As explained to you above, the 300 has been leaked early. If it’s not a leak (along with all the other times it’s happened) then it’s just unprofessionalBahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Wed Aug 24, 2022 4:49 pmWhat's laughable? I'm not a mind reader.

It has not been leaked and there has not been any form of IT hiccup.
CW must think a Restricted audience is the whole world. I’ll stay with leak or IT cock-upBahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Wed Aug 24, 2022 4:56 pmIt has not been leaked and there has not been any form of IT hiccup.
In which case I guess you consider a 'Soft Launch' unprofessional.

Whether this meets that specific definition of a "soft launch" or not, this was definitely the plan all along. The Admin Team knew about it in advance. It was not a leak or IT cock-up. Whether you believe me is for you to decide, of course.
It's more of a farrago than a embargo. I'm holding my counsel until tomorrow even so. I can wait.jkbarnes wrote: ↑Wed Aug 24, 2022 4:40 pmI’m assuming it’s because the 300 Pro can currently be searched for and seen on CW’s webpage, despite it not having been officially launched yet.
This “soft launch” method is quite common. I don’t understand the snarky upset? Many retailers run a soft open before a grand opening, and have done so for decades. Car manufacturers offer sneak peeks well in advance of order taking and the eventual model launch, true since my grandparents bought their first cars a century ago. Mont Blanc have done it with their pens for years. The car companies do it with more fanfare and glitz while retailers are typically quieter.
