First- congrats on those with prepared for shipment!

Mine is no change- "not yet shipped".

For what it is worth-As of 6:30 Central, the Apple store employees said no MBA's were in (they were as curious as we are, and snooped but no new boxes!). They diddn't know when they would be in the store.
They have had the display material the back since last week. They also said that night crews set up the new displays and finish around 5AM. I then asked, and guess what? No night crews scheduled for tonight.

I hope mine gets shipped tomorrow!

:mad:

This MacBook Air stuff is about to give me a hernia. So much secrecy! I wish I could just walk in tomorrow and get it.

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

That's just a blanket date...they will ship out very soon, trust me-I've bought many pre-order Macs from Amazon! :p:)

It has begun!!!

I wish it were in my hands right now, looks like we should have them by Friday or Monday (provided they are coming from China, and Wonka-Steve didn't ship a stockpile secretly last week). :)

Coruscant, but Boston will do.
Remote Disc Update for other Apple Laptops?

Let's see if I can say this right: Anyone know if Apple will release a "Remote Disc" update down the road for all the other Apple Laptops? Only reason I'm asking is that my Powerbook G4 is pretty much on its death bed and the DVD Drive does not work anymore, and even if I replaced it it wont work because the side of the laptop is severely damaged. Don't ask how. lol

Either way, my next laptop after the MacBook will definitely be the MacBook Air.

I wonder if I should just cancel my Amazon pre-order and go in store. Gosh I wish I knew what would be first.

Same.. prepared for shipment. Hope it goes out tomorrow.

Anyone know if you can return a "sealed" version of the computer without paying a restocking fee? If they really do come out in the stores tomorrow I'd consider going and buying one, and then returning the MacBook Air that gets shipped to me.

Looks like only stock configs getting "prepared for shipment" - I ordered at 10:41am on the 15th - my 18/HDD still "not yet shipped". If in fact the Apple stores get stock of the 1.6/HDD, do you think there would be a noticeable performance difference from the 1.8? I'll mostly be using for travel and light office work stuff - email, web browsing, itunes, etc......

thoughts?

Looks like apple is updating order status in terms of original ship dates. Sounds like everyone with a ship date of Feb 6th is getting there status changed to "prepared for shipment. Can people please confirm this by posting there original ship date when there status changes. My ship date is feb 7th and so far nothing has changed.

Same here, last time our status' changed on the 19th to 'Prepared for Shipment', they didn't take the entire amount out. This time all of it came out. Last time they pended just $14. Not sure why it was $14.

Not everyone. I haven't seen anyone with the 1.8/SSD that had their status change. My ship date is Feb 6 and it still says "Not yet shipped".
