I just wanted to comment on the latest posts here. I wouldn't worry that Amanda has canceled based on her interview in which she only mentioned the november thing. I think she mentioned that, because it's something special for her. Her appearance at Collectormania is maybe more like work for her? Although she seems to enjoy meeting fans everywhere.
I also heard that on the Sunday she is to appear at Hearing Dogs for deaf people. A charity that she supports. I hope a link is ok, it's to the charity thing: http://www.hearingdogs.org.uk/media_celebrity_supporters.php
