I asked an online Apple representatives, and they told me they could not comment on the BTS promotion. I asked about them if I could receive an iPod and get in on the deal after I purchased a MacBook, but they told me they could not comment.
Braiiins. Braiiins. oops, I mean: Macbooook. Macbooook.
Is it clear I'm trying to be an Apple zombie? If it's unclear: I'm being an Apple zombie. 🙄

That sarcastic 'not' at the end really saved on some confusion there. Good job.
Am I over-analysing, or does "see you next Tuesday" have another, less polite, meaning?

Lol, I know how you feel!! 😛 I'm anxious, too. But the time is coming and all the wait is kind of exciting. It's like when you were little and counted down to Christmas morning in December to open all your presents 🙂 Come on, we can prove that the computer doesn't own us 😉 In just a couple of days we'll be able to pride ourselves in the fact that we waited till the very end 😀
I'm also excited thinking about which colour I'm going to get the iPod Nano in, what I am going to have engraved in it, and which laptop case I'm going to get. I definately have a lot of things going in my head now to keep me entertained!! 😀
C U Next Tuesday yessssss! Haha, It's great kicking the self obsessed! BOOOOM!

Do y'all think in the keynote they will announce B2S or it will just show up on the store site

The Keynote will have an hour long announcement for the back to school sale and 3 days of Steve trying on different turtle necks and modeling for the media..??

I.can't.wait.any.longer.want.to.buy.a.new.mbp....
must.wait.for.free.ipod.and.icloud.....
I wish it is Monday today 😱
I really don't know what to make of all this "news" regarding B2S - what to believe and what to chalk up as wishful thinking being repeated as real information coming from "a source". First, "sources" guessed last week, then this week, and now, but of course, it MUST be next week. It's an ipod! It's an ipad! ...It's iCLOUD!!! (cue superman music)
That said, my thought as of this point (please don't call me a source), is that whether or not there is a discount on icloud to education/students year-round, some inclusion of icloud in the B2S deal could explain the delay compared to prior years. They obviously can't include iCloud in the B2S package if it isn't on the market yet, and the one fact we DO know is that Apple will reveal iCloud next week. If an icloud B2S deal is the case, I hope they still include the ipod, because while I'm undecided on what I'll do with it, at least there's the option of selling it for a few bucks.

iCloud will be free for all IOS users.

Which *next* week is this? 🙄
I'm sure it's coming, but I really was hoping for it to be this week, since I'm hitting my 14-day return window today.

It seems as though it may be announced at WWDC... hopefully. If you plan on trying to benefit from any offers they may have, you will need to act today. I highly doubt they will offer anything if you are outside your 14 day return period.
I just heard from a friend that their university's computer store heard there'd be an Apple announcement the week of the 13th. I'm not holding my breath for anything to turn up next week during WWDC re: B2S.
at this rate of waiting, i probably will never get my hands on my new MBP!
who else is pulling the trigger on Monday, regardless of the B2S announcement? 😎
It will happen after the Keynote on Monday or the usual apple Tuesday, I would bet my life on it.
Don't worry, within five days we will be able to order MacBooks galore woooo 🙂
