wondering when ipod touch will we shipped ordered from apple but seen on amazon it will be shipped on 24th sep , 4days before apple ship there's, thought it was weird, anyone have any ideas

28th september i have been quoted for delivery on the 1st or 2nd of october but it does indicate they may ship before the 28th of september , take the amazon shipping date with a pinch of salt as i can't see them shipping before apple

yeh kinda thought that, hope amazon dont ship it before as i would be very disappointed with apple. hope it does come sooner, cant wait lol

shipping date is clearly stated on the apple store I doubt amazon could ship 4 days before the people who made it say so lol

Has anyone used the £20 code? Can it only be used on the Apple website?

£20 code? Any details on it?

yes russell check the other ipod touch thread http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/forums/s...d.php?t=651315

I don't get where to enter the code?

It's quite far on in the process, the same page you put your card details in it's in the right column.

On macrumours they posted a thread on people selling them on ebay already. Ebay removed the USA listing but the uk guy is still there promising delivery on the 22nd. Im sure there is a possibility he got them from an official source as apple have probably already shipped a few to stores already.

Ive emailed him to see which method he is posting the item. 3 Emails and no reply! Why does he expect me to spend £200 with a guy who cant be bothered to reply to my emails.

Amazon seem the best source, They started selling the new ipods on the expected date. Although i dont know if it will arrive on the 24th or be posted then!. Can anyone who has bought one from amazon tell me your expected delivery date?


Thanks

when you get to the verify order screen, under billing/delivery address and next to payment method theres a text box with enter promotional code

The I Touch looks fantastic.. there was a big poster in Argos this morning, but not sure how many they will be getting and there will probably be a christmas sell out!

I can't wait to get an iPod touch...but are they going to release ones with bigger memory? 16GB is just not enough...

They'll definately release them with bigger memory.......when is the more difficult question!!

I presume its the cost of 30+ gb of flash memory which is holding the capacity back once the price drops on that then they'll release bigger capacity ones.

Be surprised if they release any bigger capacity ones before 2008 tbh.

I just placed an order and it showed a shipping date of 28th September but an ETA on delivery of 2nd October.

I am guessing it may be quicker to buy one in an apple store and I may cancel the order, I also did not expect them to debit my card immediately (I assumed it would be debited when shipped) which I think is a bit of a cheek.

yeh debit cards are debited straight away regardless if its shipped on not, its credit cards that are pending charging and charged before shipping

I'm suprised they didn't launch one with 30GB+ at a very high price. There are plenty people out there who will just buy the ver best no matter what the price.

I have cancelled my order. I rang Apple and they said it was almost certain they would be available in Apple stores before I would recieve an online order, apparently they want to get them visible to the public ASAP.

I am wondering if it is possible that they will be in Apple stores before the 28th?

According to Argos, they are in stock and you can get one by monday!!!

Ive lust looked at argos and it may look like their in stock, however, on the page (they might have just added it), it says something like. "You will be contacted when the first stock becomes available to confirm delivery dates"

Honestly their are bound to be many retailers in the uk have them in stock right now as apple wont ship them all to stores on the 27th for 28th release. Im about to buy one via amazon but im holding out for a faster delivery and earlier release.

My gut feeling is they will be in Apple stores next week not sure about the likes of Argos etc

i hope so, i just went to order one from amazon and now it states 4 to 6 weeks delivery. I think they must have sold their first shipment out already!.

we at Argos got all the nano's and stuff in today - but no touches.

apparently some apple stores in the usa have got stock of the 16gb in and are selling them. There are picrures on the net of people unwraping them and starting them up.
Also on the net is a guy who got one yesterday,powered it up only to find that OSX hadnt been loaded and it was only a diagnostic tool on it. Which showed "Bluetooth" as disabled, Some are reporting that it has bluetooth but apple have disabled it!

Got any links?
