Well 13 hrs. later, and the i5 order still says "Prepared for Shipment"![]()
Well yet another 12+ hours later, and still no change or delivery date...![]()
Order number is W6571XXXX and I ordered on Nov. 9.
Really looking forward to getting it. I have a 2.4 ghz 24" iMac and I'm really expecting a big jump in performance - especially in Handbrake and other video encoding as well as VMWare.
I've already ordered and received 2x2 gigs of RAM as well as the VESA plate and a VESA arm.
Now I just need a machine. Patience, patience, patience...
Order says "Ships in November" still, but my Amex has been authorized by not billed.
i7 iMac (standard config plus iWork pre-installed) ordered 10/28/09 9:31am PST. Order # W6549xxxx
"Cancel Items" button greyed out on 11/10.
Credit Card Pre-authorized on 11/8. Credit Card pre-authorization dropped off on 11/11. Credit card has not been charged.
Order status still says "Not yet shipped". I called Apple today and the rep told me everything on my order is still a "go" (no issues with credit card, shipping info, order items, etc.).

FYI - My order has now changed to "Prepared for Shipment". If there are still any October order dates out there, there is still hope!

FWIW, Before I ordered, I spoke with an Apple employee who is stationed at the local Big Box store. This was before the new models were released. I was sort of aggravated that he did not let me know new models were coming. I went there several times looking and procrastinating as I always do, so it was a good thing this time! Anyway, I asked him about that and he told me that he or his boss is never told about new products. He says the way they find out is when they come in on shipment. So, he seemed to be truthful, but that is all I know about it. And I dont know if that is only the case since he is stationed at the big box store rather than an Apple store. There is not one in town, so was not able to check that.
Hopefully I will not be following this thread for very long!

What the hell, Apple? Will calling and complaining accomplish anything?
