Extreme Shipments

Although AirPort Extreme units were supposed to ship this next week, according to original estimates, it seems more likely now that they are 1 to 3 weeks away. The 12-inch PowerBook was delayed, too, reports indicate. It's possible that a new release of Mac OS X 10.2 is being finalized to push through a dot update that will handle the requirement of the new hardware and software, and that until that's ready Apple may be reticent to put equipment or products in people's hands. It should become clear soon enough. I hope to have my hands on some Extreme equipment as soon as the week following this one.

Comments

I recieved notice from Apple today that my upper model AirPort Extreme base station shipped today (Tuesday, 01/28/03). Looks like the base stations got out the door a little earlier than expected.

I just received a shipment confirmation this morning that my 12" PB has shipped. It's a build-to order with max mem (640MB), max HD (60GB) and Airport Extreme card. All indications are that the card is included. I've also read reports that others have received the cards. No word on base stations, however.

P.S. Nice blog.
