Apple Ends Delay, Sets iPod Mini Worldwide Launch 28

dncsky1530 writes "Apple Computer said Wednesday that it would end the waiting and launch its iPod mini digital music player around the world on July 24. The release ends a three-month delay of the iPod mini's debut outside the United States. In March, Apple said it would postpone the mini player's release because of stronger-than-expected domestic demand and slow production of the device's hard drives."

    I ordered a Pink miniPod for my girlfriend on 6/28. My estimated ship date of 7/12 was changed to 7/27 a day later, and I live in the U.S. Is Apple stockpiling minis for the worldwide release, or is pink just a really popular color? Perhaps a disgruntled/bitter Apple employee noticed the words "love" and "birthday" in the engraving and decided to ruin both for us. Oh well. I only bought it to be able to touch and see it myself, and her birthday was the excuse I needed to order it. And yes, all of my relationships have been as much of a sham as this one. If only I had one of those symmetrical faces with small features, like on television...
  • I am glad to see Apple is getting the Mini into the hands of the Europeans and Asians (not to the excludusion of other continents). I believe that as popular as the Mini is in the States, the demand in the more electronic-fashion concious Western Europe and Japan, will be higher than in the "bigger-is-best-super-size-my-Hummer" US. (Witness cellular phones, MiniDisc.)

    I have had my Mini (green) since May (month and a half) and am very pleased. I prefer the new navigation wheel to the nav+4 button system in

MS-DOS must die!
