I called Honda Australia, they too have no further information to add regarding shipment or release. They didn't even know that it should be coming around March. Seems there is no oversight with the information and there may exist multiple channels of information which for a major company is a bit disturbing in relation to ISO standards for documention and information etc.

... I do hate the Honda website, makes me want to go work for them; damn their robotics teasing *shakes fist*
