Probably because they are only notionally "out"; it takes a couple of weeks
after the general launch for them to actually appear, at least in the United
Kingdom.

I have a preorder in for the Zire 71 because having to delete things every so
often from my Zire, with its fixed maximum 1.8MB free, was becoming a nuisance.

Also £207 is only marginally above my rule of thumb (£200 or less for a
handheld); the Tungsten C is outrageously expensive and anyone who buys it "for
chess" needs their head examined ;)

So we shall see, in due course.
