I was just like you when I ordered mine a couple of months ago. You've got the exact same spec as mine and the way I "counted the days", as it were, was by looking at the "Post your Mac Setup" gallery in the Picture Gallery forum and even searching on Flickr and Google Images for MBP pics.

Man, as the time for delivery got closer and closer I got more and more obsessed and impatient so I know what you're going through. You'll be alright; there is light at the end of the tunnel. Hold on!

Still there's nothing like the feeling you get when you see the sharpness of the text on the Hi-Res screen and high quality of the display (after playing around with the colour profiles that is). Not to mention the smooth feeling of the Aluminium, the softness of the keys, the beautiful design, that wonderful "new electrical item" smell ... oops, I'm just making it worse for you aren't I?! :D

I orderd August 29th; it shipped September 1st and arrived September 4th. But I didn't personally get it until September 18th cos my friend bought it for me in America and I had to wait for her to come over.

So can you imagine the stress I felt having to wait so long for it to arrive even though I knew she had it with her already, just sitting there, waiting to be used ... :eek:

I ordered my MBP (17", HR,Glossy,Preloaded iWork) on 10/27. It shipped on 10/29 from Shanghai, and I had it my grubby little hands on 10/31. It was tough to not blow off the trick-or-treaters to play with my new toy! :)
 
Well my MBP arrived on saturday, two words: HOLY S$!T!!
This things is fast!!!doing simple things is a snap multiple windows? bring it!.Windows vista on bootcamp screams! and The High resolution Glossy Display has me hooked Video and graphics look beautiful. im extremely happy with my MBP.My only gripe is that it take a lot of time for the battery to charge.
