It's a long long way from Cupertino to the Sydney, Australia neigborhood of Rushcutters Bay -- and yet perhaps the Down Under retailer Frequency (seller of Macs and more) has gotten some information that the rest of us haven't heard yet. Frequency's "Leopard Launch Party" page says

Due to an Apple embargo, we are unable to sell Leopard until 7pm EST Saturday 20th October, the official worldwide Leopard launch.

A product launch on a Saturday night? Not exactly characteristic Apple, but after the 24-hour party people crazed atmosphere of the Friday evening iPhone launch, it's possible that the retail stores will be rigged for a lively Saturday night party. Leopard-print outfits? Smash your old Survivor "Eye of the Tiger" LPs? I'm sure something fun will be in store.

Thanks Patrick! [via digg]
