I'm trying to get Visual Studio 2010 Professional ordered in the UK, but although Microsoft's global launch date was April 12th, it seems we're still unable to buy it on this side of the Atlantic. Despite Microsoft UK's website saying that it's available to buy from retailers such as Dabs and Amazon, visiting their sites either yields nothing (Dabs) or says it won't be in stock till May 31st (Amazon).
If you're trying to get Visual Studio 2010 on a Volume License or Select Agreement, resellers are saying that it's not even on their price list yet, and to try again in May. I know I can use the trial version personally, but until I can get a quote, I can't convert all of my work over to .NET 4 until I'm sure the quote will get signed off.
So, my question to Microsoft is: what happened? We don't even need physical media, so why can't UK Volume license customers buy it if our American cousins can? Contact Me if you know.
