It sounds more like Avidyne is having problems getting the production rate to where they were expecting.
I don't know if it is too late to cancel a pre-order and buy a retail unit, but in between my fifth and sixth e-mail copies of the "Avidyne Insider" that announced the free transponder I received e-mail from Sarasota Avionics showing a special IFD 540 price of $13,495. If that includes the transponder it is a very tempting offer. It isn't on their website but I called and confirmed it was real. I'm too far from Florida to take advantage of it though.
