Lots of luck.

This method worked for me. I just did it right now. Too bad the expected ship date is March 28
 
refreshed, and voila

1.6 80gb prepared for shipment.

as for my 1.8 80gb, still not yet.
 
Got my order confirmation today.

I visited my Apple store in Durham, NC yesterday (1-27-08), where I was told they would not have any MBA's to even look at for another 3 weeks. I came home, and pre-ordered one. MACBOOK AIR 13/1.6/2GB/80GB-USA. Got the confirmation email today, in less than 24-hours. States a ship date of 2-12-08, which is of course, the same 3 weeks as stated at the local store.
 
Prepared for shipment

Mine's prepared for shipment, too! Though, nothing's yet happened to my credit card...I bet that will show up when the bank opens back up tomorrow...
 
I am psyched too.. "prepared for shipment" I actually can't believe it

My delivery date still remains Feb 7th. Usually once the item ships the expected delivery date adjusts to match the tracking data.

Lets hope this isn't a false alarm like last week. :rolleyes:
