Did you use to own the 2015 rMB? How snappier is it? Also, I am curios to see the thermal output of the m7. Is it getting uncomfortably warm compared to m3 or m5? I used to own 2015 1.2 rMB and just returned it after the refresh.
i didn't have the 2015 long enough to really compare, i purchased the 2015 when the deals were going on and then started seeing what seemed to be more frequent rumors about the new ones and returned it, it feels snappy to me. doesn't seem super warm, i set it up as a new computer, didn't transfer anything over except for what i had in iCloud
Sold my rMBP, would have gone ahead and ordered rMB already but PayPal is being a massive-- well, you know, and decided to hold my fund until after I've dispatched the item and I've received a positive feedback (absolutely ridiculous, I've used eBay for years, I have over 100 feedback with 100% score, after this I won't be using eBay again).
I'll have to make do with my slow mini-PC and iPad until I get my hands on that rMB.
Also gonna order Apple Multiport AV adapter, I know there are cheaper options but just about every hub I've seen has issues powering an external drive without having power connected, I can return the adapter if I find something better anyway.

A shame Apple don't provide express shipping to more countries! I would happily pay extra to save a few days, but are not given the option...
Have a look at your UPS tracking.. It's already expedited..
But it does look like that service level is actually slower than the economy service!

I asked for items to be merged and so not getting any UPS tracking details.
JinJin - When did you order yours?
Pretty much as soon as the website started working again last Tuesday (order confirmation says 16.46)
So I've been waiting for announcement and checking daily for about 6 months now and then stopped for a week and also didn't read any blogs/websites etc...Only managed to order on Saturday 24th when i heard about the updated Macbook!!
And we have the bank holiday next Monday too so hopefully you get your before then
I got my shipping notice this morning. My new m7/256 will be here (Glendale, Arizona, USA) on Friday. Sweet! I ordered it just this past Saturday.
As I have said before, I ordered it (m7/256ssd) last Tuesday. I included accesories and I chose the option to merge all articles in the same package. If today the status has change to "shipped", when do you expect I will receive it (Spain)?
I'm in a similar boat. Tracking says "Shipment dispatched". Its most likely on a pallet over from China but we have no way of tracking it properly.
Finally out for delivery today here in London. Annoyed about the time slot though
Nice one JinJin - You were one of the first to order.
Pretty much ordered as soon as the site started functioning. Apple could have used a better shipping service. Mine lost days sitting around in China and then Germany

Would be nice to correlate that with apple tracking info i.e. Preparing for dispatch, Shipment in transit and on time, Shipment Dispatched etc etc
