Default Amazon shipping?

Has anyone (non-prime members) noticed a slowdown in Amazon shipping?
I ordered an Amazon Kindle 8" HD tablet and the estimated shipping
time was 4 weeks. I was tempted to cancel the order, but I'm not in a
hurry to get it, so I let it slide. However, this is the first time
I've ever seen that long of a shipping time on a main-stream Amazon
product.

I don't buy much on Amazon anymore, but I'm wondering if others have
noticed a slow-down. I also wonder if this is intentional so as to
"encourage" people to join their "Prime" membership program.



Some of the items are shipped by the seller or distributer, and do not
come out of Amazon warehouses. If the shipper is overseas, delivery
can take weeks.
