All of the apple part numbers for the top case w/keyboard end in 8315, they all just have different characters at the beginning per language.
I am in Chicago and I got an appointment at 9am, the store opens for regular business at 10. I wonder if they will let me buy early?
Either way I am in the store and hopefully the airs will be there!
When Apple sent you the e-mail saying your MBA had shipped, did Apple's estimated delivery say something else besides 1/31 as a delivery day? Mine shipped 1/130 too, but they give me a delivery estimate of 2/4. Currently, my FedEx does not show an estimated delivery but apparently left Shanghai at 11:58 AM their time and is showing to be "In Transit."
my email from apple said superdrive on 2/1 -- but fedex shows as 1/31 so i wonder where it is shipping from. on fedex it is still listed as details received with no sign of where its coming from.
on the mba apple said 2/1 in their email and fedex says 2/1. it was listed as international shipment release in anchorage when i just checked the tracking.

Because yours will arrive in Alaska Thursday afternoon around 1pm PST from Shanghai, then sit for a few hours, then head to Memphis or Indianapolis that late afternoon, getting there in the wee hours Friday early AM, missing the flights out to your city for Friday delivery. It'll show up in your home city either Friday PM or Saturday AM after all the trucks are already out.
See if your city/station will allow Saturday pickup.
I'm guessing your going to Lenox. I'm hoping for Friday also, but I'll take Thursday too!!!!
was it your mba that has overnight or the superdrive?
for MBA's as far as i have seen so far it looks like no matter what people paid for shipping they arrive on Friday 2/1 if ordered right after the keynote and then moving back 1 day at a time to 2/4, 2/5, etc.
my superdrive got upgraded to 2 to 3 day but it says on fedex its estimated to arrive to me tomorrow (our fedex person gets to the office bright and early so thats in less than 24 hours)
But we've already passed 1PM PST and it doesn't show it's arrived in AK. It'd better go to Indy...since that's closest
I was also registered for Thursday (registered for both Thursday and Friday right away), but they called to cancel it saying no MacBook Air thursday. They recommended Personal Shopper Appointments and told me they'd keep me updated.
Anyone here know what we are suppose to expect from the Personal Shopper Appointment? Get to play with the MBA with a sales person even if theres a crowd? lol. I'm now thinking about SSD too, don't know though. Guess I'll decide once I get to play hands on.
