Comments on: Will the iBook be Refreshed Soon? http://www.kposey.com/32/will-the-ibook-be-refreshed-soon The Rantings of an Over-Caffeinated Web Developer Wed, 19 Nov 2008 17:39:54 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5.1.3 by: dan http://www.kposey.com/32/will-the-ibook-be-refreshed-soon#comment-18 Fri, 22 Jul 2005 23:22:04 +0000 http://www.kposey.com/32/will-the-ibook-be-refreshed-soon#comment-18 Thanks for the feedback... I called Apple, and they informed me that, provided the iBook doesn't ship beforehand, if there is a refresh they will e-mail me and give me the option to take the refresh at the same price. Since my estimated ship date is "on or before 8/04/05," and the rumor is that they'll be updated this Tuesday, I'll take the chance that it won't be shipped in the next two (business) days. The iPod 4 gig was not discontinued when they were refreshed, they just went down in price and added the 6 GB model, so that is probably why they discounted your order and didn't upgrade. Thanks again for your input!

Instead of upgrading my order, they just discounted my existing order. I ended up paying $179 for the a 4gig Pink iPod mini (birthday present for my wife). Anything could happen, but I doubt your order would be upgraded to the new machine... Back when I ordered an iPod mini, they did a refresh on those iPods.

Or, more specifically, someone who ordered it a day before reading about all these refresh rumors :-o So, with the estimated ship time increased, does that mean anyone who orders an iBook now will get a new machine?
