also appears to be facing shortages, six out of thirteen options aren't available. I believe there were only three configurations out of stock a few weeks ago.

Out of Stock: 2.93GHz i7 8GB/1TB/256GB SSD; 2.8GHz i5 8GB/1TB/256GB SSD; 2.93GHz i7 8GB/2TB; 2.93GHz i7 4GB/1TB; 21.5" 3.6GHz i5 8GB/2TB; 21.5" 3.6GHz 4GB/1TB

Many of the models left in stock are fairly standard configurations - no SSDs or upgraded hard drives, and only two 27" models with upgraded (8GB) RAM.

If you go to configure an upgraded processor/HDD/SSD/RAM from MacMall, shipping times increase to 5 to 7 days (from same day) which is another rather good sign of an update within the next few days.

Yeah even apples bto increases 1-3days which may not mean much but im anticipating this next week should see something in the form of new imacs. cant wait to see their specs, hope theyre as good as theyre being speculated about.

Apple's BTO (in the USA) usually defaults to 1-3 shipping days. Shipping time in the USA is still 24 hours for 'off-the-shelf' iMacs.
