AirPods now available! Who's excited?

[James Falconer]

Looks like Apple AirPods are finally for sale! Who's excited? And more importantly, who's getting a pair?

 

[Amanda Drake]

Well I've just ordered a pair

 

[James Falconer]

Cool. What was your eta on shipping?

 

[Amanda Drake]

19th

 

[radklin]

wow its says 4 weeks when I go to it

 

[consequence7]

I know. I wish they would have said when they would be released.

 

[James Falconer]

19th

Good stuff. I suspect orders may ramp up, pushing delivery dates back. Will see.

 

[Amanda Drake]

I hope not

I have a HUGE dilemma. I got my order in early and will have them next week. However, they are selling on eBay and I am sure Craigslist for a lot more than retail value.

My issue... Do I sell mine for a profit and wait until next year to get them, or just keep them. UGH!!!!!

 

[Just_Me_D]

I was excited about them when they were introduced, but I'm not any more. I may reconsider, however, but I'm not in a rush.

 

[Ledsteplin]

Not me. I'm happy with my Bluetooth headphones. Pods don't stay in my ear.

Mine arrive on the 12/21. Hmmm eBay might be a good option to make a quick buck. Haha.

Yeah, they just shot that out of no where. Now it'll be like Jan. 13th!

If you wanted them, keep them

Just ordered mine with 1/12 delivery date.

I ordered a pair as well, with an estimated delivery date of 12/21, but some of those eBay auctions with a pre Christmas delivery date have me flummoxed...

...and here's another one...

So, apparently as a (re)seller, if you can receive them by the middle of next week, and can then guarantee the shipping and receiving of them to the winning bidder of your auction by Christmas Day, the sky's the limit as to what you can try to get for them...
Reminds me of the 5s preorder, with the gold 5s's that had a guaranteed delivery on the launch date on eBay getting some serious coin.

I know possibly James started this because he knows about this:

https://wn.nr/nZGGq8 iMore is giving away 4 pairs

I don't actually like the style, I like more the earbuds, more isolation but I actually never tried this style which is a mixture, would be nice to see how good is the sound quality I always use Sennheisers.

 

[gregtommy]

It's about time. I'd like to try them. I have the Powerbeats 3 and that w1 chip is an amazing piece of technology.

Finally The Crafted beauty is on sale

I had to admit after watching the movie Her, I have wanted one of these. Many times I wish Siri could answer a question, by talking to me, not just showing me something on a screen. This is especially true when I'm using my Apple Watch.
