List of Members Waiting for their Macbook Air to Ship and Arrive and Photos!

Might want to check on that and make sure that your're not wasting your money. I tried this a couple of times in the past and both times FedEx said they had to have Apple's permission to deliver on a Saturday.

I dont pay unless its here but still planning on Monday :)
 
so i ordered a air for my dad, 1.6 80 std config, and it was due to arrive monday, but i just got a call from him that he got it already.

as for my 1.8, it just shipped today so its going to be a long next few days.

It worked for me. NO Saturday delivery. But, since they sent it from INDY to Memphis they will put it on a flight tonight for me to pickup on Saturday. No charge - very nice group of people.

I'm in the same situation as you are (unfortunately). Because I am anxious to get this thing, I called them and explained my situation. Apparently Apple has strict rules about pickup before the first delivery attempt. However the lady was super nice and she said that she would send a message to my local fedex station to see if I could pick it up tomorrow.

Did the person you talked to say that you could pick it up for sure?
 
I don't get it... I ordered the same thing BEFORE you at 1:30pm PST (1.8/SSD), but it's still showing as "not yet shipped"! It still reads ship on Feb. 6! What's going on, and why can't I be more patient!

I was under the impression that the only time that my order would change is during working hours in China. This morning sometime between 8-9 am EST, my MBA (1.8/SSD/no iWork or other "stuff") went to "Prepared to ship". I ordered it at 5:42 PST on the 15th.

Does anyone know if they are flying things out on Saturday?

Hopefully, this will get to Alaska sometime this weekend.

Ok here is the latest NO pick up at all for anyone, Per Apples orders i even called apple, Might be a slim chance tomorrow, or Monday for sure...... I going to take my oxy now my back and head are spinning
 
So, this is kind of odd, I think, but when I opened iTunes, it became apparent that it didn't have iTunes 7.6 In fact, it didn't have most of the last month's worth of updates...
 
well since there are NONE in Los Angeles, looks like I'll have to fly to JFK tonight! UGHHH Still accepting local offers...until 11:10 PM! :O

I totally thought about flying out, but if I was going to I should have in the early am. Tomorrow AM might be able to find one much more easily.

I'm too lazy now. I'm worn out between traveling Atlanta plus a scheduled maintenance appt at BMW. I've got three personal shopper appt's for tomorrow and I'm going to call tonight shortly before closing to see who gives me a real answer or I'm not going to show up lol.

:confused: Seriously? Why? Like I said, they'll be on sale by Tuesday, maybe sooner. And surely you can find one in California at least (lotta Apple stores in CA. If you're going to fly anyway, why not call up San Diego? San Francisco?)? Why leave the west coat and fly across the country?

What is saving a few days gonna get ya?

I have YET to find one in CA that the seller will send a picture of (with a $20 bill on it for verification). I've been stood up 3 times with cash in my hand at a location. VERY peeved at the moment.

I hope this guy is joking. On the second thought you can buy my 1.6/80 for $3000. You can take a redeye to Philly.

Heck, I'll throw in a $99 printer in the box!

It's not that funny.
I was going to do that this morning. Now though I'm worn out and don't feel like it. Though if they aren't in tomorrow, I'm going to regret the decision not going lol.
 
Just repeating myself

So, as it stands, we have a small number of 1.8/SSDs that were ordered the day of the keynote prepared for shipment. Is that still the case? Have any of these actually shipped?

For the record, I ordered mine on the 16th, at about 6am PST. Still "Not Yet Shipped," but Apple does seem to have initiated a charge on my card for the full amount of the laptop.

Well gee you might just be a very lucky guy there Calvinatr, has that occurred to you???

I'm just a girl from the sticks now, but I used to be a girl from NYC and I can tell you right now there's no way in hell I'd stand on a corner in any city in this wonderful country with even six HUNDRED cash on me that i TOLD someone in advance I'd have ready to swap for his allegedly for sale item.

I hope you got one hand on yer money and the other on speed dial 911 or either some kind of permitted-to-carry insurance. Where do you agree to meet for something like this, i/f/o a police station?

And as for the transactor on the other side, how does he know you didn't print the money. And he, he's coming by himself or with his 10 buds?

C'mon. You guys sound short a few cards either side of this deal. This is what shrinks call inexplicable risk-taking behavior. Over some machine that conventional wisdom has it will languish on the shelves in a few weeks on months. Maybe they're wrong but even when there were no more orange shuffles on the planet I managed to round one up through a legit vendor online and paid with plastic from the convenient castle of my residence.

Stay home, call your mom, say hi, rent a movie, play it on your old fashioned Powerbook so it won't realize the depth of your intent to betray it early next week. Fix up your playlists. Order pizza. Go work out.

Oops (trips over cat climbing off soapbox)...
