One of the BIG problems with manufacturing in China is that you have to really watch what is happening on the manufacturing of the product. If you don't, especially on a specialized / complex item, you will get bad product. I am not surprised that there are delays for something like this, I am surprised at the lack of communication. That comes from the top and generally shows incompetence for management. That is driven by fear of loosing customers on a shortsightedness. With continued products being late, they should realize that the lack of communication does more harm than just being truthful about delays. That is a disconnect from the company leadership. That also makes it extremely tough for the good employees trying to turn out good product. Tough position to be in, working under weasley leadership.
