Looks like there are some lucky customers out there. According to some Twitpics found on Twitter, it looks like at least one person out in the wild has managed to get their hands on the Camera Kit accessory from Apple. And of course, as any normal person would do, the person in question took several photos of the unboxing event.

Jerrod H is the person in question, and he thankfully took pictures to show off his prize. The big question is, how’d it happen? While the accessory has been listed on Apple as “Buy Now” for quite some time, it’s always said “Shipped in x amount of weeks.” In fact, despite this news, (and the fact that our own forum is corroborating the evidence), Apple’s website says that the Camera Kit isn’t shipping for another 2-3 weeks.

So, did Apple manage to get enough stock in to fill “early” orders? Or, did they reign in just enough to get a few orders placed, before their warehouses were depleted again? Only Apple knows the answer, but if the desire for that USB port is anywhere near as high for the iPad, then we can imagine where all the stock is going.
