Are you in the UK as well? Maybe they're waiting for a whole bunch to clear customs by tonight so they can ship them out to be received tomorrow
Yep I'm in Lincolnshire! And yeah it does sound that way, though my scheduled delivery is for Wednesday. Fingers crossed :)

I just got the text that my ship to store is available today after getting quoted June 20th when I placed the order... Unfortunately I am out of town and can't go pick it up until Saturday... Anybody know how many days they give you until your order is cancelled? I wont get a chance to call Apple until tomorrow.

That's mine exactly. Ours are together.

I'm not worried about it. I expect it to leave China today, for sure. It probably just missed the boat for heading out before Sunday.

Good news! It's in transit! Goodbye, China.

So mine has been saying in transit in Shanghai since about the time you posted and nothing has changed since. Can we infer that it is actually in the air, rather than in a crate in the air freight terminal? :)

I've been watching this flight here and there (what is wrong with me?). Timing and location seems right (maybe?). Might be out Airs in the air (hahahaha).

I just ordered an 11" i5/4GB/256 after I decided that the I'd like to have a base model rather than the i7/8GB that I ordered last Wednesday.

I have a desktop. This is a secondary computer for me, so I'd much rather have fantastic battery life and as little heat as possible in my notebook. After all, this is replacing an iPad 2.

Just ordered the 13" Air w/ i5, 8GB Ram and 256GB Storage.

I have a 2011 Macbook Pro that has basically become a desktop hooked up to two monitors. I needed something much more portable, and this fits the bill! Can't believe I just dropped $1500 on another laptop, but I think it will be worth it in the long run.

You can't put a price on convenience.

Oh great! Now I'll be watching it until it lands and hope to see an update in tracking. Thanks a lot:mad:

:D

So, I did..... As I played poker, surfed, watched TV tonight I took a look at the map every once in awhile. And once I noticed the aircraft had landed I refreshed the tracking page and now it's in Memphis, so I guess you were right! :)

I ordered about a couple of hours after the keynote and was quoted 18th-20th delivery (I'm in the UK).

It still hasn't shipped. Great! thanks, apple.

This behaviour did not surprise my wife for some reason:

I ordered an i5,8G/256G right after the keynote and online store opening on June 10

I cancelled and ordered the same, but with the i7 just after midnight that evening.

On June 12 around noon, I came to my senses and cancelled, re-orderd with the i5 again:cool:

On June 14 I reconsidered my reconsiderations, cancelled and ordered with the i7 all over again. But this time I sprung for expedited shipping to make up for my shenanigans:eek:

Almost immediately after that the order went to the next step and I was unable to cancel if I had desired. Probably a good thing:eek:

Cheers!

Ordered 13"/i7/8GB/256 straight after the keynote. My first Mac - can't wait really. I think I'm going to love OS X.

It's not going to be my main computer, and really unsure if I rather should've gone for the 11". Felt a bit small when looking at it in the store, but after reading comparisons I think I've made the wrong decision. Might have to return it - and very few people fancy going back to the 13" after having the 11"...! :)

There are a lot of people who like the 11". I prefer the 13" one, as I find the 11" just too small for my liking.

To each their own, though. You may find you really like the 13".

Patiently waiting for the 11"/Corei5/8GB/256GB that I ordered a week ago as of this writing. Makes me wish I chose the faster shipping option, but no biggie. On a positive note, I suspect it will be delivered earlier than the promised date, judging from how it is turning up for other members. Mine is about to be dispatched a Province away (I'm in Alberta, package is in B.C., Canada). Crossing fingers.
