About the delayed retail launch. Everything is very inconsistent which it shouldn't be. (Chinese weather)

Scared me there...was worried I hadn't heard about some fatal flaw in my en route MBA!

Mines in Boston about 3 hours from me. Says it left Boston but nothing further. Maybe tomorrow. More likely Tuesday.

Thats ok though cause Cybergypsy will have hers tomorrow so I can get all the info from her before mine comes.:)

Yes, I guess I have a shot at getting it tomorrow. Depends on if it makes Albany some time today or later this evening to get on the truck for delivery. I can't pick it up cause I understand Apple doesn't allow that but its an hour + ride each way anyways.

Fedex told me possibly Monday. Mine is still in Indy. I would think they would start moving again tonight for the Overnight packages to be there on Monday.

Sad/happy to say mine was prepared and I only ordered at 10PM on the 16th (1.8/SSD)...

Still "Not Yet Shipped" for a 1.8/SSS ordered 1/16 at 6am PST. I don't even much mind waiting, really. It's just that I keep convincing myself, "Maybe there is something wrong! Maybe there is a problem I ought to call and fix!"

Getting it tomorrow??

Hey Guys,

Curious if you think I'll get this tomorrow or the FEDEX "expected delivery" of Tuesday... What a way to spend the weekend...

Left Indy at 4:49, yesterday, I'm about 45 minutes outside of LA.

Thanks,

I find it concerning that we haven't had any new "Prepared for shipments" in the past few days.

hi tampa, from across the bay in st pete. my brother in wisconsin got notice his SSD has arrived in Alaska from Shanghai. To quote him:

"an SSD MBA ordered the afternoon of the day of the keynote has made it to the U.S. and is scheduled for Wednesday a.m. delivery"

Mine is exactly like yours except mine made it to Boston and departed from there.

I would say there is a good chance you will get it Monday.

So I just called Fedex about my shipment to see what was up and they say its in Memphis already and passed customs, etc. The tracking page shows "Departed FedEx location" in Anchorage..

I was also told that it wouldn't be delivered any sooner than my delivery date because they don't open the pallets until a day or so before. Is this correct? I've had other reps say I'll get it Monday...

It looks like our MBA's were on the same flight. I think they arrived in Ontario, CA last night, but I haven't received a status update. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow.
