Well, EASTER is a HUGE HUGE holiday in Europe. Not only did they have off on Friday, but they also have off on Monday....perhaps this is causing the delay?
 
I'm sure i'll be accused of self-promotion again, but I'll mention that the 2 business day delay on all apple products is happening across most, but not all, of the European stores. Exceptions like Ireland, UK, Germany, Austria are interesting, as well as other overwhelmingly Catholic countries like Brazil and the Philippines.

Here's a record of MBP delay times: http://applembpwait2010.blogspot.com/
