Just as a process of elimination of drives, I wanted to ask what the earliest ship date anyone has for the 7200rpm drive on their MBP so we can accurately predict the likely shipping dates. I have July 24th, but I am sure many people have earlier.

Earliest dates so far:
July: 3, 18, 20, 23
 
My shipping date is the 3rd July - I ordered the afternoon they were announced

If you click on "Cancel my order" does it take you to the next screen where you can cancel? Or does it give you a message that your order cannot be cancelled online, and you' have to call to cancel it?
 
The Wait continues............

Through fear of actually cancelling the order, I have not clicked on "Cancel My Order" I would be very miffed after waiting all this time, to then cancel my order by accident! I think I must be one of the early orders for MBP W/ 7200rpm so when it arrives (hopefully early) then I'll let you know

Estimated Shipping: 03 Jul, 2007
Estimated Delivery: 10 Jul, 2007

Trust me, I've clicked on "Cancel my Order" MANY times, you get another screen where you have to confirm it if you really want to cancel it.
 
Oooo the excitement, I checked my bank account today the fact the didn't take the money out upset me, thats a first lol.

But this is good news. Im like a kid waiting for christmas here.

That's the first time you're unhappy that money isn't being taken out, huh!?!

;)

When did you order??
 
From the dates it seems that they got a small batch and will have to wait for another 2 weeks before the next shipment comes which should be a lot larger.
 
omg, those waiting times are so long, the little more speed you get on the drive is already gone, you gotta work a lot of miliseconds to get that month and a half back lol :p
