New AirPort Extreme Base Station??

Andrew_ILT · Jan 27th, 2007, 01:27 PM

Did any one order the new AirPort Extreme Base Station? If you order the station, can u let us know when are u expecting to receive the station?

I wanted to order it online, but prefer walk in to Apple Store with cash and can go home play with new toy right away.

I'm really looking forward about this new airport extreme base station. What do u guys think

I ordered mine about a week ago. Estimated ship date is Feb. 28th, with arrival of March 12th (no expedited shipping). I'm betting that the Feb. 28th shipping date is conservative, just in case something happens.

Wow...we have to wait till Feb 28???

Why not early Feb?

I can't wait to put my hand on one of those new AirPort Base Station!

New base station will not help me at all. I have a G4 iBook, and there is no Wi-Fi N card in that sucker.

Cheers!

Do they not have stock in the Apple Mall Stores yet?

Why would you wait to see when it would arrive to the store, when you can order online, get it when it's first available, and save yourself the cost and time of having to travel all the way to the storefront?

They don't have any stock in the stores yet, because the first 100,000 off the production line were pre-sold to people like me, who want it first. You obviously didn't want it bad enough, and will have to wait.

I was simply asking. You're attitude, which by the way you are incorrect, was not needed. I already have mine.......I was simply asking if it was in store yet.

I'm headed to NYC and have ordered one for a client there. Estimated ship for the base station in the US is Feb. 22. I placed the order at the beginning of February.
