I think you will start to see iPod Shuffles nationwide at the Apple Stores starting mid-week and/or probably for sure this coming Friday at the release of the Mac mini/iLife.

The response I've gotten from Apple employees is "full shipments will arrive on the 22nd" which would coinside with the release of iLife and the mini Mac and iWork. The Apple Stor…

Called the Houston store this morning and also got the comment about them coming in on the 22. I did notice this on Apple's website: Can you buy the 5-machine license for iLife…

None in the Palo Alto or San Jose stores.

Pasadena has the 512 in stock as of Tuesday 1/18 12:30 pm. None at Glendale. I want a 1 Gig, perhaps early Saturday morning is my best bet.

For everyone in NYC I just returned from CompUSA (hahahahaa) on 57th and Broadway (more like corner of 57 and sixth though ). They have full stock of 512MB iPod shuffles, even a…

Dont tell everyone!! But seriously, thanks for the update. I am still on fence about whether or not I need one. If I get one, it should really be the 1 gig though. Maybe I'll stop…

is that normal policy for apple stores?

Quote: Originally posted by ender2002: is that normal policy for apple stores? don't know. maybe the demand is unusually high for the shuffle.

Heads up for those in the UK: I bagged a 512Mb one today at the London Applestore - No 1Gb ones. More than half of the people in the queue were there for the Shuffle. First impre…

I called Woodfield, Old Orchard and North Michigan Ave. All sold out this morning in the first ten minutes. Wow. I just ordered it online.

Saturday Morning 1-22-05 Glendale did not have any shuffles. Pasadena did not have any shuffles. Both stores sold out of their mac minis wi the first hour. Seemed like both stores…

Albany still doesn't have any. They said they haven't even seen the 1G model yet, and sold out of the 512M earlier in the week as soon as they came in.
