Yes, it’s very annoying! I’m also in the UK and constantly checking for stock, but nothing in the 12 stores closest to me either.
 
i ordered a white one on the german apple online store on the 16th november and it says me january 6-14
 
I'm still trying to think if I should try and it my original home pod fix and I finally know when I order the original one it was back in July 30, 2018- so far my mini is doing great
 
Pleasantly surprised that I just got an email from Gravis, which indicate that my Homepod Minis will ship soon, so although they said stock wouldn't arrive before end of January, they seem to have some in stock now. Which makes sense since Apple has 5-6 weeks delivery and I ordered on november 6. So I can't wait to listen and see how good they are since I'm quite happy with my Sonos One speaker.
 
Just ordered a pair from Curry's no pick up available so delivery in 5 days i cam live with that. Earliest from Apple is February
 
Has anyone here with an order due to arrive from  between Dec 30-Jan 8 received a shipping notification yet ?
 
Just FYI if you have a local Apple Store some offer courier delivery within 2 hours. I have been checking the Apple app every morning and today the Mini was finally available locally so I ordered two of them and 48 minutes later I had them in hand...very excited!

I did but they don't have them in any stores close to me .
 
Just received my pair from Curry's a day late because of the holidays so understandable.

First impressions very good. good sound and good stereo separation,

Bit disappointed with the volume my original Homepod is perfect for me at 40% to get same results with the minis they have to go up to about 55%

But they will be ok my original Homepod is now in the bedroom so all rooms covered now.
 
got my two blu mini's perfect for my kitchen table and small tv.. They are no larger Hommepod but linked in stero they sound pretty good for a small space
 
I got my two new blue Minis this morning for a stereo pair on my desk, replacing a single original HomePod. I missed having stereo sound but two HomePods would have been overkill for here.

Not sure about the white tops though - they kind of stand out in a "not good" way.
 
I’m planning to get the grey one for that reason. Shame that shipping times are now at half February….
 
I ordered my yellow HomePod within minutes of them becoming available in Europe. I’m glad I did as 24 hours later, shipping times had slipped to January
