Fantastic, thanks for the high-quality stuff! I can't wait for CNet's, Engadget's, and Gizmodo's takes when they get theirs. Hopefully I can get mine soon.

one thing that just irked me, was that i just paid $599 for my ipad, and it will not include a pair of earbuds? every ipod that i have ever purchased had earbuds...I have grown accustomed to it
