The Apple Store [1] may still be a good bet, if you're *really* quick.
They do technically say order by the 17th here [2] though. Buying an
iPod on O2 may be possible, but be prepared to pay extra. I've seen over
100 euro markup in some places compared to the Apple Store...
It appears Apple were clever enough to stick a ton of stock in the UK
and are using UPS to ship stuff quickly.
/me goes off to check the UPS site again...
