See ya later folks, it's been real. If it weren't for some of you guys back on the "Waiting for skylake mpb" i woulda had caved in. Cheers.
contactus.uk@euro.apple.comSo finally got mine. DHL needed me to call to verify the address, and I said I'll pick it up from their office as it's just easier. Call cost me £6.61...
Talked to Apple to reimburse that because of the inconvenience (Which I thought was only fair?). Anyway, they said "No, we can't do that", I could only laugh on a £2500 laptop... So I asked if they could just give me an email address I could write to as I understand they can't really do much on the chat thing. "We don't have an email address" I was told, "You can write to...", again I laugh. The biggest technology company in the world wants me to send them a letter!
I thought it was a pretty reasonable request but apparently not! Had to drive an hour to get it, but at least it's finally here!
Oh this looks so great! From which year is your old model?

Yep I've had 'shipment dispatched' and now this is the second status of 'In Transit to customer' which I can assume (or hope) it's already sat at AMS waiting for customs
I second this. I got the Satechi multiport adapter (without sd card slot) and for quick data exchange with non usb-c devices a Mach Xtreme Barium dual USB stick.Hey, so I've been for searching around for dongles and hubs for quite a good time and I've decided that I'm gonna buy a Satechi USB-C hub that I will take with me and use it wherever I go, as it is small and portable. Then I'll buy an Arc Hub by Bourge Design which I'll place at my desk at home, as I really like it's design and I think it will fit really well as a "table fixed Hub". However the latter one will only be delivered on the first months of 2017.
Here you have the links to their websites so you can have a look.
Satechi: http://www.satechi.net/index.php/type-c-pass-through-usb-hub-space-gray
The Satechi has a usb c port (so you don't lose the one you are giving up for the Hub) 2 USB ports and SD card slots
Arc Hub by bourge design:

This one has 2 USB-C ports, 2 USB ports, 1 HDMI (4K, 30Hz), 1 SD Card slot and 1 Mini Display Port.
Howevwr, If I think I'm missing anything I'll probably buy some Apple dongles, if not I'll search for more hubs; and of course I'm up for any recommendations and other products that any of you know, as it would be of great help too.
I do have a question too; Should I buy an extension cable for my MBP 15" TB charger or can I use a 6 year old one I have at home?
Thank you very much! I hope yours arrives today! Please tell me if it fits and if it goes well Which one did you get?I second this. I got the Satechi multiport adapter (without sd card slot) and for quick data exchange with non usb-c devices a Mach Xtreme Barium dual USB stick.
About the extension cord: I've read similar questions before and the old one should fit. No reason to buy a new one if you don't need the old one. I have two old cables (10 and 6 years) one of which I will use. Have to wait until tonight to see if it really does fit![]()

How would the DHL/Apple tracking change if I really was on that flight?So CZ459 has landed in AMS. Lets see how many of us could have been on this flight
could be sat waiting to clear customs most of the day though
