Just to let you know I received my video iPod, ordered on the Apple Store.
I must say the display is of really good quality, I tried to load the iPod with an especillay encoded film and it works really fine.
I then plugged it on TV using an Apple RCA cable on tv, this time quality isn't that good yet I'll try and encode in a better resolution (ie 480*480, the maximum). I'll see what's the result, but I think there's a way to get a good one for TV.
As for other functionalitiess I haven't tried them yet, but I think everything looks fine.

One reader from UK (thank you Phil) sent us the following report, confirming that the iPod video is now shipping in Europe
Hello, just to let you know, I ordered an iPod video (60GB, white) on Monday afternoon, and it is listed as shipped as of just after midnight on Wednesday morning. I will let you know when it arrives! I ordered through the Apple store online, as the Apple store in London were saying that expected stock in 1 - 2 weeks.
