I just ordered TWO new 24'' iMacs. Here are the specs:

2.8GHz Core 2 Extreme
2GB RAM
750GB Hard Drive
Wireless keyboard and mouse
(the rest is standard)

and the Apple Store said it won't ship until Sept 12th even though I paid for 2-3 day shipping!! Is anyone else seeing this? Is this correct? I don't want to wait a month for my two new iMac's.

Wireless keyboard is the culprit, AFAIK.

as stated above, it's the wireless keyboard.
call apple! order the wired keyboards, add that when they're available.
(sure it will cost you more, but shipping should change to 3-5 days...)

Just cancelled my order and reordered without the Wireless stuff. The hold on the Apple telephone lines was just too long. Now my new order says:

Ships by: Aug 10 - Aug 14
Delivers by: Aug 14 - Aug 17

Thanks guys!!!

If it's any consolation, I spoke with Cancom who told me that they wouldn't be receiving any stock for a fortnight or so. I ended up placing my order with Apple directly.
