Nintendo Wii to be available at Costco.com on Sunday

Just got this email from Costco.com. I was placed on their notify list for the Nintendo Wii, which I why I received this email. If you can’t read the screenshot, this is what it says:

Dear Costco Member,

You requested to be notified when the new Nintendo Wii Bundle is available for purchase at Costco Wholesale. This item will be available for purchase on costco.com on Sunday, November 19, 2006 at approximately 8:00 a.m. Pacific Time. The item will be prominently displayed on the homepage of costco.com until it is sold out.

Due to the extremely limited supply, we can accept orders from current Costco members only on a first come, first served basis, with a limit of one unit per household. Selected Costco warehouses will also have a very limited supply on Sunday, November 19, 2006.

Orders for the Nintendo Wii Bundle will be shipped via UPS by Tuesday, November 21, 2006. Tracking information will be available on costco.com.

We hope to receive additional quantities in our warehouses and on costco.com prior to Christmas, but we do not have an estimated arrival date, or approximate quantity at this time. We apologize in advance if you are unable to purchase this item from Costco Wholesale.

According to the store managers, there will be a bundle including the Wii and two games (Zelda and Excite Truck) for $339.99.

Edit: Got one! It never showed up on the site (link stating the Wii being available was there, but it just led to a page with some Wii games), but I learned through a forum that adding to the cart using the item number would work. I had to reload the place order page a dozen times before it went through (even though not many people could order it was very slow nonetheless). Less than a minute after I successfully placed my order the item finally shows up on the site but it’s out of stock!
