I meant keep it for good, but if there's a big difference in keyboard letters I can understand it will be a pain. You should be given priority though, so normally it won't take too long.
Got a tip for us?

@Jckan Sorry for hearing that 
Right now I am writing from my new MBP. It's simply a beautiful machine.
Hopefully, don't see any hardware issues and defects that unfortunately some users experienced. Starting to set it up and the first thing I will need to get used to - is the keyboard. The travel distance is very low, but it feels very nice and quick.
Immediately checked the widely spread "wobbly" touchID. Indeed, since it is a button - it's definitely not fixed into place.
The screen is bright and gorgeous and can't wait to take it to work tomorrow. Long night upon me to set everything up as I wish. I am really interested how is the battery life, since I am using it from 1hour
That's my first initial impressions of my new baby
How the time passes by, I will write much more in a comprehensive review.
Until now, hopefully you will all get your new MBP's soon. Be patient - it's really worth it
Thanks for almost month of discussions in this thread, and hope to see you soon in the owners thread!
Cheers!

I agree, it is a beautiful machine.
What I've noticed is that it does not get very hot with an average load (surfing/spotify/office). But even more interesting: if CPU temperature is below 40C - fans switch off! Furthermore, fans do not have a pre-determined "cruise speed" (my previous mac's fan was constantly at 2000rpm).

When I ordered my 15" I had a similar delivery window (29th Dec - 4th Jan) in Switzerland, however my MacBook was shipped earlier on the 19th, Apple listed the 23rd as delivery date but it was delivered yesterday the 21st.
It's the maxed out 15" with the exception of the SSD, which is only 512Gb.

When did you get the 'Shipped' status? Mine was shipped yesterday, but I think it is still in China, waiting at the airport.
Just curious. How long after they took the money from your account did it ship? The cash was taken out today for mine, still showing processing item tho. I passed the order on Dec. 15th with a delivery estimate of the 28th-4th.
I think they charged me on the 13th and it went to preparing for shipment on the 15th
Arse!

Got mine! Ordered 7th Dec. 13" TB 3.1/16GB/512GB USA
It is awesome. Everything is working smoothly. I think I would need to work on it for a week to have an idea about the battery life (I absolutely love this keyboard. It is interesting how polarizing the views are about this).
One thing that is bugging me, the backlit keyboard is not uniformly lighted...is that for everyone?
It is not really a complaint. It does not affect productivity. I can still see the keys. Just wondering.

Well my 15 inch Macbook Pro that was supposed to arrive on the 28th arrived early. Normally this would be a good thing but I did not like the fact that when I got home I saw this package sitting by my doorstep. Something about just leaving an over $3000.00 (Canadian) package insecure with nobody signing for it and outside exposed to the elements (it was about -10 degrees) doesn't impress me.
Who was your carrier ? That is unacceptable IMO ... I'd have been pissed too, even more that these are supposed to be delivered against signature. The delivery guy probably doesn't know the parcel's value, and hasn't been correctly informed.
It was UPS, I was annoyed last night, but now that I am playing with the laptop I am happy
Ordered first week of December, 13" base processor with 16GB ram, 512 HD. Delivered 17th to store. Original date was Dec 29-Jan3
Ordered my new MacBook Pro 15", 2.7ghz, 512GB, Radeon 460. Looking forward to picking it up on the 30th now as they promised me January 16th, but pushed it forward!
Looks like DHL Express and/ or Customs in Amsterdam is closed.

So by and large, are people getting their machines ahead of the estimated ship dates?
I bought a top of the line non-BTO machine at the end of November, and just returned it today for gift cards, and have placed an order for one with the 460 and 1TB upgrades (along with 27" LG display)
Current estimated date is 20th-27th Jan (17th-30th for the monitor), and the wait is going to kill me having sampled (and gotten used to!) the machine already.

Damn it...
