I actually got one of the 6 GB minis on Monday (silver). My first iPod ever!
So far I'm digging i immensely. I actually had placed an order online, but my inclusion of a Firewire cable had pushed the ship date way back. So, I removed the cable and wandered over to the Cambridge, MA Apple Store to buy the cable (and an AC adapter for kicks and giggles). Low and behold, there's a pile of iPods behind the counter! New minis, new photos, even a bunch of shuffles. I promptly unleashed the plastic and snagged one for myself. While I was waiting for the sales dude to ring me up, I saw 5 people buy shuffles and 2 buy photos. Consumerism at it's finest .
I walked outside and called the Apple Online Store to kill the original order. When the guy asked (very tactfully) why I was canceling I told him it was because the brick and mortar Apple Stores apparently had all their inventory.
