When I went to my local Apple Store, they didn't have any 49e's in stock. I called back the next day and they had the M-Audio Radium-49 in stock (it's $150). I got that instead and have been happy with it so far.

Hang in there.

The had delays even then. Apple shipped iLife and the keyboard as separate shipments and even though I chose the free 5 day shipping Apple upgraded me to second day air. The shipping costs are something to consider when getting the keyboard elsewhere. <br /> <br /> At the time I had no other options for the keystation 49E. No one else had them for sale....not even M-Audio. The keyboard is great for GarageBand but it really shines in Reason 2.5, since the keyboard itself allows you to remap the buttons and sliders to any midi control channel you can do some pretty cool things in programs that support them...like reason. For a real retro meets the new age use it with Arturia Moog Modular!<br />
