Crikey, your imac is better travelled than I am!

Well hopefully mine will find a more direct route, but i found this earlier in the thread from someone who ordered early October. So i am thinking mine is going to get some air miles as well...

No idea at all... you've just got an idea of where its been, not where its actually now or the route its taking.

I think I was actually better off mentally when I didn't have the tracking info lol

I think I am better off not knowing. I don't want to be in the same place I was last week constantly refreshing the page although I have started doing that again on the orders page hoping that I get a tracking number.

I soooooooooooo want it to be here for Friday. There is nothing worse than when stuff turns up during a working day and all you can do is sit and stare at the box until the end of the day.

Most my photography/video work is of a weekend so I could really do with it by Friday at the latest.

The thought of another god knows how many hours struggling with my old MacBook when theres a nice shiny retina iMac with my name on it sat there waiting round the corner isn't a nice one
 
Well for us people tracking the UK bound flights from Incheon it looks like the next port of call will be Alaska.

Korea Incheon Flights

So by my reckoning Mine will be airborne in the next hour and a half to Alaska ( It was scanned at 2:20pm local time in Incheon for departure ).

I wasn't going to get one but I wanted somewhere to put my router, switch and adsl box where I couldn't see them and this seemed like the best plan. I'm going to try one (some of the reviews aren't very favourable) and if it's ok get a second one.

The have them on the Twelve South website

This tracking information can't be correct as there were no flights from Incheon to HK today...

Also where is the arrival Scan - It just shows a departure!
 
Sighs....stuck in Kentucky...with a bright yellow EXCEPTION notice. Terrible...Guess no chance of a Friday delivery anymore seeing as it still needs to get to California.

LOL...yup but I am guessing that's ok and part of the schedule.
 
Looks like I'm in Kentucky too.
Maybe they can throw some Ale8One in my box while it's chillin' there.
 
Mine must be traveling with everyone else's too. All the same scan and departure times. Mine doesn't say its in Kentucky yet though. :/
