Airport order delayed from Apple Store: New Airport?
This is probably a coincidence, but last week I ordered an Airport adaptor for a G3 iMac. (They are $20 and required for putting the airport cards in old iMacs.) I also ordered some blank DVDs.
The blank DVDs arrived in time, but today I got an e-mail from Apple that said my Airport adaptors were delayed several days, and that I could cancel my order.
I know that they've done this right before new products were introduced.
Again, this is probably a coincidence, and they probably just have a genuine parts delay. But there has been some discussion of new Airport, and this just seemed like it could be a clue. I'm not even sure if they'd need a new G3 iMac adaptor for a new Airport.
So take it for what it's worth.

Usually delays will also be posted at the apple store. like the crt imacs and ipod currently are.
