This 'out of stock' should be normal.

That may work for them, but it doesn't do much for the customer. And, it doesn't excuse running out of RCs before ship date. And, please, do not suggest that upgrading '05 was an acceptable alternative.
It's come to the point where there is no "off season", as evidenced by the volume here on ChiefDelphi. IMO, IRI is way better than any Regional, and this year was much better than the Champs. We would have been better prepared had IFI been there for us. They were one for four at having what we needed, no matter what season.
