Hi Strawberry,
Good luck in your application! We applied for Federal Entrepreneur Visa in November 2008 through Buffalo. ( We are from the UK, living in USA, on an Entrepreneur Visa here ) We received a file number about 6 weeks later. We were called for interview in May (7 months after application was filed)...and received paperwork for medicals yesterday!...so less than a year. We were expecting at least 2 years wait. CIC web site states 2- 5 years processing time for applications filed through Buffalo. So maybe we were just lucky, to get this far so quickly, I dont know, but here's hoping your wait won't be as long as you think!
