Demand is very strong for the little iPod... no massive news... hopefully Apple can release a thiner normal sized iPod and curb some of that demand... yes, the problem is with 1.8 inch (?) drive maker, not so much Apple... the only thing unusal here is that Apple is ADVERTISING the iPod... which happens to create "demand"... I wonder what would happen if Apple advertised the Macs? wow... that would be interesting indeed! Just a heads up... the same thing is going to happen with the 30" displays... even the 30" Poster is going for upwards of $250 on ebay, just think what an actual display will go for once they begin shipping!
Apple has always had supply problems... it tends to be on the cutting edge, thus the cutting edge of production. DeLL doesn't have to worry about parts since they don't do anything new... so you can blame Apple all you want, the problem is "innovation coupled with advertising"... not some solveable problem Apple can wave a magic wand over... get real...
