How long before 2011 Airs appear on Amazon?

[sashadouglas]

I got a gift of a 2010 Air, but then was advised to return it to Amazon, since the 2011 models were imminent. Since it's an account credit, I can't take the cash and buy from Apple. Do anyone know when Amazon should carry the 2011 Airs?

Thanks!

Based on past experiences, tomorrow is likely but certainly within a day or two.

MacMall says they will have them tomorrow, so Amazon should as well.

They're up now:

11.6, 2gb, 64gb for 994.00

11.6, 4gb, 128gb for 1194.00

13.3, 4gb, 128gb for 1294

13.3 4gb, 256gb for 1594

Hope that helps!

Bob Coxner posted a handy analysis on another thread for peeps ordering there:

Bottom line, If someone lives in CA and wants a stock 11" upper model:

APPLE (No Discount) - - $1199 + 105 CA Tax + $8 CA eWaste + $10 2-3 day delivery = $1322

EDU - $1149 + $101 CA Tax + $8 CA eWaste fee + $10 2-3 day dleivery = $1268 ... then you get a bonus of $100 in software, but that's far from "money in pocket" for most that didn't plan to buy $100 in pocket.

BUSINESS - $1127 + 96 CA Tax + $8 CA eWaste + $10 2-3 day delivery = $1243

AMAZON - $1195 + $0 Tax + $0 CA eWaste + $0 2 day shipping = $1195

I was about to order on amazon but noticed it's just for preorder.

Ouch, only 1% off? When are they going to be on Amazon.co.uk?

 

[Apple Expert]

In stock now. Buy now before they are gone.

 

[munchies]

I think some are already low stock.

Does anyone know when they will appear on the UK Amazon?

Also, why the low % reductions of late? I saved £100 when I bought a mbp year or so ago. Will it be similar for the MBA?

 

[Apple Expert]

Look at the price history of the 2010 MBA. It saw it's first drop about 2.5 weeks after released which was about $20. It didn't get till a $100 till then end of it's life cycle. Im sure it will drop more and more. But how much know one knows.

Why are 3 people "Banned" that commented on this thread? Seems like a bit of excessive moderation going on around here these days.

It seems two of the posters were complementing each other so probably the same user?
