Why does it seem like there are no Champagne docks being shipped?

If you look at the history at nowinstock of the docks being in-stock at stores, it's always been the grey and never the champagne.

I've have my Champagne tablet since December 30th and ordered it the same day as the dock (both from Amazon) but haven't heard anything from Amazon. Has Asus said anything about this? It's like there are none going out to anywhere.
 
I ordered the champagne tablet and dock from Amazon on 11/22. Received the tablet on 12/30, dock was slated for 1/10. On 1/9, got an email stating that the dock was pushed back to 2/9. I renewed the pre-order, but also ordered a grey dock from Best Buy. Received the grey on 1/10, and now have a two-toned Transformer, which really doesn't look at all bad.

I too ordered both on 11/22. Received my champagne 32gb from Amazon on 12/30. Dock had been scheduled for 1/5 delivery. On 1/5, received email from Amazon that product was delayed, got the option to keep order open, and it has been sitting in a "we'll notify you status" ever since. I love my Prime, but it really gets old having to wait so long for everything pertaining to this device.

I think they're discontinuing it or something based on everything that is coming out today. That's probably the reason.

I doubt that. I think if Amazon weren't expecting stock they wouldn't have offered to continue my order. I was at both Best Buy and Microcenter today. Both places indicated Prime sales are still so strong that the stores probably won't see a regular stock for a couple of weeks.
