New Apple TV sold in Best Buy?

[jol45]

The Apple website puts the shipping date at ~4 weeks, I was just wondering since there is no Apple retail store around me if the new ATV will be available at Best Buy on the release date?

Also, what is the release date for retail stores? I can't seem to find it anywhere online.

Thanks.

I'm just not sure if there will be some delay between when it's available in Apple Stores vs. Best Buy, similar to the iPad.

shouldn't be too long of a wait

I can't say for sure, but I would guess that if they don't get them on release day, it will be shortly after. Even with the iPad, it was just a few days later. I used to be in the same situation, not having an Apple store near by so I had to rely on the local Best Buy. With grabbing a few new products at launch, I've never had to wait too long.

Appreciate the response. Hopefully they get it on or near the release date (still unsure when that is). I doubt there will be a run on Best Buy that day, I doubt many people know about the new TV.
