Mine also left Memphis in the wee hours of yesterday morning (Aug 10, 2007 2:52 AM), but the status hasn't been updated in the last 24 hours. It's coming to Canada, but I would have expected it to have cleared customs etc yesterday...
 
I take it "prepared for shipment" means that it should be on its way within the next few days?
 
Ordered my 24" 2.8 with regular configuration on Wed. Aug 8th and today, Sat. Aug 11th, it is listed as "Prepared For Shipment" to Canada.

Any idea why the Order Info says that it is a Custom Configuration and why it say that it is a 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo instead of the 2.8 GHz Core 2 Extreme that I ordered??

Cheers/ :):apple:

I'm in the same boat as you, the fact its a custom config means its the 24" with the extreme chip in it, so I'm assuming its just a typo and nothing to worry about.

New iMac on its way...

I too ordered a new 24" iMac.

I also ordered a Canon MP470 All-In-One Printer for $100.

I will receive a $100 rebate for the printer because I purchased from the Apple Store.:D

Hard to say no to a free printer. Now about those Printer Cartridges...

Of course I had to order a copy of Parallels so I can login to work from home.

I also went ahead and bought an AirPort Extreme Base Station, now that it has a three Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports.

This should work perfect with the iMac...:cool:

I can't wait to setup my first Mac...

Here is a Specs Sheet from my order:

IMAC 24/SD with the following configuration:

* Processor: 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
* Memory: 2GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM - 2x1GB
* Hard Drive: 320GB Serial ATA Drive
* Optical Drive: SuperDrive 8X(DVD+R DL/DVD+RW)
* Modem: NO MODEM
* Apple Software Solutions: iWork '08 preinstalled
* Mouse: Apple Mighty Mouse
* Keyboard and Mouse: WIRED KYBRD & MAC OS X KIT

SHIPPING STUFF:

-- Ships by: Aug 14 - Aug 16
-- Delivers by: Aug 16 - Aug 22

I can't wait to be part of the Apple Family.

Can someone please pass me the Kool Aid.

I've heard it tastes great and is less filling than windoze.

Peace...:apple:

TNT are showing the exact same shipping info for my imac (24" 2.8GHz) so we should get them around the same time.

Apple says Fri :)
 
I hope in the next couple of hours Apple (China) releases my computer to UPS/Fedex who ever they are using. Seeing it is only 5:04 AM Monday over there. I hope in the next 10 hours it will ship *fingers crossed* i would love too have it by Wednesday :) I just wish I used Express shipping on Wednesday, would have been shipped probably Friday, would have probably received it by Monday (tomorrow).
 
mine shipped from china Friday. Fedex status says it's now in Memphis. I was hoping I'd have it by Tuesday, but it seems like it says it won't be here until wednesday. Ah well! Very excited to have a replacement for my iMac G5.
