   I don't think anyone has believed an Apple ship date for quite some time
now.  Apple has consistantly missed ship dates on most releases.  My attitude
with Apple is "when it's shipped, it's shipped!  Not until then!".
   In other words, don't loose sleep over the fact that Apple hasn't shipped
something yet!  Just kick back, relax, and wait... wait... wait... then be
happy when you have it!
