I placed an order for a 17" Imac online last week 8/20. First the Est. Ship date is 8/25. The 25th came and order status is still "open". I checked the status today and it has been to a ship date of 8/28. Should I cancel (can I?) this order and wait for the new one?

What does that have to do with anything?

Most dealers still seem to be fully stocked unlike the powerbook and we know how long that product line has been dry. I would just wait for it to come.

The word on the net is new iMacs in about 6-8 weeks.

A 3 day delay is nothing. A 3 week delay would be a better indicator.

Update: Paris Expo is September 16-20. New iMacs then?

I went ahead and cancelled the order. I would hate regretting buying an older iMac when they new ones will come soon. Sept is around the corner and I do not mind the wait Plus the ADC discount will come in handy
