Now that delivery of the new iBooks seems to have ramped up, I'm curious as to why there seem to be two (at least) different places from which they ship.

Most people seem to be getting theirs' from Taiwan, but mine (and at least a couple of other peoples) have come from Rancho Cordova (near Sacramento, and not that far away from Cupertino), CA.

Anyone know the why/how/what's of the difference?

Mine went from Taiwan to Anchorage, Alaska to Indianapolis, Indiana to Cleveland, Ohio (where I live). I ordered in the 1st and recieved it on the 8th. I had it delivered using the Fed Ex two-day shipping from Apple (US $15).

I ordered a combo/20G/Airport on the 6th through the Apple education store. Got my shipping notice on Thu the 24th (shipping from CA).

Maybe that's it. Maybe Education Store orders are shipping from California.

My new iBook (DVD/128/10) Shipped from California as well, I ordered it from the Apple Education Store on 5/4. Does anyone have a guess on why the Edu Store orders are shipping from CA?

My iBook should be here tomorrow! =)

Mine was picked up from Taiwan on May 29th and is now sitting in The Netherlands so hopefully it will reach the UK and get to me sometime tomorrow morning.
