I'm in exactly the same situation

I ordered on the 29th through a friend who works for apple but he forgot to do the order and was only able to get it done on Monday the 31st.

I only got the option to pay with a banktransfer which finaly got through on friday 4th (there was a holiday in between).

My delivery window is 9/12-15/12 and no further info yet, still processing... :(

I know it's still a very long time before our window starts but I'm hoping it will arrive earlier.... I currently still have an old white macbook I bought in 2008

I feel you. My current mid-2010 MBP is not as old but it keeps going into kernel panic every 2 hours and it makes weird noises, so I'm a bit worried the new one won't get here before it dies...

To be fair to them - and I was getting really frustrated on Monday when I'd been stuck at the stage 1 since Friday afternoon - they've shifted these units on rather quickly - Mine only switched over to be delivered today 24 hours ago, and it's been delivered one day before the window of 23rd November-1 Dec I was given and much earlier than the 28th estimated date I was given by Apple last Friday.

Their tracking updates do leave a lot to be desired though - not helped by Apple's decision to treat the EU as not important as the US.

To be fair, I had a delivery window of 16-23 Nov. So it IS making me pissed of that people with a delivery window a week later are receiving the macbook before me. And now they are doing this **** again by using 2 days for just a regular UK->NL delivery. (While those macbooks sent today from NL->UK will be delivered tomorrow).

Glad for you your's was earlier though ;)
 
Finally, at 15:16 DHL express decided to bring me my new MacBook :D:eek::)

Here you can see it sitting on my old 15'' MBP from mid 2010...which can now go into retirement :D

To all of you, who got lucky today: HAVE FUN, I WILL! It was a pleasure sharing this with all of you!
To all the others still waiting: I hope you will get yours soon!

Do you know if there are already arduino boards with USB-C ports? :)

Hey guys,
I ordered a 13 BTO straight after the keynote but I made the huge mistake of paying with SEPA instead of credit card. This way the order registered 5 days later (there was also a sunday AND a national holiday in between) and I got put in the 4-5 weeks, 12-16 December bracket. Somehow it got pushed to 12-15 (?), but it has been stuck in "processing" since then. Has anyone in the same situation had any progress so far? Do you think we will see our Mac before the estimated date?

Thanks!

I am also still in "processing" :(
I hope that most people ordered theirs right on the first day, so the big wave should already be delivered this week. Then there is more capacity for delivering our MacBooks ;)
 
I've just got the DHL details for Amsterdam. How do you go about finding the tracking from China? Thanks for the help!

Have you opened it up, mine was doing that (Mid 2010) sounded like a hard drive crashing. Check the fans aren't clogged up and get the hoover out and give them a good clean.
 
Anybody still here? :)

Just got notification, shipping via DHL Express to Berlin. Estimated arrival 28th Nov (originally 24th - 1st window). Ordered on the 28th. I imagine the 28th is just an estimate Apple gave, based on the last day of the 4 week window. 13" BTO / 3.1 / 16 / 512 / US keyboard.

Yeah I opened it and cleaned the fans (which had been replaced 2 years ago) with canned air, but the noise seems to come from somewhere else, maybe the SSD. I don't care anymore though, as long as it lasts 2 more weeks or so :)

I have a in store pickup so I've been seeing "Shipped to Store" since last thursday and I don't get anymore Information.

What has it been saying before, I'm curious? Just "shippped"?

On the DHL page: Not even that, before that it was only a message from DHL that the information was received, but they were waiting for the package to arrive in Amsterdam.

I think you can use http://www.dhl.com/en/logistics/cus...ng_and_applications/air_freight_tracking.html with your waybill number (got no info on mine just yet)

Where are you getting yours delivered to? We're probably on the same shipment.

Edit: Actually you'll need to get your AWB (Air waybill) by calling Apple CS it seems, the one on DHL's site is just an in-house one.

Not long back home and I am actually typing this on my new MacBook Pro!
For me I think 13" was the right size though I guess 15" wouldn't have hurt.
The keyboard takes some getting used too as sometimes I'm not fully convinced I am holding down the shift key.
I am impressed with the touchbar and Touch ID!
Hopefully I can install all my applications before I head out in a few hours or so.

Just fired up my old 2011 MBP and was fully charged last night when I powered it off, when OS loaded it was reporting 30% battery life so I think this purchase was necessary, but overall I am really impressed with the quality, especially the screen when you sit it side by side with a Macbook as old as mine.

Apple Status switched from Transit to delivery country to "In delivery to costumer - on time" and Apple is indicating the 23th as delivery date. But UPS indicates the 24th and it is still stuck in Cologne for 2 days now ... Anyone having the same problem ? Will it arrive tomorrow ?
 
So, for those of us who've received a 'processed in Amsterdam' status, what is the route we can expect? Miners coming to London, I actually enjoy tracking the journey!

Would they all go Amsterdam to Liepzig next?

Roughly that yeah. If you want to track the flight it's on, you'll need to call Apple CS, ask nicely for the AWB, then punch it into https://dhli.dhl.com/dhli-client/publicTracking

Yeah that's the only "negative" thing I could make out so far. Thing is if you are actually using the laptop it is more than sufficient :) Meaning not holding your head directly over it but instead using a laptop like you normally do.

However I think one of my keys is not working properly, I actually forgot the name. The one over FN, because it seems really inconsistent. Does it work a bit different than on windows machines? Sometimes I can't seem to write large letters...

its called shift key and its supposed to work exactly the same as on a windows machine!

"Status In Transit to Customer- Shipment on Schedule November 21, 2016
Est. Delivery November 25, 2016" - Apple

So mine is a merge order and as yet I have yet to receive a tracking number from any courier. Does the "In Transit" mean it's actually on the way or has it yet to be merged with the adapters?

Anyone else in this position?
