iMacs: Limited availability?
Went out looking for a 24" iMac today and none of the major retailers had any stock of them, anywhere in the UK.
Does somebody else want to check availability of the 20" and 24" iMacs? The retailers claimed that the 24"er wasn't EOL ? however, all the branches had sold their display units (which they are usually loathe to do mid-cycle).
Also, and I don't know how accurate this is, but there was mention of a new 27"er...

Did you check Wiggen?
Micro Anvika online has the 17 and 24 inch in stock, 20 inch on pre-order.
That's just two but it seems to be a mixed bag if the online stores inventories are as they say they are.
comet also out of stock
amazon running quite low on stock
but still ready to ship in 24 hours on apple store apart from when u select 750gb hard disk drive, when it goes to 2-3 weeks.
were the MBP's still ready to ship in 24 hrs on june 4th, 24 hours before the new ones came out?

It's a place.

Accurate or not, it is the next logical step. If Apple was to bump the screen sizes, it would not go directly to 30" as most people seem to think but to something like 26-27". If this will happen or not in the next refresh (or overhaul ?) of the line, it depends on display prices alone I think.

Naw. That's "Wigan", isn't it?
more space and extra room to put desktop cpu.
I would bet the new iMac will come out some where between July 17th to the 31st. I bet Steve wants a week or two of more iPhone reviews and news reports, then Apple comes out with the new iMac and Apple get more news reports about Apple products.
They are the masters of strategic releases (both hardware and press), aren't they?
17" 1.83ghz - 1/2 days dispatch w/ limited stock warning
17" 2.0ghz - 24hr normal dispatch
20" 2.16ghz - 1/2 days dispatch
24" - 1/2 days dispatch w/ EOL warning (i think!)
decided to check another major outlet, and:
17" 1.83ghz - limited stock warning
17" 2.0ghz - normal dispatch
20" 2.16ghz - normal dispatch
24" - limited stock warning
this seems like strong evidence that updates are impending within the next few weeks??!
