Has anyone heard the VPI Classic yet

They were supposed to be shipping soon. Has anyone purchased this table yet?

Also, I had the cart before buying the Classic so I didn't audition any other ones with it.

It will be released for widespread viewing I think in a week's time I believe is the timing. So it should show up on the site shortly.
