Allow me to digress to the UK:
There are no Apple stores anywhere near the city I live in. Bear in mind I'm looking for a 15" 2.4Ghz stock model.
The local IT stores (PC World basically, oh and John Lewis) are advertising the new 2.16 and 2.33 models. PC World online has the (really) newer models (not 17") but you can't get them in-store, and only the £1599 edition can be ordered for home delivery.
Play.com have the new models, the release date is the 29th of June.
Amazon.co.uk finally have the new models. But they are more expensive than Apple and dispatch is 4-6 weeks. Pathetic
.
Macwarehouse.co.uk have them in-stock, with a £3 discount! But it's an extra £10+ for delivery
Laptopsdirect.co.uk have them, with a £40 discount. Delivery £14.95 plus VAT.
Dabs.com don't list the new ones.
Insight have them with a a few quid discount! Amazing since last week the lead time for 4 weeks.
Am hoping PC World have them locally when I want to purchase in a few days...
