As I’m sure most of you will know, the iPod touch is now freely available in most Apple Stores in both the United States and the United Kingdom. However many who pre-ordered via Apple’s website a couple of weeks back haven’t had theirs shipped yet – including me.
I ordered my 16GB iPod touch the day after it was announced, and still have an estimated shipment date of the 28th September, with delivery on the 2nd of October. The fact this hasn’t been brought forward has got under my skin over the past few days, and I’m rather frustrated.
I believe Apple should have started shipping the iPod touch to those who pre-ordered online either before, or alongside those who can now walk into an Apple store and pick one up on impulse.
Don’t undervalue your big spending and loyal customers Apple, we’re stuck here sitting and waiting for our product because why? Because we were loyal and ordered as soon as we could – via the online Apple Store.
