Any news on GP-E2 availability?

I ordered it from Amazon and it was actually delivered from Norman Camera

I just talked to B&H Customer Service. Apparently they got a small number in last week that were shipped to pre-orders. They just got a larger shipment in and are fulfilling more pre-orders and they weren't sure if they'd have any others beyond what they're fulfilling there. I was told that based on qty received, mine would most likely be shipping out Monday.

I'm debating whether I should buy it or not. Amazon apparently has them. But I need a good reason why I would need it. Help me out guys! ;D

I had my back order on B&H since April; today I canceled the order and picked it up on Amazon--should be here tomorrow.

Absolute must have--no; other ways to achieve--sure but I do enjoy having my photos tagged, imported into Aperture 3 and see where I have been on map. This will make it easy to do.

I got my GP-E2, but it doesn't look like they have updated the firmware for the 7D yet -- so it's really of no use to me yet. Any ideas as to when they new Firmware will be out?

Finally got my GP-E2 today.

I've discovered an odd issue with my GP-E2 in the last week. As I was reviewing shots taken today I'm finding that it looses it's mind when I shoot indoor for any period of time. Today, the first group of shots I took showed the location based on when I entered the building but then at some point during the hour I was inside it started recording the location data for a location in China. External shots before going in and after coming out we're accurate.
