That really really blows feel for ya man. I thought just about all had them by now who ordered within a day of launch.
 
Have you guys contacted Apple - have they offered anything in return? I know they want to keep their customers happy. Even thoug
uh technically they may not be in the "wrong" officially.
. I was really, really nice (called in on a Sat, before Christmas - told them I appreciate how hard they're working, and how hammered with calls they must be.) At the end, as suggested, I said I had a question about the SuperDrive, and the representative added it onto my order for free. Win :)

On the flip side, probably won't see my iMac till early Jan...

Glad to hear - not a problem to ask for something.
 
I sure hope it IS straightened out. It's info blackout till early Monday now.. Everyone at FedEx who knows is gone, the ones who are there don't know.

Drewaz, cscscs, me... Anyone else part of the 48 stuck in Memphis customs hell?

Last night FedEx told me it was a palate with 50 iMacs ... must be more than us!
 
hoping mine delivers on Monday....though it is scheduled for the 28th.

Couldn't find a matching FDX flight though. :confused:

Spoke with Fedex representative and has cleared customs and is on a flight to Anchorage......2 to 3 business day delivery.......... and agent indicated could deliver Monday; seeing is believing......

I am completely disgusted and mad now:mad:. My precious is sitting in Chicago sorting facility and scheduled for delivery for Thursday 12/27 !!! :confused:I called Fedex and asked what about Monday, Wednesday? Fedex said my package is scheduled to be delivered on Thursday. Called Apple, they can't do anything about it. I can't pick it up myself as it's in a sorting facility. I am just so disappointed. :( I have no chances of getting it before X-mas.
And Apple supposedly upgraded my shipping to "next day" when I called early December; at least that's what the order was saying. Next day? it's more like next week given it shipped out of China on Thursday. Hope you are getting yours faster....

Sorry to hear that; I clearly, like everyone else, would like it sooner rather than later but at least we are coming down the home stretch. The whole ordering process has seemed hard to reconcile. There are people that placed their order the first day and are still in "Purgatory" better known as "Processing hell". I will be out of town early January so as long as its before that it will be fine........let me refresh that screen one more time...................:)
 
Are those of you who are seeing shipping delays, did you order the upgraded 680 video card? I have a suspicion that is the reason for the delay, but I could be wrong.

Stay positive! I ordered on the 30th, changed the order on the 7th and my date changed to January. It shipped on Thursday and should be in my hands on Monday.
 
I ordered a base 27 on the 10th, Processing still (as I expected) and saying 'January'.

If I didn't work odd shifts then I would have chanced finding one in a local Apple store :rolleyes:

Now I have to read both of them, because of OCD. Sigh.
