This is the same configuration I ordered on March 9. My ship date is still showing as April 20, though I confess I keep hoping it will be moved up a little.
 
My order (realized on March 3, from Spain):

· 2.93GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
· 4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB
· ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB
· 640GB Serial ATA Drive
· Apple Mighty Mouse
· Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad (Spanish) and User's Guide

Ships: Apr 14
Delivers: Apr 17


I hope that it won't be delayed more weeks...
 
Even if they are a couple of weeks late, depending on where you get it from you can usually get them to throw in some free stuff. My gf got a free laptop bag with her MBPro worth $100+ last year after it was 3 days late. If my iMac is 3-4 weeks late like many of you are suggesting I think I'll be asking for a free cinema display lol!!
 
Ordered: 7th March (?? or somewhere within a day or 3 of there)
Original Delivery date: 7 April
New delivery date: 31 March
Destination: Australia

I'm not sure how firm this new delivery date for me is as I can't check the order status myself. I purchased mine through a university reseller who is tracking my order. I rang up yesterday and told me the new delivery date although I'm not sure if it's delivery or shipping but the guy said "delivery date".

I'm hoping it's the delivery date because that means I'll have it next week!!

Unless the guy is a compelte moron and got March and April/May mixed up.
you're getting an ATI 4850 imac in 4 days? what?

I think you're in the wrong thread!
 
That's what the guy told me.

I'm gonna call again on Monday just to be sure, but yeah he said 31 March for my 24" 3.06ghz with ATI 4850.
 
He said he didn't order his directly on Apple store. Therefore, I doubt he has anyway to track his order there. I just hope that's true so that we all can get it earlier than expected. I can't wait any longer... :(

No way, he wont get it any sooner than those who ordered through the Apple Store.
 
I doubt that he'll be receiving his when the "guy" said he would. That guy has no idea what's going on with 4850.

I want to hope that it ships, because it leads us to believe that they're ready...but I just don't see it happening.

They still show 3 to 5 weeks for the 4850 configuration in the Apple store. I suspect once they resolve whatever is holding them up, they will ship in mass. As I mentioned, they want their money.....:D
 
Just ordered my iMac with the ATI Graphics card. Here is my config:

iMac, 24-inch, 2.93GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
1.0TB Serial ATA Drive
iWork '09 preinstalled
Apple Wireless Keyboard (English) and User's Guide
Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse
ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB
COUNTRY KIT,IMAC 24
3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB

Of course... ship estimated in "3-5 weeks." I paid extra for a 2 day shipping, first time I've ever done that. Probably not worth the 30$, but hey! 3 days sooner for my iMac. I'll buy that. I'm hoping they'll drop the shipping date some... but eh. I don't expect to get mine sooner than you guys do.
 
"Ships: May 4
Delivers: May 6"


Geez... Waiting shall be tough. Thats a full 2 months after Apple ugraded the iMacs...
 
I ordered mine on March 18th with a ship date of April 22nd and an arrival date of April 28th. It's still listed standard shipping. Did they upgrade yours?

Mine is a replacement for my old one i purchased in oct '08 and it went wrong with constant freeze ups and crackling sounds,Anyway i spent four months with the tech support guys and the repair place and no one could fix it.
So they fianally decided to replace.

Mine has been on that status from the beginning maybe because it's a replacement....
 
Guys, I am ready to order my imac with the 4850 too...

If I order today will I still have a 5 week wait ? or once they start shipping in 2 weeks time, will my wait time drop ?

Still speculative..... They do not have a confirmed date when they will start to ship.

Mine still shows ships April 14 delivers April 18. I would be surprised if it ships exactly on April 14. I would further speculate that once they start shipping, the scheduled delivery times for many will change.

But that is only speculation, which we are all doing here....;)
 
Just got my order confirmation/acknowledgment email. Still shipping date of May 4, delivers May 6. At least they know I want one, haha.
 
Just ordered mine today March 30th 2009

I just ordered mine today March 30, 2009 and it will be shipped 5 weeks from tomorrow it says. Man, I wish it was faster. This sucks. Wonder if ATI is the hold up? My order info is below.

I just went onto ATI site to see if drivers are available for 4850

When I went onto http://www.ati.com to see if drivers are available, usually you can download a set of drivers for the new cards fairly soon. However for the Radeon HD 4850 Mac O/S there were no drivers available for download at this time. Could this be the hold up for all the iMacs with the ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB card?

Mine was ordered March 30, 2009
