release date Apple lists this as a 31 October release date on their website. Amazon says 11 October. What is the deal?

or perhaps they just made a mistake and corrected it as soon as they realized they put the wrong date.

I don't think they would make such "mistake" by accident. millions of ppl are looking forward to buy this shuffle. I think amazon got the word from apple, but apple did not deliver their promise to amazon for marketing purposes.

They didn't push the release back. Apple was always going to release the shuffle on October 31, but Amazon had it listed more than two weeks earlier when there was literally no chance of their listing being true. I can wait, lol, it's not a big deal, but it's still shady.

Wow....it is like you have never seen a company push back a release before. Hope you are looking forward to the new play station. If you can't wait...buy the nano.

The newest version does not exist on Amazon yet as Apple just announced an updated line from their keynote yesterday (October 22nd). Essentially the newest version is available through Apple only right now.

Thank you for the update. Major bummer - Apple seems to be screwing Amazon and the other retailers by holding out inventory of the new iMacs from them. I don't want to wait another month + either, so I'll probably get one from the Apple store too, and suffer the $150 tax hit. Booooo to Apple on this one.

The Sept 1 press release for this product said Oct 2 release date (which was when the pre-order finally showed up on Amazon). I contacted Samsung on Oct 2, and they said "Early October" release. They couldn't give me any more details, so I guess we can expect this within two weeks. I felt "hinted" that we'd know something more definitive by Oct 5, although the sales rep couldn't say much. No word on the included accessories either, and even some of Amazon's specs for the different models don't line up with what Samsung originally announced in the press release. I hope this gets straightened out soon.

Jane, sorry. I looked at all the product details and there is nothing about what version or date is being sold. There's no information about the seller on Amazon, other than its positive delivery ratings. If you call Amazon customer service they may have more detail, or may be able to get it from the seller. Good luck.

does anyone know when the release date is for Amazon? other small dinky stores are already selling it but I'd feel a lot safer if it came directly from Amazon. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know when this product will be released. Amazon says one thing and people say another

I bought a Macbook here on May 30 right after it came out and Amazon quoted me a ship date of August 15. After a few days I got an email saying it had been shipped and I had it at my house on June 6th.

Greg: I just got a reply from Amazon customer service. They confirmed that it is not yet released, and did not know when it would be released. I have an email in to HP customer service and will let you know what I hear!

My experience in the past is Amazon aims for you to get the device the day its available to the public. My preorders in the past have arrived on the listed "available on" date. I'd try contacting Amazon directly though- it seems to mildly vary from product-to-product as to when preorders are actually received by the buyer.

I ordered mine on Sept 21 and still have had no luck, unfortunately, I can't just cancel my order and buy straight from apple because of some amazon gift cards I used to purchase it. When these gift cards are gone, I hope to not be doing much, if any, more business with amazon.

Reading the Apple Support forums, people are getting the black MacBooks now from Amazon even when they are quoted a July shipping date. Also, in the MB 1.83 Ghz Amazon forum, someone mentioned that he got his shipped and delivered earlier this month even when quoted a late shipping date.So I think that Amazon is just being conservative as Apple is notorious for not having enough supply for their products. I think Amazon is just trying to cover their butts in case Apple can't meet demand and doesn't allocate enough shipments to Amazon.

I've noticed lately that Amazon has been giving very conservative estimates on its shipment/arrival dates. My items have always arrived well before Amazon's "estimated" arrival dates. I think this is a game they play with us so that we're happy when our packages arrive "early." The real question is whether or not Amazon actually has these in stock. Is Apple holding them back from everybody until Wednesday? Or are they just asking their sellers to not put them in customers' hands until Wednesday?

N. Bird, you are correct, according to an Apple rep who I spoke with on 12/2 after posting my reply to the original post. The other thing is, my customer sales person from Apple was able to offer me a 6% discount on the spot when I told them of the $50 differential between Amazon's price and theirs. I know!! Her response: "Yeah, not enough people ask for a discount when they call, but they should!" All told, with tax (from both the Apple store AND Amazon), I'd have saved $2 by buying from Amazon... Not worth it! I'm buying my iMac direct from Apple for peace of mind.
