Shoot I’m already at second week May! ****.

my Apple leather keychain in Baltic blue or w/e still got April 30th :(
 
Ordered 4x AirTags, the balking holder in blue, and the apple leather fob in blue. Delivery for 20th with engraving, noice!
 
When is the iPad Pro getting pre order released? shouldn't it have been 15 mins ago?
 
Given they are from Europe it's way past 8am here, it's 11am CEST right now so when the store is back up it'll be 2pm CEST.

The whole world isn't on USA time.

the whole world, much like the us, was aware of this product announcement on tuesday, with its launch today, and the whole world, much like the us, is transparently aware the apple store goes down shortly before pre orders go live.

when one has 3 days notice for such a thing, they can plan accordingly.

the whole world isn’t so irresponsible as the OP, nor so apologetic for their irresponsibility as you.

I'm not saying the OP of the comment is right or wrong, just pointing out that not everyone is on USA time so your point about it only being 5 hours from 3am isn't valid when the OP is several hours ahead.

While I could order today I’ll wait and just place it along with the iPad Pro, Apple TV and iMac next week.
if that ends up being a poor decision because of lack of inventory, then at least I’ll have an extra week of reviews and crap base my purchasing decision on.
 
Smack your head all you want (why are you hitting yourself?). You think Apple is going to launch at a time that is inconvenient for their California engineering staff in case their website goes offline or some error occurs?
It's 2021, a simple webshop update should happen automatically by giving a single command while the whole engineering staff is snipping margaritas poolside.

Anyone still complaining about the store going down doesn’t understand hype machines. It’s okay, go rest your smooth brains and let those with the marketing knowhow run the Apple online store ;)
 
I was about to say - being in the West Coast, is it even worth it to wake up at 5 AM for the AirTags? I wonder how quickly delivery dates get pushed out.

EDIT: LOL, how cute I got downvoted for a serious question. I honestly wonder how demand for AirTags is, and if its even worth it to wake up early for it. Sorry if I don't normally wake up at 5 AM.
So I got my answer - nope. Didn’t have to wake up early. They’re still available for April 30 delivery. Guess I can take down my regular preorder and take my time figuring out which etched ones I want.
 
Ordering 2 AirTags and that is it! I have a bad habit of losing my wallet during travels - I have already lost 2 wallets in my last 2 flights!

The other AirTag will be on my luggage for when I do start traveling again. I don't think my backpack needs one as I don't lose it, if ever.

Hype!!
Keep your wallet in your backpack and put that $30 towards your high school education?

So, I did purchase 2 AirTags, but my plans have changed. Instead of buying one for my luggage and the other for my wallet, I have opted for buying one for my keys and the other for my wallet.

I don't travel all that often and I will be using my keys more often than my luggage, so I think this is a better solution for my needs.

Still hyped though....

Like the back of the mew iMac? I wish the entire iMac was that color.
I think there might be a usability reason for this too. For example, when working with colors it’s better to be in a neutral as possible immediate surroundings.
I think the exaggerated version of it would be like the Light/Dark theme battle but with full bright colors (as great as they do seem to look).
 
And at the same time on all 4 Apple TV 4ks the recent purchases under family sharing don’t work nor do any icons previews for movies load roll eyes streaming from my phone for now I guess
