This estimated time which Apple provides is just a joke. I ordered on 27th of October and got I estimated delivery between 23rd and 30th of November. On 11th of November I was charged (money blocked at CC).
Now on 23rd of November (week after expected shipping time - as I was in 2-3 weeks) my order changed state to Shipped and estimated time was updated to.. 5th of December!
I know I wanted Apple to send me 1 package (MBP and a dongle) but they known this from the begining!
In meanwhile Apple at 23rd of November tried to charge my CC for a second time! And when I asked them about it they told me that at first my MBP was to be sent sooner but due to some internal decision that MBP was delivered to someone else and I got pushed back in the queue. - just great.
So now I've learned a lesson - Never preorder from Apple any more!
maby yours was the same spec as tim cook wanted
