Apple's new, flash memory based media player, the iPod Shuffle, has had such an impressive demand rate that those looking to purchase it are facing a potential 4 week waiting period.
The delay is similar to the ones experienced by the normal iPod and the iPod Mini. According to Reuters,
"There is a two- to three-week wait for the $99 iPod Shuffle, which holds about 120 songs, while customers face a wait of three to four weeks for the $149 model, which has double the capacity, according to the Apple Web site.
Apple's co-founder and chief executive, Steve Jobs, said last week at the company's annual trade show that the new music players were on their way from factories to Apple's online store, its retail stores and third-party retailers and distributors."
Sales from different iPod models accounted for 35% of Apple's revenue.
