The store where I got it (Kansas) ordered it in and it arrived in about a week. I just picked it up yesterday. The dealer did about a 2 hour overview of it and demonstrated some of the things it could do. I will go back after I have worked with it awhile for more lessons. I've already looked at some of the videos of it on the Janome website and I know there are YouTube videos that show a lot of things, too. Mine also came bundled with an iPad 2. It really has a lot of features. I'm sure I'm going to love it and so will you.
