If there weren't so many people like you, it would be easy to get 1040ST's!
What I mean by that is there is such an AMAZING demand for them that we can't
nearly supply them fast enough.

This is an example of what's known in the business world as a "high class
problem".

Try to be a little patient and I'm sure a machine will turn up for you.
