I think Fed X is behind on posting updates this morning. I have two domestic packages coming today and both of them are not even here in Phoenix yet as they normally are reporting.

Trying to figure this out on the laptop . It's estimated tomorrow morning the 2nd.

Do they clear customs in China first. Seems like it spent a extra day in China. Yea i know I have zero amount of patience

And then it will go to Warsaw, Poland and onwards to Koln/Bonn, Germany. Search for UPS flight 9 (5X9 or 5X009) if you want to try and find it!

Interesting, couldn't seem to find anything but I might be using the wrong flight tracking sites.

So it goes from Louisville to Toronto? Wonder how it goes to Montreal.
Mine is still on its way to Alaska.

Should leave Warsaw and arrive in Cologne before 23:00 GMT so by then we will know for sure.

 

[adamryan1983]

No, mine is going to Newfoundland and it went from Alaska to Indianapolis and now on its way to Ontario. I would assume yours would follow the same path.

Awesome! Made me laugh while waiting for my MBP (which will arrive thursday)

I finally and spontaneously bought my macbook pro 13" base level yesterday and played with it all night! Including apple care and office 2011, i paid over 1600 (in canada) and felt so guilty for spending so much more than just the 1149 i anticipated but the computer is just so beautiful. There goes a chunk of tuition and rent money but it adds motivation to earn it all back.

The only thing i dont like is the filing system. Moving files and all that stuff is so annoying! Maybe OS lion will be better?

But i love everything else about it. After talking about a mac for years, i finally have one and im not looking back!

 

[justjohn025]

There you go.

Orlando? Hey me too.

wow. how do you know which flight to track? I don't see any flight information in the tracking results.

Also, I checked with different flight trackers and could not find any info on flight 5x9 or 5x009. (tried with flightstats.com and flightstats.co.uk among others)
