Memphis was only a guess on part using the shipping times, there is a fedex flight still in the air that fits the criteria (Achorage to Indanapolis)

but i dident think with tracking time at 3 it would make sense for it to be on a 5pm, flight

Thanks so much ! Wowsers, the MacRumors community is great

I must add, as I forgot before, that isnoops was very helpful in maintaining my sanity. It gave a lot more updates than the fedex site did.

So were those the correct flights? Fedex did not update as arrived yet.

Looks like it was Memphis. At least for me anyways. Heading for Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.

yes, i knew it was that. just a pain in the ass when i have to wait so long for it, I thought waiting for the upgrade to Core 2 Duo was back, I was very wrong.

Just got off the phone with a FedEx rep and he said the package is in fact in Memphis. Looks like iSnoop is better at tracking than FedEx's own site ... weird. Anyways, this will be an anxious weekend for me. Cheers.

Well, i had a night out with my friends last night so i didnet get home till 3am, When i checked the tracking info it was still in IN, so i figured it was a lost cause to make it here by this morning.

To my suprise, a 9:30, a nock at my door woke me up from a semi asleep state (Alarm had just gone off at 9) And there was Fedex, holding the box! I went from half asleep to bright and awake in a snap when i realized what she was holding!

Heres the last little bit of my tracking log:

mine is being delivered by a squadron of pigeons
old, lazy pigeons

:\

oh, I'm fricken pissed off, I phoned FedEx and the person i sopke to said my package was in Thunder Bay, and she was unsure as to wether it was on the truck or not, and would check to see, and if not, i could pick it up, and if it was, then i could pick it up later. said someone would phone me back. some one phoned me about 10 minutes later, says "looks like your package is in toronto, can't get it until monday"

needless to say, i am very very very pissed off

RE: Order Status Changed; No longer can click to see specs

My "Order Status" page on apple.com changed so no it does NOT let me click to see the specs of my MBP. That changed to read "Custom Configured" and it is not a link that expands anymore to show the specs.

Weird. i nver saw this happen before on the Order Staus page.

BTW: I placed this order on 10/30 @ 8:33PM PST. So my order looks as though it will take quite a while to ship!

Nov 3, 2006 - 3:22 PM - Departed FedEx location - MEMPHIS, TN

I assume it is on FedEx Flight 597, since it's going to the only airport near me
http://flightaware.com/live/flight/FDX597

EDIT - It could actually be on this flight as well: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/FDX238
(let alone a couple of other flights )

I still have an estimated delivery of Nov 6, 2006 6:00 PM

Can't wait for it to be here

Cheers!
