With Black Friday finally over and the madness it creates beginning to dissipate, stores and online retailers are now taking stock and more importantly, counting the cash.
If Best Buy's online store is anything to go by, Apple's iPad has been the big seller this year, with all of the iPad 2 stock now unavailable to order due to high demand. Best Buy did offer a near $50 off discount on the iPad 2 yesterday.
But it's OK, Best Buy still has plenty of of Galaxy Tabs available for purchase...
Judging by the huge number of people queueing for the iPhone 4S release a couple of weeks ago, it is fairly safe to say that demand for the iPhone that analysts called a "disappointment" is still strong.
Now, one analyst is pointing to dwindling Best Buy stocks as a sign that stock shortages are creeping up on all iPhone vendors, and that demand is outpacing Apple's supply chain.
W. Baird analyst William Power told clients that during research, his company checked with a number of Best Buy stores, and many locations are running out of stock...
Everyone loves a good app sale, and we've seen quite a few of those over the past couple of weeks. But what about an app, music, iBook, and video sale? That's what's going on at Best Buy right now.
9to5Toys, a site dedicated to finding the best deals in electronics, points to a Best Buy sale that ends this weekend. Apparently, the nation-wide retail chain is selling iTunes gift cards at a nice discount...
Apple has another hit on its hands. Earlier today, the Cupertino company announced that it received a staggering 1 million iPhone 4S pre-orders in the first 24 hours.
With shipping dates now 1-2 weeks out, those looking to score an iPhone 4S by Friday are running out of options. But before you set up camp outside of your local Apple store, you may want to give Best Buy a try...
Florida Police are looking for three men that stole $60,000 in iPads from a local Best Buy in 60 seconds. The trio of culprits broke into a Best Buy early in the morning Monday and made away with 60-90 iPads.
That's one way to avoid Apple's online shipping dates. The cast of Oceans 11 would be proud.
Well, that's another rumor quashed. Those paying attention may remember us telling you a couple of days ago how a Best Buy employee had tipped 'This is My Next' that the retailer was expecting a new Apple fixture to arrive in October.
The magic date was October 21st, with a member of store management required to be in-store at some un-godly hour to help facilitate the installation. This led to much excitement, with some believing that the reason behind the new 'point of sale' being the release of a new iPhone.
Unfortunately, it turns out that's not the case, with the real reason being wholly underwhelming. Best Buy is getting an update for its in-store iPad display.
All together now for a resounding 'meh'...
We might just found our first reliable iPhone 5 release date rumor, and October 21 is looking like the magic day to mark on your calendars. The Verge has received a tip from a Best Buy employee that suggests the retailer is set for an 'Apple fixture' installation on the 21st.
What makes this seem so plausible is the continued rumor that October is indeed the timeframe in which we should expect an iPhone 5 to go on sale, with an announcement coming some time in the next few weeks. Does Best Buy know something we dont? It's entirely possible...

We've heard numerous reports, claims, and rumors about the white iPhone 4's inevitable release, but nothing ever panned out. Recently, however, the tide seems to be turning and the rumors are looking a lot more credible.
You no doubt read our report on Best Buy's inventory system, which lists Apple's mythical product as being due in late February. Now another important Apple partner is giving the white iPhone rumors signs of life.
The latest partner to re-list the white iPhone 4 is none other than AT&T. If that doesn't lend credence to the rumor, then nothing will...
Take the following information with a nice dose of salt. We've all heard these rumors before, but MacRumors is reporting that the mythical white iPhone 4 could see a release as early as next month.
Originally scheduled to launch alongside the black iPhone 4 last summer, the white version has hit stumbling block, upon stumbling block, with still no clear-cut reason for the length of the delay.
Apple has reportedly experienced manufacturing issues with the all white iPhone 4, but it looks like those issues may have been ironed out. That's right, Best Buy's computers are showing the white iPhone 4 SKU, with a release date of February 27th, 2011...
New to the iPhone arena? What better way to start out then by scoring a free iPhone 3GS from Best Buy on Friday, December 10th. That's right free, zero, nada, ziltch.
