For those that got 1-3 day shipping times for the 12"...
You got excited for nothing.
I just received this email from Apple:
To Our Valued Apple Customer:
Thank you for your order for the new 12" notebook! As mentioned in the
MacWorld keynote earlier today, and as our press release stated, the new and
exciting 12" PowerBook is scheduled to ship later this month. Unfortunately,
the first few orders we received picked up the incorrect availability
information and we wanted to quickly update you on the actual lead time of 2-4
weeks. We apologize for any confusion this messaging might have caused.
Please rest assured that we are looking forward to getting the new 12"
PowerBook in your hands as soon as possible. Also, you were one of the first
to order, and this update will not affect your place in line for shipping the
new PowerBook.
If you should have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to contact us.
If this corrected lead time is not satisfactory, please contact us so we can
suggest a product that may be available sooner, or we will honor your request
to cancel your order at any time prior to shipment.
Thank you for shopping at the Apple Store!
Damn!

Look murbot has a custom title at the Apple Store. Well if not you then who?
Say murbot, when configuring my BabyAlBook I saw that Apple wants $150 for a 512MB 266 DDR SO-DIMM. Is it just me, or does this seem halfway reasonable?
It's usually a lot higher than that, and I'd like for once to just get the thing loaded up right out of the box.
It took me a month or so to get my iBook 500 when I ordered just after the keynote. I expect the same will be true here. Although I ordered without the superdrive so maybe one of the first to ship?
Can only hope.
<strong>I haven't even checked pricing on these new RAM chips anywhere, or if they're even readily available...
</strong><hr></blockquote>
Kingston wants US$191 for it. I know Kingston isn't cheap, but I always thought Apple prided itself in having the worst RAM prices in the known world.
Anyone else get a call?
I'll post when I get it.
I can't belive what you have been doing on that! Whoa, don't worry, the new PowerBook WILL arrive at yours soon - more patince the more better. Calm down.
