If you ordered an i7, don't be so sure. I ordered on the 11th and haven't had any change yet.
Got a tip for us?

I received the bill from Apple today and my card has been charged... hope the iMac will get here fast!
Nah I stuck with the base i5. Though I'd have said it was the opposite of what you predict - I've noticed far more i7s being shipped than i5s recently (based on this topic). Though with a fellow i5-er in the UK having shipping confirmation for an order placed only a day before mine, I'm guessing theres a fresh batch off the production line.
But yeah. My order is still estimating 'November'.
I've been calling daily. I'll try to post a pic when I get back from work (13 hours from now).
Just ordered i7 yesterday and got the ship date Dec 1 to arrive in Houston Dec 4! Merry Christmas to me
My local Apple store was POSITIVE that they would have the i7 in stock even though it was a BTO because of 'demand' in the area. idk. Finally gave up and just ordered online instead.
That's disgustingly fast
, however, happy for you. I think Apple messed up my order. When I ordered I also ordered a printer, applecare and the remote. The next day I received an email from Apple stating there was a problem. The credit card company rejected one of the charges although when I ordered I notified the CC company to pre-authorize the amounts. Called Apple, they said the CC accepted the charge for the printer and applecare but rejected the fricking $20.00 remote. I said I would call them. Apple said I did not have to call them (apple) back as they would re-submit the charge. Called the CC company and they explained that Apple had made a charge, then a credit, then the printer, applecare and remote. They only needed my OK. All was well, I thought. My remote was supposed to be here yesterday or today but was and is still not shipped. I called the CC company and they never received a resubmission from Apple for the $20.00. Called Apple and they could not explain why and did the resubmission for the $20.00. They also gave me 2 day shipping HOWEVER, this has caused another delay. The remote now says another 3 - 5 days to be shipped and not arriving up to the 24th. My iMac still says shipping in November. This is rediculous. I told Apple that I needed to have it shipped in November because the wife gets double points on her credit card and, if the wife's not happy, nooooobody's happy,. She just laughed, wife didn't. Since it was Apple's screwup they should expidite this thing.There is an order for an i5 a few hours before mine, and one a day later that have both shipped. What does that tell you about i7 orders?
Looks like I'll be getting mine a day early. It was in China yesterday, and should be at my door today. Amazing.

My new iMac has just arrived!!!
I ordered on the 20th Oct
27" iMac i7 2TB 8GB
Shipped 11/11/09
To those who ordered in October who have not yet had a Shipping Notification, I would suggest you call Apple, without my two calls and them trying trying to speed it up I am not convinced that it would be here today.
Now.... how many days to the next iMac update
I have tried calling Apple a few times, all I get is "it ships sometime in Nov, we have no further information" and the bullcrap that orders are shipped in the order that they were placed. That is obviously not true based on this thread.
Calling them does not help.
You are right - orders aren't shipped in the order that they were placed. I ordered mine Nov 10th expecting to get it sometime in Dec. It shipped today!
My order changed to Prepared to shipment.
Ordered an i5 on 12 november.
Location is the Netherlands

Popped home in my lunch hour and was lucky to catch the UPS delivery.
I didn't realise how big it is. Dwarfs my 20".

That the more time you spend refreshing this topic to see who have and haven't received their order, the more irate you're going to be? It also tells me that Apple need to be more consistent with their ordering system =o/
Also I've just noticed that although the shipping details haven't budged from 'November', I can no longer cancel the order which is a good sign.
Weird, I ordered a "stock" i7 on Nov. 13 and mine is still "not yet shipped." Maybe they do runs of different configurations and they just happened to do one with 8GB and 2TB drives before doing more plain i7s.
Just wanted to give an update...
Ordered i7: Nov. 11
Prepared to Ship: Nov. 18 (Early Morning)
Shipped: Nov. 18 (Mid Morning)
Scheduled to Arrive: Nov. 23
I'm in mid-west, US. Everything was stock on the i7, except had iWork pre-installed.
Hope this helps on any recent orders.

Yup. Mine's languishing in Shanghai, too. Due by the 23rd as well. Do we need more Canadians to order these things to warrant a container shipped to us? I think you were right about that loading dock thing. Maybe iMac boxes make convenient seats in the smoke break area.
If it doesn't arrive by the 25th I might call Apple like JimKirk did, and have them work some customer service magic. I shoulda taken advantage of that printer rebate offer.
Bah. I'd rather just get the computer on time.
Delivery date is sooner than expected. Was supposed to deliver on Tuesday,Nov.24th. Lastest update said this "THE SERVICE SELECTED IS NOT AVAILABLE TO THE DESTINATION ADDRESS / DOWNGRADED, FORWARDED TO CONSIGNEE, SELECTED SERVICE IS NOT AVAILABLE". Now the rescheduled delivery date is saying on Friday,Nov.20th. Anyone from Toronto Ontario have something similar?
My i7, 8GB, 2TB was just delivered to my office, sitting next to me. Looking forward to taking it home and making love to it.
Oslo, Norway btw.
