iPod touch Safe to order?

[caMi]

Is it now safe to order and expect a good week 38?

I just returned my week 37 iPods to the Apple store and they gave me an Apple Gift Card. (They wanted to charge me 10% at first. I told him I am not paying 10% for a defective product so his manager agreed to give me the full amount back on a gift card. That was fine with me since I want to order another.)

Just want to make sure if I order now I will not get another dud.

It sounds like Apple is shipping the week 38 models now. There have also been reports of people picking week 38s up at Apple stores. So you could just go back soon and ask if they have any.
