    In the Austrian Apple Store, only the steel and aluminum versions are available. Anyone have a clue why? You can get it from the US, UK, Germany, etc. (not in Belgium though either).

    Trade in credit for APW Series 4

    Is anyone else bothers by the fact that apple is only offering $110 dollars for the series 4? I have the stainless steel gold model and paid well over what they are offering as a trade in. It would be so much better to just go private party since apple is devaluing their own product to junk.
