I also agree with you that Lenovo's interests seem to be more towards the Far East than the US. India is getting ICS on the K1 first, Lenovo's Hong Kong website is the only one where you can do a live customer service chat, and so on. It's rather frustrating.

I see that the K1 and the cable have now disappeared from Lenovo's website entirely.

 

Is there any plan to fulfill the outstanding orders for these cables or are we SOL?
