iPod Shuffle slated for early November arrival

iPod shuffle

Just a couple of days ago, I was wondering if I was ever going to get my iPod Shuffle, which is supposed to ship sometime in October. Turns out Apple was ever so slightly delayed in getting the tiny LCD-less wearable out to the masses--most Shuffle jones-ers will get their fix the first week of November. I preordered mine and got a notice that my Shuffle would arrive by the end of the week. It seems others will get theirs even sooner, and some stores will have them in stock in the next few days. By the way, the San Francisco Apple Store still doesn't know when it will get a shipment. Watch for our review of the second-gen Shuffle.

Just received an e-mail confirmation from Apple Canada Inc that my wife's iPod Shuffle 2G was shipped on Oct. 27 2006. A second e-mail was a copy of my paid invoice. I expect that it will, technically, arrive in November.

I hope this was an interesting post. I can't see the black letters on the black background. I shouldn't have to do anything extra like highlighting text just so I can read it.
