    I've had the pre-order in since the day Amazon.com released the notice that pre-orders were being taken back in August.

    PQ & SQ are just plain awesome. This is a real treat. The extras in this movie were also soooo worthwhile. So much better movie than even in the theatres.

    Yeah, I've had the EE box set on order from Amazon for 77.98 or if you take advantage of their credit card offer (which I did not) I believe they knock $30 off - (At least at the time I ordered last month). Then I also see it at B & N for 83.98 or 79.78 if you're a B & N member (think it costs $25/year)....

    And originally Amazon stated it wouldn't ship until after Christmas but according to the site mine is shipping out today. Cool! Maybe just in time for the weekend!!:)
