i personally believe that if they were going to release a 17" display they would have done it at the same time as the release of the mac mini as that is where the 17" display would be picking up sales.

You have apoint with that , but thinking about it if they released the 17" display at Macworld with the Mini and priced it at say £300 (around $570) then people would not have gone for it Mac Mini + 17" display = £639 $1200 ish and then we would all have said how expensive that was !!

i think apple is slicker then that - sell out on Mac Mini THEN release a 17" widescreen ( remember once you have taken a bite of the apple it is hard to go back to anything else !)

used to be tuesday, it has changed, updates, product releases, actually the last x-Books were released on wednesday ... now that you ask, I'm 95% sure but can't confirm since when.

OK, I've been looking around and it seems to be that I'm wrong, the wednesday product was the PM last year (According to MR buyer's guide), iPods on monday, actually it says that LCD's updates were made on 04.01.05 :confused: ... doesn't matter at all if they ship them soon.
