OMG light at the end of the tunnel! I just got this email:


I have no idea what agency he is referring to, or the bit about just gotten approval to ship the quad core to Australia, seeing as people here already have them, but it is a step in the right direction.

Of course the light at the end of the tunnel is always an oncoming train!

I reakon that because ours were ordered and made first, there is something seriously wrong with them, and apple were waiting to get permission to import DOA and damaged units that the Americans have returned under warrenty.

Check the contents carefully my friend, make sure you get a 27" iMac and not a street sign or something..
 
I reckon we will get our notifications next Wednesday. Looks like we are on the 24th shipping run.

for everyones sake i hope it gets shipped today :D:D:D but i know that aint gonna happen. im away until next friday anyway so i guess i dont want it to arrive until then. :cool:

last uni exam in an hour or so.. AI.. heavy stuff :( cyas

I was just about to post that it looks like mine didn't make it out of Sydney yet, but your post gives me hope that I'll see an update on mine in a short while... Would be so happy to receive it today, but maybe being on the Sunshine Coast means there'll still be an extra day involved... We'll see...
 
:( Keep checking - TNT tracking seems to have lagged between Hong Kong and Sydney, once it gets to final destination the tracking seems to be more real time.

Just got a phone call! They expect to be past my place sometime between 3 and 4 this afternoon!

Refreshed the tracking page after getting off the phone:

Congrats in advance guys as you recieve your macs today, hope you enjoy them as much as i look forward to enjoying mine.
I guess you will dissapear from the thread after you get delivery, thanks for your company while we all waited :)
 
How many people still have shipping: November?

Just wondering how many other Australians still have shipping: November, what you ordered and when.

It seems alot of people who have ordered recently are getting their shipping times almost as soon as they order.

My order:

Product: iMac i7 standard config
Ordered: 10/11/2009
Order Status: Ships: November

Yep it would be interesting to see what the current deal is with new aussie orders. I had Ships: November until about early november then it changed to the equally informative: Not Yet Shipped message.

Hopefully yours gets on this next shipment on the 24th, the guy on the phone told me the cut off date for this shipment is the 20th, so if there are any lurkers reading this that havnt ordered, you might like to consider doing it today!
 
Mine has just been delivered (literally 10min ago) - now to be patient enough to open it up when I get home from work :| :D :cool:

*Edit*
Holy hell the box is large!

I probably will dissapear, but I will try to pop in every now and then until you get yours, just to mention how AWESOME this is (better not speak to soon, knowing my luck the LCD probably has 30 dead pixels, a huge crack down the screen, and the magic smoke would escape after I've turned it on :eek:).

Heck with the little dance,

I would be busting more moves than a burlap sack full of wild cats :D
 
Has anyone here ordered from an Aussie reseller received their i7 yet? I ordered on Nov 6 from a reseller in Sydney and no sign of iMac.
