Here is the proof that some folks asked for. Not sure why this is such a big deal. I only changed the Ship to , Bill to , area.

BTW you might consider it a 3k toy but there are people out there that actually base their work around these machines and it actually matters to them when they get them.

Not sure if you read my post or not but I'm actually a customer that depends on apple products to make a living. Did you really think that Apple was going to somehow magically stockpile a new product, while still manufacturing the rest of their line in quantities large enough to meet the launch day demand of every single person that ordered one?? What, and then cram all of those onto one giant magical unicorn fedex plane and drop them down everyones chimney the next day like its freekin christmas??? Your expectations are skewed...

Long story short. If you really needed it that bad you should have ordered as soon as the store was back. Guess what. Those people already have their rMBP's. If you waited, Apple told you when to expect it.

When apple misses that deadline, then by all means raise hell.
 
So I'm at a friend's graduation party and they have a sideshow and music playing on the tv. I'm just sitting there and suddenly I spot what it's coming from...and it's beautiful. First time I've seen one in person. This isn't making the wait any easier.

I'm wondering whether enrolling in AppleCare (or adding other add-on items) during the time of ordering will speed up the process, no? :)
 
Well after the Anandtech review I'm more eager to get my hands on this (for the wrong reasons at the moment :() to see how bad the scrolling lag is under lion and whether I can find it tolerable. That said I tried it at the Apple store and noticed none of the said problems. Maybe I'm just use to sucky scrolling, haha.

If not I think it will be a very sad and angry shipment back to Apple.

16th - 20th July delivery time, hopefully I can get it by the first week in July rather than that looong estimate. (ordered 15th June).

My whole point is that they should not have been pushing the "Shipping Today" aspect. They obviously new they had limited quantities on hand and these would sell like crazy. They should have said "Limited Quantities available today" or simply just said "Shipping Next week" and allowed more stockpile and less frustrated customers.
 
Be nice, I was able to get it for free + made them throw in a thunderbolt Ethernet adapter for free.

I originally ordered stock 2.3 within first hour after store came online. But when I found memory is soldered, I cancelled the order and placed new order on 12th with 2-3 weeks (July 3 - 10 delivery)

I did the exact same thing...and have the same dates as you!
 
It just updated now? When did you check it last... Kinda weird that there processing this stuff at 6:30 am on Sunday... But I'm not complaining ..

No, checked it late last night (still processing), then just before I posted.
 
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY MY MBP HASN'T SHIPPED YET?!

I am totally going crazy right now and I just want closure. I ordered this mother on 6/11 5pm EDT. Just 3 hours after the online store came back up. 3 HOURS!

And everyone gets theirs before mine. Whats going on here?

I got the 2.3/8/256 with education discount btw.

why the hell haven't you gotten one in store?
 
I'm thinking about canceling my order..I want the 2.6/16/512 but I don't want to go to the end of the line..decisions decisions.
 
In fact this is true...
it doesn't make sense to me though you ordered on the 15th...

I'm still "processing" same exact specs and ordered 3 days before you... what the ****...

If it helps, I am processing too :| Ordered on the 11th at 8PM CST, 2-3 weeks, delivery 29th-6th .... BTO 2.6/16/512.

Others already got shipment confirmation and for me it is stuck. At least my CC got charged today in the morning, so I can hope that it was shipped, but system was not updated :|
