While everyone’s abuzz about the new MacBook Air (or not), it appears that while individual orders are coming in to eagerly awaiting customers, those hoping to procure one in one of them brick n’ mortar stores just might be out of luck.
Says our sister publication, Computerworld:Several calls to Apple retail stores in New York, Oregon and elsewhere, however, failed to turn up a MacBook Air. “We haven’t gotten our filthy little hands on them yet,” said a sales representative at the store on West 14th St. in Manhattan. When told that Apple had announced the Air’s availability, however, he added: “That’s good news. It means we’ll have them in in two days.”
We’ll keep you updated to this most grave situation as details trickle in.
MacBook Airs have not yet arrived here in Toronto, but the Apple Specialist did say that she expects them to arrive some time in February.
