Here is what I know, as of today, January 16th.

1) I, as a Commodore employee, have been trying to get one since before
   X-mas.
2) Just today I talked with the manager of the company store, and he told
   me how all 2000HD/1's they had got taken back - this is a paraphrase.
   His actual sentence used the word recalled.
3) I am very frustrated, having been promised this piece of hardware for
   over a month now, and being unable to get any info, even on the inside.

**DISCLAIMER - I'm not trying to start any rumors.  This is just what
               I was told.  I can't get any details from anyone as to
               what the 2091's status is at all.

                                                            Kurt
