This is almost hilarious... I think this will be the last time I order directly from Apple's webstore, there has been many basic models in stores many days now. Next time I'll get one from there and update with custom SSD/memory.

Now, how to get to Finland from Germany...? Was that east or west...?

Whatever man, let's try west. :rolleyes:

Have a great (short) trip to Denmark MBP!
 
Germany!

What is going on in Germany? Anybody know what the delay is? My pro has been sitting in Germany since 11.34pm last night (UK time) ..........it's coming to the UK. :(

Ha ha...FedEx said delivery on March 8th but today...


On FedEx vehicle for delivery :D :D :D
 
Ordered my CTO MBP on the Wednesday the 2nd March :

2.2GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7
4GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB
750GB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400
8x Double-Layer SuperDrive
MBP 15"HR Antiglare WS Display

Ships: 3 business days
Delivers: 09/03/2011

I am in Perth Australia so I think a 7 day build and delivery time for a custom ordered MBP is pretty good...

Ah sweatshop efficiency.

waiting, waiting, waiting....
 
^ Damn.
So frustrating, late orders and fast deliveries.
Ordered my 15" on the 24th, have to wait till 3/11.
Still no tracking number. Want to see where my MBP is. Takes to damn long.

I'm sorry man, but I'm going to have to be a hater! I purchased mine the day after the announcement. It's just the 15" 2.2i7 AG. Apple screwed up with the payment and I had to call them and see what the deal was. I got an email saying my CC was declined. I have a $10k limit on my cc! I called Discover and they said it was approved and it was pending on Apple's side. Apple said, ummm I don't know what happened. Anyhow I spent the extra $18 for expedited shipping and I'm not going to have it until the frekkin 8th of March! I'm glad you are getting your early, but I'm screwed without a laptop for a week and a half because Apple screwed up. Has this happened to anyone else, or am I just lucky?

Ouch. I ordered 2hrs after the store opened and won't get mine until Monday - the 11th would be unbearable for me. Shipping UPS or FedEx?
 
mine has been stuck in this phase for over 12 hours now.

int'l shipment release
MEMPHIS, TN

anyone else?
 
Just got my 17" BTO Anti-Glare 7200RPM

Screen looks great! Except I have a fair a few scuff marks on the body where I guess a machine dug into the aluminum. My keyboard lights appear even though and I'm happy to have it here finally.

Mine too. I checked yesterday's shipments and those left memphis around 4 hours from now. We're probably getting them tomorrow.
 
Ordered mine on Feb. 28th

Shipping status as of last night March 2 from Shanghai

Expected Delivery by March 9

BTO options were the 2.3 GHz processor, High-Res Glossy, and the 7200RPM HDD.

Weight is 4.7kg or about 10.3 lbs

Don't know. Didn't saw shipping options while ordering (from iPhone) and haven't had any further delevery info. I guess it will be UPS for me (Netherlands). Maybe I call Apple tomorrow to ask if they have a tracking number for me.
 
Mine arrived today (in the uk) - one day ahead of the expected date - that's even with the day it waited in Germany. So pretty good really.

And the machine is incredibly fast. Just posted a geekbench score of 10300 (and that was with Windows installing in Parallels in the background) http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/370658
