I was just recently shipped, but my reference number was not the usual M9282LL/A. Anybody know why? i hope they haven't started shipping refurbished units or anything crazy like that...

Yeah I was also wondering why, hope they aren't engraved again.. that would not be cool.

Refurbished? Haha that would throw their reputation out the door, of course they're not refurbished!

speaking of refurbished ipods, I was wondering if they're all brand new or not, so I was reading the TOS & saw "(e) Products listed on our websites may be new or refurbished, but will not be used. Refurbished items will come with complete warranties." ?

not really.

apple's refurbs with respect to the ipods have an excellent reputation, to the point that you couldn't even tell the difference between a refurb and a new ipod unless specifically told.

I don't think I know the difference between refurbished and new.

Refurbished stuff is usually just as good as new. Just a plain box, instead of a colorful one.

My iPod and my Mom's both shipped today! Whoo-Hoo
