I ordered one on monday night (aussie store) and and email says it has shipped now but the tracking link opens TNT and says "NOT FOUND", and it opens the UK TNT. I'll be amused if there sending it to the UK, and then i'll cry. Think i'll ring them tommorow
Early arrival
Mine was scheduled for arrival Wednesday by 10:30, but made it out for an early delivery attempt yesterday (Monday).
No one was home to sign for it, but I was able to pick it up at the FedEx facility yesterday after work.
Had some trouble with Migration Assistant -- kept loosing the network connection, but on the 4th or 5th try it finally worked, and everything appears to be moved over successfully.

hi guys- last post since i'm gonna go enjoy my new mbp, but here's some details for you all.
so first off, once it goes to fedex (eg package data received), fedex will pump it out of shanghai in 24 hours UNLESS it misses the saturday evening flight. from shanghai, mine went to anchorage, and then to Indiana for customs, where it CAN get trapped. from Indiana, it can either go to Memphis, or there's a possibility it'll go to a distribution site if your city's big enough; i live in CT, so it went to the connecticut center outside of NYC and then arrived here today.
hope that helps.

Where do you get these exact informations about the Macbook Pro`s current whereabout from? When I enter my shipping information page, it only says "In transit to final destination, carrier details will be updated shortly". I live in Germany and ordered it on the 27th of february, btw.

same here, also from Germany. I did extensive searches through the net, and asking on this forum.
It seems that US buyers are able to track their shipment as soon as their units ship. European buyers are not able to do so. You can use https://www.iec-logistics.com/apps/tracktrace/trk_tracking.asp (does only work on IE) but it will not show you much. (choose: Europe, 8xxxxxxx, custom ref.: app)
I´ve said it in a different post: on some other site, they suggested this: apple manufacture --> Kuehne & Nagel to Europe --> Flextronic (IEC) for packing everything in one box (NL) --> TNT or UPS for delivery (trackable).
I called apple. thy told me I will be able to track it as soon it gets hand over to UPS or TNT. Orderstatus on apple page will change.
it is very annoying! I want to know where my new MBP is located!
but there is nothing we can do about it.

Thing is, mine has said "In transit to final destination - carrier details to be updated shortly" since it shipped on Saturday. But shortly implies a few hours or maybe a day, not half a week and counting... Oh the waiting....
I got the 15" 2.4 ghz BUT A 250GB HD and about an hour ago simpletracking was updated to this.

Apple website said it was shipped on March 2nd and with the extra $15 for 2-3 days delivery..it should be here by tomorrow ..FedEX estimate March 16th before 10:30am.. not sure if the 250gb was the reason.
I have opened everything and I am sitting here playing on one of the most beautiful laptops i have ever touched. This is more powerful than my desktop that I will probably find no use for once i get everything transfered over to this one. Just wanted to let you all know that your wait is well worth it... this was a wise decision for all of us!!!!
My MBP is travelling with yours
Mine was stuck in Memphis since Sunday, finally left with yours today on a flight to Mississauga. Too bad I'm in Nova Scotia; I'll have to wait until at least Thursday for it to arrive. Enjoy your new MBP!
Mine has left Anchorage! That's what I'm talking about!
See, the great thing with me is, I'm in Memphis! Once it gets there, it's right at my doorstep!

Mines due to arrive tomorrow, but we're supposed to get around 30cm (12" for US posters) tonight and tomorrow morning, so maybe not ]:
When I checked the status, today, it states prepared to be ship. I was thrilled. I called up 1800-My-Apple and the Cust Svc Lady said I can only track the actual delivery date when I received the email confirmation that the MBP is shipped. I was
Then in the evening, 4.26pm, I received the email notification! 6.30pm, I've got my online invoice. Base on my previous history of receiving the VMWare Fusion, the delivery is quite accurate.
For this time round, it says I would receive mine by 07/03/08! So excited about getting it this Friday....woooohoooo.....
