Apple has started shipping its second-generation Apple TV to pre-order customers. According to a comment made by iLounge reader Chuck, it appears the units are shipping directly from China instead of from a U.S.-based warehouse, with the delivery promised on September 28 or later—in-line with Apple’s previously announced intention to ship the device this month. Apple’s online store still lists a 2-3 week wait for new orders; there has been no indication of when the second-generation Apple TV might be available for purchase in Apple’s retail stores.
