Apple Hot News seemingly the last to learn of Time Capsule shipments

Earlier today Scott posted that the long-awaited Time Capsules are indeed now starting to ship. However someone ought to go let the folks at Apple's Hot News team know, as this entry in the Apple Hot News feed is somewhat perplexing.

"Time Capsule, the wireless hard drive you can use to back up multiple Mac computers using Time Machine in Mac OS X Leopard, has begun shipping. "Notifications of the shipments began reaching customers that pre-ordered the device early this morning," according to Jim Dalrymple (macworld.com)."

I'm sure that Apple wants to vaunt the arrival of the delayed Time Capsule (I'm very tempted myself, now that they're arriving). However here at TUAW (and we're not alone) we fail to see how leaving this announcement 'according to [much respected Macworld writer] Jim Dalrymple' is in any way beneficial to Apple: if Time Capsule is shipping, why isn't Apple willing to yell it from the rooftop themselves?
