Me too - I got notification that my MacBook Pro arrives tomorrow, Tuesday.

I initially was going to purchase a smaller SSD, and the delivery date was towards the end of the month. I opted for the 1TB SSD in the end and was surprised to see that the delivery date was the following week - I guess Apple know what customers want.

I want to buy one of these but Apple store now shows late November to early December generally speaking.

Anyone have any idea if these will show up for click and collect at Apple Stores? No pickup option is showing yet on the store.

They aren't released yet, maybe when they are stock will appear in store for the non-BTO variants.

The extra RAM option seemed to impact the delivery date when I was playing with the Mac mini options but as you say, all the SSD options were all ready to go.

Not that I needed the extra SSD capacity as this mini is heading to a network rack, but interesting to see where Apple had proportioned their stock configurations.

I've ordered a few hours after the event. Still in the processing stage... MBA 16/256 and Mini 16/256...

Due to lockdown, all Apple stores are closed until after 2nd December. People have been reporting that the delivery dates that they've been given are often much sooner than the dates that the store is saying, so you might be lucky.
 
Just moved into “Preparing to Ship”! Estimate hasn’t moved though, still says “26 Nov”.

Silver MBP/16GB/512GB SSD. Ordered 10-20mins after event finished.

Looks like my M1 Mac Mini will arrive tomorrow (17th), rather than Wednesday 18th Nov as originally stated by Apple!

Looking forward to seeing how Xcode benefits from the M1 :p

MBA- Space Gray 16GB/256GB just went to preparing to ship, how long did it take for people to move from preparing to ship to shipped?
 
My Mac Mini 16GB/512 has just moved to 'Preparing to ship', due on the 25th but keeping everything crossed and praying to every god it arrives before this weekend :D
 
MBA 16 256 preparing to ship. Wanted to order the 16 512 but apple decided to that i just need 256gb of storage 😂. Will use my externe USB 3.1 SSD.

They are still doing collection from stores of the new iPhones and other Macs... just have a look in the Apple store app.

You can't go into the store but they just stand at the entrance.

How do you order for store pickup? Apple UK online ordering says:

www.apple.com

Buy MacBook Air

Edit: Looking at Apple's web site, it may only be 'selected' Apple stores that are open for pickup.

Mini 16gb/1tb ordered here. I placed my order about an hour after the event. Stated as delivery for the 25th but it's now moved to 'preparing to ship' as of this morning. Can't wait!
 
Base MBP has moved further north according to Syncreon. I'm thinking "You're going the wrong waaaaaaay!" :D
