yeah, I seen those in the more high-tech/volume malls. They also have machines to actually sign up for CINGULAR and get Razrs, Bluetooths, ETC. So basically, you can start up a cell phone contract through a machine Oo.

i would guess that the machines are treated like mini apple stores and the same warranties apply.

I've noticed that thing everytime I've gone to the mall since the middle of last year. I didn't realize it was a vending machine though, I just thought it was merchandise behind a glass case.
