MicroLogix1400 Inventory Issues?

First of all, I don't intend this to be a "hate on A-B" thread, I just wanted to see if I was alone here. Last year, I used a MicroLogix1400 on a project. We ordered it and had it in hand within a month (standard order times for our local distributor.) Fast forward about six month, and I order another ML1400 for a job (this was in December) and it still isn't here. Not only isn't it here, but our distributor can't find one anywhere in the country, and can't get an answer from A-B as to when we can expect it. Is anyone else seeing this recently with the ML1400 in particular, and A-B parts in general? Thanks.

I heard that there's a problem with the Ethernet/IP parts internally, a vendor went bankrupt, that kind of thing.
Only the 1400 is affected.
Just what I heard....which means that's what we are intended to hear.
