For a very short period of time they were but sold out quickly as they was a very limited supply. Toms wrote an article about it before they released.

Look what happened to Nvidia, all they did was lie about the release date so they could make more.
At least AMD released them on the day they said, even if it is in short quantaties. There is nothing wrong with that. Intel only make paper releases and currently only make HEDT CPU's so people should really not just pick on AMD.
They have released a GPU they said they would, and it IS available today. Shortage or not? I don't see it being a major shoretage when 3 days later I can still buy it online, so it's not exactly "sold out" shortage.
