My 15" is Preparing for Shipment. I am so excited:)
 
Hmmm. Mine (UK order) shipped on Friday, and nothing on the DHL tracking site has changed since.

Still listed as "Eindhoven - The Netherlands: Tracking information received. Shipment not yet picked up by DHL"

Starting to see how it can still take a week to arrive, after dispatch date :-(

Same here. My 15" 2.7/1TB/460 shipped on Friday, and my DHL tracking site is showing the same (Spain Order). Delivery expected on January 16th, which seemed like a lot of time to me, but... well, who knows!

P.S: On Apple's web, shipment status has been changing slightly (last change today, stating the the parcel is on time, but keeping the same delivery date: Jan 16th date)

Ordered TB 2.9/460/1TB on the 27/12 to deliver to UK. Status changed yesterday (08/01) to preparing for dispatch and card was charged! Pickup date in store says 25 Jan, though for delivery to home it said 18-25 Jan. So I'm hoping for a bit earlier than the 18th.

Looks like all of you guys with a high-end 2.9/2Tb/460 are getting your order delayed; I've seen more delays here in the last pages, and all had your setup. So must be something with SSD or CPU, because the rest of 460 CTO are shipping (mine, 2.7/1Tb/460, shipped on Jan 06th as expected, and seems to be arriving on time). Weird.

Still "Processing" for my 2.6/1TB/460 CTO - ordered the 11th of December.

Seeing 2.7/1TB/460 CTOs in stock at one reseller here in Norway though.

Damn. I ordered mine on Dec 22nd (2.7/1TB/460 CTO). If there is something wrong with 460/Macbooks in general, I kind of dislike that mine has been shipped already. At the same time, I'm looking forward to getting it lol

Haha, sort of what I'm thinking - I really want my laptop yesterday, but at the same time I'm hoping any issues will be ironed out by the time mine is built ;)

Ordered a 15" 2.9/256/460 on January 3rd here in The Netherlands. Estimated delivery between the 23rd and 30th of January.

This is the first time I really have no idea when to actually expect the MBP. In previous years it was almost a certainty that orders would arrive a day before the lowest estimate.

This year region seems to be a factor as well in CTO orders for some strange reason. In various forums I see orders placed from late (22nd and onwards) December being shipped now, while orders placed in early December are still processing. Neither the 2.9Ghz or 2TB storage seems to be the (only) cause of this since the 2TB people seemingly have to wait even longer. It does seem like orders placed from the US and the UK are being shipped out a lot sooner than orders from the rest of Europe.

Same with the LG 5k monitor I ordered on the 20th of December within forty minutes of it becoming available (minutes after the shipping window moved to 2-4 weeks). Estimated delivery 9-20, still processing. Yet I see that orders placed from the UK and US days later, up to the 29th, have already been shipped and even delivered. They're even starting to become available in Apple Stores in a few countries.

It seems like their "Underpromise and overdeliver" strategy has gone out the window when it comes to actually delivering the products to their customers.
 
My 2.9Ghz/460/1Tb ordered on December 25th is preparing for shipment to the US, my card has been charged.

FYI, apple is insisting that standard shipping (5-7 business days) is the only available option. This is a lie. A support agent bumped me up to free 2-3 days, shortened my window quite a few days.

Prolly the ssd and not the cpu, my 2.9/512/460 was changed to preparing for shipment today. While my friend's 2.9/2tb has been processing since mid Nov

Could be short supply of 2TB drives?

Yeah, Could be; I hope so, if that means that nothing is wrong with out laptops :p

PS: Although my DHL tracker says "EINDHOVEN, Information received..." since Jan 6th, Apple's order status page now says "preparing handover to final carrier"; so my DHL status might change soon :D

Seems like ours are in similar/the same batches - mine has updated to that status now too.

It's now become torture, since my 27" LG 5k monitor arrived this morning, and is now just sat on my desk, taunting me.

Just got a notification: My mac has been shipped! ETA Jan 16th. (I hope it arrives sooner :p)

Hmmm, I ordered a maxed 15" MBP on November 22nd and I don't have even a shipping notice yet.

My 5k is due to arrive today, but my maxed 15" MBP that was ordered on Nov 22nd hasn't so much as resulted in a shipping notice. I had a 4-6 week window. It's looking more like a 6-8 week window for me at this point.

My DHL status just changed to "Processed at AMSTERDAM, 17:36", and also updated the delivery date from Jan 16th to Jan 10th... Tomorrow!:eek:


P.S: It's a Space Gray 15" 2.7/1TB/460, ordered on Dec 22nd, shipped on Jan 06th, and with an original delivery date of Jan 17th-24th. Spain.
