Gotta say, work is not very good at product launches. They're the sort of place that only puts out something new every 5 years or so but this has been a real hodge-podge.
When I worked for the world's largest instrument manufacturer we would sometimes have 3 product launches in a week, but they were bad at launches in their own way. They'd announce something then say stock wouldn't arrive for a couple of months. When stock finally hit stores we weren't talking about it because we were preparing for the next product launch.
