Does anyone know if FedEx tries to deliver to your home once even if you requested a hold at at FedEx faculty of your choosing? Also does anyone know if a someone other than the person who's name is on the box can go to the facility and pick it up (and sign as apple requires) on behalf of the person it was shipped to (such as a family member)?

If you're lucky you can drive out to the depot they might be open, and you can pick it up from there.
 
Dear All,

I am so excited. Ordered the 2.7Ghz/768GB/16GB BTO on July 19. Says: Delivers 16/08/2012 - 21/08/2012 by Standard Shipping

I pray I get the Samsung screen. Have bin to various Apple Resellers to check the MBP-R out, and run the terminal code on all of them to detect the screen manufacture. I could guess on forehand already which one was the LG screen and which one was the Samsung. The Samsung is more defined, sharp and vivid. The only Retina I saw the ghosting effect was one out of six and that one had a LG screen.

Please tell me which screen you have once you receive yours.

5 out of 6 MBP-R's I've seen had the Samsung screen btw.

Yeah.... Today changed to "prepared for shipment. Ordered the 16th of July.

:eek:

Jesus!! man tomorrow is going to be 2 weeks and its still processing :(

I ordered on 7/22 and at the time ETA was 1-2 weeks, I'm staring to worry about it not arriving at all!! :mad:

Mine shipped exactly on the last day of the second week.
Went from preparing for shipment to shipped within 8 hours, don't worry.
That's the impatience talking.

EDIT: Ordered on the 19th of july.

Thanks for replying.
What are yours specs, where did you order it from and where do you live?

I admit it's impatience talking but I can't understand why some get theirs first while others wait long to get one!

2,6/8/512GB Are my specs, and I live in the netherlands. Well for starters I know for a fact that people in the united states get their models first, because that's Apple's market. All other countries depend on the demand for that specific country/continent.
