To preorder or not to preorder?

Well we are a day older and a day closer to the release of my new preorder and I don't think anybody cares, when I was assured this preorder thing was the best thing since sliced bread, but then store-bought sliced bread isn't all that great either, so maybe I'll just take my chances next time and release the book when I'm done with it.  It's a great little trick to rack up opening day sales for big name authors, but for us nobodies, it really is kind of silly!
