Convenient timing, I'm planning on giving way too much money to the Apple iBorg shortly, if they get some new products released in time!

I was excited when I saw the "Velocity Store" included, but then realised it's only Apple via the store

Just be prepared to wait 6+ months for the points to post.

Was happy about this with the imminent release of the next iteration of the iPhone, then I read this on the Velocity page:

Hope you're not thinking iPhone. From the Velocity store conditions:

Did not know that as I rarely buy iDevices. Thanks Markis.

Also found it funny that in that list they refer to 'The New iPad' as 'The New iPad3'.

That's annoying, because a new phone is on my shopping list too, but I'm actually hoping there'll be a new iMac out by the end of the promo (the current model is seriously old), and a high spec one of those will add up to quite a few points!

I agree, seems to have been improved significantly, three weeks for my last experience.

3 months for my last one.

And we won't go into the iPad purchase that I had to fight to get credited because there was "no record of the purchase".

I wonder if its PC related?
