I didn't see how to get the engraving on the back of the iPod ... how can I get Apple to add it?

P.S. 15" Al SuperDrive, 5400RPM

It should have been an option in checkout, but it's not like you're missing much by not getting it. It just makes it harder to sell if you decide you want to upgrade to a new version after a while.

As soon as they opened, 9:00am sharp (Central Time) I was on the phone to Apple ... 15 minute wait ... told only way to get inscription on the iPod was to cancel the first order and reorder.

He cancelled, I reordered ... the trick is, DO NOT choose the menu option to order your iPod while completing your PowerBook order.
- Get the PowerBook in your cart first.
- Then "Continue Shopping" to order your iPod
- That way the option to "personalize" your iPod appears ... otherwise, I couldn't find a way to get to it.

Oh, and yes, it will be HER iPod ... so the inscription is as, if not more important than the PowerBook itself

Resale ain't the issue!

BTW, from 7:00 to 9:15am EST my order number increased by approximately 1500! Damn I hope they don't run out!
