u cant play it on the release day if you preload over steam. If you wish to get a retail copy (cd's) then u will have to wait 4-6 weeks

Yeah, you'll have to wait.. can't expect much more from a product re-routed via another company. If it's a problem for you and you can't download through steam, sell your voucher on ebay and just buy the game in a store on release day.

You might not get quite the full value, though you could have if you'd thought of it earlier.

EDIT: Another idea-- get someone to burn the preloaded .gcf files and mail them to you, and then you can get it through steam without having to download a thing, if that helps. This has been confirmed to be perfectly legal by valve, since you still have to pay to unloack the game (or use your voucher, as the case may be).

..What? I was sure you could play it, on the release day.. as long as you have it bought through Steam, and Pre-Loaded.. Am I missing something here?

No, you're not missing anything- pretty sure they meant to say "can".
