Here's your rough timeline so far.

"We will not be meeting our estimated end-of-summer ship date. Our new target is to deliver the the bulk of the Parallella boards (6,300) between September 31st (best case scenario) to October 31st ("worst case" scenario)."

"2.) Ship the first 200 Parallella product boards by November 15th.
3.) Ramp up to 6,300 units as quickly as we possible!"

They'll probably add another update about the Nov dates in the next week or so. But since we're just speculating here, I'd guess that the Feb dates you posted would be more realistic on the KS line. Preorders by Feb seems fairly optimistic at this point, but who knows.

Making innovative product is always hard, even for big companies.
