Yes, I had to go to Macmall myself and search for iMac but they seem to be selling iMacs, just not BTOs yet. It does say you can call and talk with a mac specialist if want to further configure them.

the options are there but hidden... I unhid them all last night and posted this screenshot

this "confirms" that 768GB is the only SSD option

I'm very surprised to see this... I work for a Premium reseller in the UK and we have been severely told off by Apple when we have released any marketing material without Apple's approval. I can't see Apple approving someone taking preorders before Apple themselves are.

Where does it say shipping in two weeks? I can only see it saying:

Online Availability:
Call us, Place your order today and be one of the first to receive this product when it arrives!

They have no idea when they are going to get any... Same as the rest of us :(

And I just spoke to someone at macmall and he says they don't have 21" with 16GB and fusion drive in their database yet.

on my end it still says:
"Call us – usually ships within 5 to 7 days"

even for the 27"

(I'm logged into my macmall account if that makes any difference)

OMG I ordered one and got a release date of next week
Seem to me that Macmall jumped the gun a bit, I don't think they now EXACTLY when it's going to be release. They just assume that it will be released in November as Apple stated, and well...next week is not November anymore. Bit of gamble if you aske me ;)

When you select the 27" model the available configurations show up and then immediately vanishes. I am not seeing any kind of GPU upgrade like the previous gen iMacs so I take it that there won't be any kind of GPU upgrade or that MacMall just doesn't know of it yet?

on apple's site they have up "Configurable to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX with 2GB of GDDR5" on the top end model, so macmall must not have all of the BTO options ready yet

According to apple's site the standard gpu in a 27" is a 675 but you can upgrade it to a 680.

Just peep'd Apples site and it seems so. I guess soon MacMall will have it on their site. Too bad we can't get a price check for the full-spec 27" models. The wait is killing us ALL!!!:p

The iMac banner on their homepage has a "just announced" sticker though...

question is, what was on this same spot in the site before few days?
or maybe this is the site default ?
