Why do you think anyone would be waiting for their MBPs to ship when everyone is waiting for the new MBPs to be announced?

Cause we got tired of waiting...or like me...for other reasons.

Which reminds me...mine went to "Prepared for shipment" just this evening!

Same here!!! So from everyone's experiences, exactly how "accurate" is this Standard Shipping 5-7 business days thing before receiving your product? Is it truly 5-7 days? I don't want to wait that long!!!

Area51... we are close neighbors...

Actually...I picked the 2-3 day shipping :) I figured if I was spending $3k on something...$15 was nothing :p
 
:DYeah, that's true... but I college budget doesn't go very far. I should have done it anyways cause I want it NOW!!! Oh well, I'll just apply that $15 towards Fusion or something.
 
Yeah...I haven't quite started school yet, so I've still got the workin "guy's" budget. :)

Though people are offering to do things for me, and I'm like "well if you really want to do something for me, you can donate to the 'Buy Brenden Logic Studio' fund." :D
 
shipping was bumped to feb 20-22

i've had a replacement 2.2 MBP on order, and it originally said "ships by feb 13-15". well, it didn't ship. so i checked this morning and it says, "ships by feb 20-22". maybe that's a good sign for the new MBP's?
:D

When did you ordered yours? I ordered mine this past week and have mine shipping already.
 
brandon.vong,

Have you gotten tracking number for your MBP yet? Curious as to if they actually sent it or is it still in "Prepared for shipment"?

tuesday... but, i also sent an email to my apple rep and told her that i heard new mbp's might be coming out and i would prefer a new one rather than an older model.
:rolleyes:

I have a tracking number. It went out this past Friday from Shanghai. I'm ready! Bring it on cause my current battery on my PB is craptacular.
 
Hmm... should I have done the same? :confused:

i don't know. apple is bending over backwards to make me happy though. this is the second replacement for defective mbp's that i've had. i've had two mbp's and about 16 repairs so far. :eek:

maybe they're just being kind to me because of all the hassle i've had.
 
oh, and mine's a custom order: larger hard drive.

so, maybe they've still got some already built ones in stock that they're trying to get rid of.

i agree, it really makes no sense to order a 2500 dollar computer when everyone knows that it will be updated within 2 weeks and then all of the people who just got their 2 week old mbp's will have buyers remorse and ask if they can
Return them for the new model. How many times have we seen this?

Sorry dude for all of the crap you have had to deal with. At least you are giving many members hope of an imminent update on the 26th or whatever?
 
Well mine missed the shippment for Friday by 30 minutes :( So now it shows an estimated delivery date of Wed.

Mine shipped out on Friday and had an estimated arrival date for Wednesday as well but I just checked the status and it's in Oakland, CA!!! So HOPEFULLY I'll get it by Monday... or Tuesday... but preferebly on Monday. I love new toys. :D

I'm hoping for next Tuesday, but who knows? I'm happy to give others hope. Honestly, if they give me a new MBP - and it works - I will consider it even with Apple. This has been my first experience with Mac computers, and so far it's been a little rocky, though I still wouldn't go back to PC (couldn't if i wanted to - all my software is for Macs now ;) )

I actually ordered this one because I DON'T want the new one. I don't think I could stand it if it had that new keyboard that the Macbook and the Air have.


Btw...it left Anchorage just a few hours ago!
 
Mine is supposed to ship on the 20th, ordered friday.

new 2.2, 250hdd. standard everything else.

Same im having fears about the keyboard also, i think it more than likely will happen but i hope it doesnt. I think one of the things that makes the macbook pro look as good and professional as it looks is the keyboard, the curves to the keys and the fact that there arent spaces between them just makes it look more professional and better. Im going to wait until the new machine comes out and if the new one has the macbook keys ima rush to the store and buy the 2.4 current gen. Ill sacrifice a slight speed increase for the keyboard i like so much better.
