It's Raining Duals!!!
after waiting for months the apple store in miami finally got them in, so i was there in 15 minutes to pick up the first one purchased in florida from an apple store. Got home and checked my mail and was about to call apple to cancel my online order that was not supposed to ship til oct 14th and it was shipped about same time I walked out of the store. After months of waiting its raining duals...now i am on hold for 30 minutes trying to cancel the order...luckily the apple store will take back the one that is being mailed.

UK Dual G5s
According to the UK Apple Store Dual G5's have an expected ship date of 7-10 days, down from 6-10 weeks!
And a BTO version 9-11 days
Ps. Sorry, been lazy and not read any other posts, so I apologise if this has already been said.

It's Here
Mine finally showed up today....woohoo...
I'm at work so I can't give it a test run, but plan on messing with it a bit tonight...there have been a parade of people in and out of my bay to check it out....pretty cool. Damn thing is big and relatively heavy, but impressive none the less.

another delay?
I am on the phone with Apple as I type. It seems Apple was ready to ship my order, until they ran into some payment issues. I called to resolve those issues, and the person I spoke with assured me that my order would ship shortly after my payment cleared. This rep told me that would have ocurred by this morning, at the latest (referring to the resolution of payment problems, not shipping). As of this afternoon I received no shipping confirmation from Apple; the status of my order is unchaged on the Apple Store. Thus I called Apple, and the first person I spoke with told me my order was pushed back to 106-10/14! I asked this rep how that was possible, since my order was ready to ship pending payment. This person had no answer for me, so I am now holding for a rep in a different department to see if I can effect a change, or at the least receive an explanation instead of hearing a lot of "I don't knows." It's nice to see that Apple bumped me up to priority overnite shipping...
PS - Results of second coversation with Apple on the same phone call...The second person I spoke with said that the batches of G5s ordered around the timeframe of 7/14 (when I placed my order) MIGHT ship by this Monday (9/29). That's the target date, according to this rep. I'd like to believe Apple, but I'm not holding my breath.
