Apple : IPod mini delayed - macmusicFew days ago we were proud to announce the release of the iPod mini in Europe on July 24th. Unfortunately Apple announces that because of a tremendous amount of pre-orders, its portable audio player will only be available with a 4-week delay. This strange Apple business strategy is growing more and more frequent and annoying for the image of Apple Inc. Once more, Apple can't ship its new products on the scheduled timetable.

Beware Apple !! The iPod clients aren't Mac clients, they are much less faithful and lose patience much faster. What a shame, it is precisely these same new clients that Apple had to appeal to !!
