Nope, quite pissed off. Digicape had it on pre-order all the time and then one day opened it for sale. I went ahead and paid it, when the automated reply indicated 5-10 days. Its now exactly a month. Nothing.

Tell me about it. Chatted to a MyiStore consultant, who seemed to suggest they've never actually had them in stock?? Emailed them and Digicape, both came back with no ETA, and no waiting lists... It's farcical.

At this point, I'm tempted to start hitting up family/friends/strangers who are going overseas, to bring one back for me... Might just put up a Please Help on Carbonite.

It's available to walk in and buy in every Apple Store in the UK and for next day delivery if bought online, there is no shortage according to Apple staff I asked when I was in an Apple Store yesterday.

Wow. As I said, beyond farcical by Core this side.

Yeah, specially seeing as it's only $169 new which equates to around R2670.

That guy is taking people for a ride.

The slip in the other photo suggests that is what was paid. But who knows.

Reliable shipping with insurance and customs aren't exactly cheap.

The Apple Pencil is now available for on-line purchase. I ordered mine on Tuesday and it arrived today (Thursday)
