Well, I talked to them several times. Most of them were polite but NOT useful and one was not respectful and blamed me for customizing a MBP rather than purchasing ready-to-ship :) Anyway, the nice ones are all in agreement with us but they do not have any additional information than we can see on our order statuses!!! They do not have any connection to China and they cannot tell. They say it will be delivered within the time frame and they do not care when it ships. Although I have 2 days shipping, they actually state on the order status that the delivery estimate is from Apr 27 (tomorrow :)) - May 3 which should not bel like that if it took the full 7 business days and 2 business days shipping. I really hate that!! By the way, one of the agents said that you cannot blame anyone as these are ESTIMATES and things can happen, so it is not guaranteed delivery!!.

What do you think, guys? Apple is nice!

With the tens of thousands that are being made and shipped I think they are doing a pretty good job. Once it goes "Prepared..." you could see it on your doorstep in two days or it could take many more. I ordered one on the 13th (launch day) and it was in my hands on the 21st at 0930. I didn't care for the anti-glare and ordered a glossy and it's taking a little longer. I have been watching this post since day one and there is plenty of time to get it to you by the third (unless you live in Canada and it switches from FedEx to UPS). Hope that helps.
 
I called apple today to see if they give me a better estimate. I was told that right now, they're usually arriving 1 day ahead of the last day of the ETA. So my delivery window is stated as Apr 30 - May 6th, and it's likely i'll get it on the 5th.

Ordered on the 22nd, around noon pacific, a CTO MPB 15" i7 8GB Ram 500GB HD, HR anti-glare.

waiting hurts so much.
 
Guess what, guys?! Mine is prepared for shipment just right now :) I will let you know once it ships and when I receive it! I have been non-productive for a couple of weeks waiting for it and checking order status :D
 
Order Date: Apr 19, 2010 at 11:48 AM PDT
MBP 15.4/2.66/500GB @ 7200/HR GLOSSY

Just changed to prepared for shipment.

Any idea how long it actually takes to ship from this point?

Mine was originally quoted as Apr 26-30 (ordered on the 16th) and according to Fedex it's scheduled to arrive on the 29th, so it sounds like that Apple rep may have known what he was talking about.

i hope so!

my last delivery date is may 3rd (monday) meaning that if all works out and there are no delays, i could have it this friday! but i feel like i'm stretching it by expecting it on that date. i'll just hold out for this monday to avoid major weekend disappointment.

If you don't get a "received after FedEx cutoff" it should be in Anc or Mem tomorrow then to you the next day. Otherwise add a day.
 
Mine Finally says Prepared for Shipping.

Ordered on the 13th 12:30 PDT

2 QTY 17" i7 7200 Rpm 500gb drive, Matte Screen. 2 weeks of crazy waiting. Now how long will it take to get to Idaho.

This is weird. Mine show shipped. When I check on the fedex site, it does not show anything from China. It shows it is shipping from Rancho Cordova, CA and I will have it tomorrow. Has this happen to anyone?

They may have stock of that particular configuration
 
Hallelujah! The status has finally changed to prepared for shipment! I have the expedited shipping so I hope it can arrive to ON Canada by friday, I desperately need the computer otherwise I'm screwed. Anyone here get a shipment to the GTA and if so how long did it take? Any info would help a lot! Hope everyone gets their MBPs asap.
 
Ordered April 19th at 10AM EST and just received notification a half hour ago that my laptop has been shipped! Joy!

So my estimated shipping date is May 4, when Apple said May 3. I don't really care at this point. I'm just happy it's on its way.

I am in the same exact boat with you and I am too very afraid from weekend disappointment. What is your location? Please, keep me updated when you get a delivery date?

What shipping method did you use? I have expedited so hopefully it'll be here before the 4th :(

I'm in Lake Worth, FL. :) and of course!

Standard. I was cheap and didn't want to pay the extra $18 despite dropping over two grand a few minutes earlier :D
 
So why did I pay for 2-3 day shipping, and was that it was going to ship in 2-3 days or once it ships it will take 2-3 days to get to me?

I saw earlier in the thread a bunch of est. 2-4 days shipping Why are my est. 5-7?
