Demand for Apple's new Polishing Cloth — a $19 USD piece of white fabric — sales are through the roof, with delivery estimates for orders placed today pushed out to late November.
Quietly offered to the online Apple Store on Monday following Apple's Unleashed hardware event, the creatively named Polishing Cloth is a simple square of fabric with an Apple logo that sells for $19.
While the product initially showed near-immediate availability, orders placed today are currently expected to arrive between Nov. 18 and Nov. 24.
For the tragically unaware, Apple describes its latest creation as a poet would a spring day: "Made with soft, non-abrasive material, the Polishing Cloth cleans any Apple display, including nano-texture glass, safely and effectively."
And lest you fear that the cloth isn't suitable for your fancy new iPhone 13, Apple is here to hinder you of that terrifying notion. According to a compatibility list, the brand-new polishing cloth works on all varieties of Apple products.
Oh yeah, and you'd better believe in-store pickup is also unavailable as of the time of this article being written.
