No express shipping for me
It looks as if reports of express shipping for all 27" iMacs is incorrect. The attached image of my tracking info at FedEx says 'International Economy'. That would appear to be corroborated by the actual tracking info. After being picked up early yesterday morning, it sat in Shanghai for over 24 hours before actually leaving earlier today. It went though Japan today, and if it made the connecting flight, it should have just landed in Anchorage. I'm crossing my fingers that it makes the flight to Memphis tonight, and then makes the journey back to Los Angeles.
All in all though I'm not worried or upset at the wait. When I ordered the machine Apple said it would be delivered between Feb 4-11. FedEx says I'll have it on the 4th. Apple has kept every promise they made to me regarding delivery.
