Apple shipping rocks - volcs0 - 09-16-2006

I know, it has been said before.

I ordered the $99 black Nano Thursday afternoon. Yesterday, I got the shipping email - and when I checked, it said, Shipped 9/15, arrival 9/19.

FedEx just dropped it off.

Nice job, Apple.

Oh, OK. It sounded like they ripped you off by keeping your purchase, and sending a small brick in the box instead.

I read your topic and clicked to see why Apple would be putting pebbles in their shipments. Big Grin

Glad you got your nano.

Edit: I'm glad I'm not the only one who misunderstood. Looks like RacerX and I were on the same wavelength. Now that is something to worry about.

LOL. I hadn't even thought of that.

Reminds me of a line by Willow when reading the grafitti at a high school.

"Kiss rocks. Why would anybody want to do that?"

I thought the same thing. What color rock did you get?

And here I thought it was a salute to PopRocks!

Amazing what a missing 's can do to a sentence. Smile

I too wondered whether a handful of pea gravel came with every purchase now.

I thought Apple was going to sell Apple Branded Pet Rocks... It's all the rage!!!
