   Reliable?  Probably.   
      
   Acceptable as a source?  No.   
      
   YesAsia is a fairly reputable retail site that would have a lot to lose by   
   selling somethign that doesn't exist.  They're not going to risk their   
   reputation by accepting pre-orders if they weren't fairly certain that it   
   will come to be.
