While I was pondering whether the introduction of Remote Desktop 3 was
worthy of shutting down the Apple Store this morning, C.K. pointed out that Apple also updated their Special Deals
section. A lot. I can't remember the last time I've had to scroll this much on a page in the Apple Store. It looks like
they have refurbished items from almost every one of their products except the MacBook Pro, but they're
highlighting the iPod mini with their Special Deals graphic (pictured) almost as if to say "go on iPod mini.
'Git!"I'd try linking Apple's Special Deals section, but I know that always gets wonky. Plus, the tips I've found like Ars Technica's don't cover linking a section, so all you get is a link to the Apple Store. You're on your own for the rest of the way.

I looked a few days ago and they were pushing the ipod mini out already, every product was listed including the MBP 2.16 model. I thought that pretty crazy. I don't know if anyone else saw this... just thought i would chime in.

I've always enjoyed the Special Deals section -- I buy nearly all of my Apple gear there. It's refurbished, but everything comes with the regular one-year warranty. HOT!

The iPod minis have been advertised there since a while back. But yeah, the refurbished Apple products are great. In the past we got a refurbished PowerBook, and just now a refurbished MacBook Pro. No whining, no problems whatsoever! And cheaper, too!

I looked at this section of the Canadaian store, and most of the products are not available.
I looked at the Special Deals on the US Store about 2 months ago, and all those ipod mini's were there also.
If they have trouble selling them in the US could they make them available to other countries?

No Intel Mac minis... :(
Or, were they there earlier and they are just gone?
