All these people were waiting to become among the first to buy the new Mac mini, iPod shuffle or iLife and iWork software. But many left disappointed as the new iPods sold out within minutes..
Lecy Brito said she had been waiting since 7:00 a.m. for the San Francisco Apple Store to open, hoping to buy an iPod Shuffle. "I enjoy music and the smaller thing is right for my kind of work," she said, "and it's easy to hang it from my neck."If you live in the United States then you can buy the 1GB iPod shuffle at Amazon and the 512MB version here. The Mac mini can be bought here for approx. $499.99 at Amazon.
