Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone may have some better information about the ship date of the iPod. Here's what I'm wondering...I have an order in place for my toy(with Apple), and I also have a CompUSA within about 5 miles. Do I keep my order with Apple or do I nix it and hope that CompUSA has the units on sale on the day they are supposed to go on sale...There's no Apple Store close to where I am, otherwise I would just go there...Speaking of which, does anyone know if there's going to be a store in the Philly area?

Hasta,

Josh

My take is that if you need to have it on November 10th, you need to find your way to an official Apple store.. The iPod will be made available to buy at Apple stores on the 10th. If you ordered from Apple, my guess is that they won't start shipping until close to that date (who knows though)...

Stores like CompUSA, Outpost, etc. will probably not have them until some time after they are released from Apple (couple weeks at least?)..

My advice is that if you're paying the same price, ordering it from Apple will get it to you faster..
