You left out the most important items: two, gorgeous, white, Apple logo stickers! :D The rest of that list is just something extra they package. ;)

hey when did you order yours?? I ordered on the 18th of this month and it still hasn't shipped off. It's said preparing for shipment for 2 days now. I didn't think it would stay on there that long. I HATE fedex. They are so slow. My husband sat at home today waiting for our Ipods and they NEVER came. Ugh!

Ordered it yesterday, 22nd August. The reseller is out of stock at the moment though, as are most UK resellers. So I'm just waiting for Apple to get their act together and Stock all their loyal resellers!

EDIT: Stock in - arriving tomorrow:)

Also the nifty "paperoid" bag the iBook comes in, and the cardboard that covers the gear. Apple is known for quality packaging. It's all a blur to me as I've opened well over 1,000 of them in the last 2 years, so the packaging to me is invisible. I can rip through an iBook box in less than ten seconds, separating the components into piles. Check out my destroyed summer.
Want to see good packaging? Buy an iSight. Maybe a Mini too.

UGH! Mine didn't come with ANY stickers!!!!
You're kidding me, right?! That sucks! I could have sworn that most Apple boxed products came w/ the stickers... and at least the computers! :eek:

My ipod came with the stickers, and so did my ibook. So I have an extra pair. If anyone wants one I can mail it to you, no problem. I can imagine how disappointing it must be to not have received the stickers! :)

Hmm... all this talk about stickers makes me wonder where on earth I put the ones that came with my PB? I don't believe that I got any stickers with my iPod....Grrr.

That looks great on a tinted window. Mine aren't tinted so it doesn't stand out as much, not to mention I have a white car. LOL.
