I live in the UK and ordered a 9100 on the 2nd of March. I asked about lead times, and was told there were none, but as soon as I gave my credit card details I was told there was a "future order SKU", meaning it would take longer. The date given was the 16th. This has changed 4 or five times since, and yesterday my estimated delivery date went from 1st April to 6th of May! They keep telling us this is becaause of a huge demand, yet I know of no-one in the UK who has received one yet, and I ordered the day after they started accepting orders!
