This is so exciting!

Same here, except I ordered one with a non-glare display. Tomorrow the seven days would be over...
We will see.
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?
Just got my shipment notification and tracking number. According to FedEx it will be delivered by May 3rd...at the end of Apple's estimated delivery time (Apr 27 - May 3). And in case anyone was wondering, I got the "Package received after FedEx cutoff" message (bummer).
FYI: I found out my tracking number already, even though Apple hasn't emailed the shipping confirmation yet. For FedEx, it's the 10-digit phone number without spaces/punctuation that you provided when you ordered (thanks, Google!).
Apple also has about 1, 1.5 hours to get today's shipment to FedEx if they want to make today's flight. Otherwise, I guess it'll take 3 days instead of 2? *shrug*

I am trying to give myself a hope. I think that international shipment are FedEx Express and they also deliver on Saturdays, right? Will this help us in any way? I paid 2 days shipping. I am not sure if this will help me or thye did not care
Really? Because my first one came with a 12 digit tracking number that wasn't anywhere close to my phone number AND unless you know the route your computer is taking, there is more than one route (flight) that your computer can take to get to you.
I got the dreaded "Package received after FedEx cutoff" message. ETA is now on the 3rd (by 10:30am), but maybe it'll come earlier since this is there too:

Why did you go from Glossy to Anti-glare? I ordered and received exactly what you ordered but shipped it back on the 21st and am now waiting fo the i7 glossy because I decided I wanted the glass screen.
There are two numbers in the FedEx tracking system: the tracking number (which is the 12 digit number you get from Apple) and the reference number (an identifier Apple assigns to your package for its reference). Apple happens to use your phone number as the reference number, which you can enter in at https://www.fedex.com/AltRefTracking?cntry_code=us to look up your package before getting the email.
As for the actual route it takes, I guess we'll find out over the next few days.![]()
F... I received the same in tracking information ""Package received after FedEx cutoff" message". Don't those people care about sending it the right time. Believe me, they do not. They just told you a time frame and they gonna make use of the whole of it. BE PATIENT. I think that is their theme!!
I will have weekend disappointment
ordered CTO 15" i7 8GB 500GB HD HR Anti-glare on the 22nd at noon.
It still hasn't changed to "prepared for shipping" or anything... but apple just charged my card! So that has to be good
Has anyone tracked how long it takes from charging the credit card to prepare for shipping?
I ordered my 17" CTO MacBook Pro the 16th of April and the estimated delivery date is 03 - 04th May 2010. Today is the 28th of April, still not shipped.
