Valve ‘clarifies’ Steam Deck pre-order timeline to panicked users

The Steam Deck was released at the tail-end of February to mostly positive reviews, which meant that dozens of tech-heads are clamoring to get their hands on one. Today, some patient souls in the Steam Deck subreddit reported that their order availability changed, but Valve says it's not a delay.

Several users in multiple threads in the subreddit say their order timelines are different: one user says the order date went from Q2 to "after Q2," and then finally Q3. Several said that their order status became more specific, such as "after Q2" becoming Q3, but others say they moved from "after Q2" to "after Q3." As such, it makes sense that they would perceive it as a delay.
