Hi all - thought I would chime in just for reference. I ordered the following on 1/3/13:
27" iMac Quad-Core Intel Core i5 2.9GHz,
8GB RAM,
1TB Hard Drive,
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660M graphics processor with 512MB of GDDR5 memory, Two Thunderbolt ports,
Apple Numeric Keyboard and Magic Trackpad,
OS X Mountain Lion
Macmall originally estimated a ship date in the 2nd or 3rd week of the this month. I sent a follow-up email just to see where things were, and received the following today:
"We are now expecting arrival of the item you ordered by February 14, 2013. However, please be advise that this date provided to us by the manufacturer may still subject to change. We suggest a follow up a day after the aforementioned date as it takes a day for our warehouse to update inventory. We do hope by then your order has already shipped and we have fulfilled already our commitment to you our valued customer."
I'm hoping that's a "safe" date and I see it sooner... but who knows
