There have been some complaints about the displays on them.  It seems  
that Apple delayed shipping the 27" models for a bit (website said  
they would ship 3 weeks after order), possibly to give them a chance  
to reengineer them to fix the problem(s).  Gizmodo is reporting that  
they seem to have resumed shipping on them. The site now says 24 hours  
for 21.5" models, 2 weeks for 27" models.
