Anybody had any luck getting ahold of the new Antec NSK 6500 case?

Looks like this box is either in high demand or low production. I pre-ordered one from c-source.com on or about April 5 and they among others are still looking to see the NSK 6500 show up in their warehouse. Froogle turns up only about six stores even offering the box - all are "back ordering."

I need to update though this should probaby be on Cases & Cooling.

I still do not have an Antec NSK 6500. Turns out the vendor c-source.com was leading me on about delivery dates. I checked with Antec and they have not officially released this case model yet. C-source.com didn't bother to mention that when they charged my debit card back at the beginning of April. Antec folks on the phone won't openly discuss a release date but a couple of on-line vendors are now saying they expect to have stock about the middle of May. I posed the question to the Antec guy that it would probably be wise to cancel my order and get those funds back earning me interest if it was going to be a long time before product release. he said there was probably no need to do that. Sooooo?

I was tempted to cancel my order but decided not to since C-source.com will ship for free and only charged me $100.00. So maybe in about three weeks I'll post my review of the NSK-6500 on Cases & Cooling.

There always seems to be a cooling advantage in the larger cases. With the arrangement of the HD mounting unit there will be lots of space for airflow from the front to the back of the case. And - it lokks a lot cooler than the 4400, no pun intended.
