I ordered from Apple on the 28th of November with an estimated delivery date of 13th of December. Still no sign of it It shipped on the 8th and it now says "origin airport terminal" whatever that means?

I ordered mine on November 26th and only got it yesterday. So perhaps you'll have it tomorrow. I had delays with mine due to TNT so don't get too worried yet.

Finally received it! Had to call Apple and TNT and it turns out it was sitting in a warehouse since the 13th, TNT had the wrong address! Ah well, all's well that ends well.

I preorderd 2 in Swords yesterday but was told this afternoon they might not be coming in. Tesco Balbriggan got 5 in today - I got 2 there around 6pm and they still had 3 left. Worth a try if you are nearby because they have them behind the Electrical Desk and weren't putting them on the shelf. Tesco Balbriggan is open 24 hours.

I know I should have checked this before purchase but I admit I'm slightly surprised and a bit miffed the iPad Mini doesn't include a pair of earphones.:mad: I see now that no iPad includes a pair. However I'm still surprised (and miffed)!

It's still a handy thing to have and I agree with Pipmae, I think they should have included a pair from the beginning. All the iPhones and iPods have them included. And I know the iPad isn't really a portable device but it doesn't mean you wont listen to music as much. I use my iPad for music more than my iPhone.
