Yours was BTO?
Shortly after the announcement, I ordered:
11"
8GB RAM
256GB SSD
2.0 GHz
It was still in the processing stage up until today. Took a gamble and walked into my local Apple Store (in SF). They had that exact configuration in stock. Cancelled my order and walked home with a new MacBook Air. The online store checker isn't correct... try going to your local Apple Store.
BTW, it's noticeably faster. Very much so.

I ordered the same exact config you did apparently....mine is still "processing items". Yours changed this morning according to your post.....what part of the country are you in for it to arrive by morning on Friday? I am holding out hope mine can ship in time to get here Friday also. I am in New England region of US.

Just bought the new MacBook Air 13.3" yesterday at the Apple Store in Zurich, to finally replace my Unibody MacBook '08.
Called about 5-6 times to the Apple Store and asked if they already got the shipment, at about 4pm they finally confirmed and I drove to Zurich to get one.
Don't regret it so far, perfect laptop!

I have been looking at the MBA configure page since Monday and the only versions that have shown "In Stock" are the base models. Changing the RAM, the SSD, the processor or any combination has taken it to Ships in 1-3 days. I guess they put more of their BTO combinations in their retail supply chain than in warehouses for online orders.

Same exact configuration and shipping type as me

I ordered the base 13" yesterday and it is scheduled for delivery on friday. Just in time for the weekend!
I actually bought the previous model on day 1, but at the time, I was using it as my primary storage and 128GB was not enough. Now I have a Mac Mini connected to my TV for my videos, so 128GB is fine (currently using 80GB on my 250GB MacBook).
I couldn't bring myself to pay $300 for an extra 128GB drive space. That's a huge difference in price. So the 128GB model should last me until retina 13" is available. My 2008 MacBook is actually still very seaworthy, but I decided I wanted flash storage and a better display. The only bad quality of the original unibody is the rather poor quality LCD inside.

These were just coming into stock at my local Apple store when I was there last night. So so tempting but I stuck with the 1099 model.
