Just happens that my brother in law is working for Apple selling the Mac mini so I just bought one few minutes ago.

Sad that they don't have special employee deals on this one, surely because it's too new. The bill come at a total of 702 euros, including the bluetooth/wifi card and the TV adapter, and there I am talking about the second model.
Not bad at all. Thanks also to a strong Euro ! Sure it's not exactly top notch like some Shuttle PC but it's truely fanless and in my sitting room, no way I will install a noisy PC.

Pity that Steve Jobs didn't decided to push more the concept of Mac mini as a media center. Maybe he just wanted to test the market and we surely can expect a more advanced version next year, a bit like the Ipod which is now at the fourth generation.
