Some Leaf delivery delays in the US

An email Autoblog's reader John L. claims he got from Nissan:

Hi John, thank you for reserving your Nissan LEAF™. The response to this 100% electric car has been amazing.
Customers in your state will not be able to order until late summer 2011. In the meantime, we are working hard with our partners to further develop the charging infrastructure in your area so your entire ownership experience is of the highest quality.
If you have any other questions, please contact us through our Nissan LEAF live chat or by calling 877-NO-GAS-EV

I'm not surprised at all, but it sure is a bit of downer and of a wake up call for the EV industry: increase production to meet an ever surging global demand for EVs.
