Technically they can do a NR any day of the week, even Sunday. But reality pretty well dictates that today is the last day before Christmas! If they haven't got the BFS all signed and readied for NR, they are not going to bend backwards just to make the retails happy - that has not been their concern so far, and the only SH that matters doesn't care about NR's; he has the inside story! That's sad but reality! We'll have to make it a Merry X'mas even without the BFS! JMO
