Not everyone in the world uses the US way of formatting, spelling, etc. We here in Asia list the date as DD/MM/YYYY.

( EVEN MORE CONFIRMATIONS NOW )

Uhh....yeah it does if you live outside the US! With exception of Liberia, every other country lists dates on dd/mm/yy basis.
EDIT: Whoops - looks like several others beat me to it....
Just got the email today about my i5. It has left China and is supposed to be at my door 9/13. My wait is almost over, and my wife can have the MacBook back. She is sick of me monopolizing it.
All they said was the quad core's were shipping. They didn't specifically say the i7 was shipping.
I placed my order last week, so my status hasn't yet changed. 
I read a review of the intel i5 at benchmarkreviews.com that actually tested the i5 paired with the same graphics card found in the new iMac and reported having some trouble with it. Here is the link: enchmarkreviews.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=361&Itemid=63&limit=1&limitstart=8
Hopefully that issue has been resolved for the iMac's.

That is the European way of writing the date. Its day then month. So it shipped on Nov. 11.
I ordered my i5 from them. I originally was going to use Mac Connection but the nice saleslady there told me to try ClubMac as they MC charged tax to my state.
If sweetwater (sp?) is of any hint perhaps all these resellers get it this week too. If so I expect mine next week, at a $300 savings from buying off the Apple site!
I called my local Apple Store this morning and asked if the 27" iMac with i5 quad core was in stock yet. They said YES!!!!!!!!
I drove on down there right away, only to be told "they must have misunderstood what you wanted". We don't have them yet. AGGGGHHHH!!!
