's Friend since 4/19, which, by the way, was the date they had listed for the release. I've rec'd 3 emails letting me know it's on backorder. No promise of when, though the week of 5/9 was mentioned once (which is now nearly over).
