Hope to post some pictures of the beast soon. Hope everyone getting their MPB before the week-end will take time to set it up and enjoy it!

And my bog standard 14” ordered 1st December to Scotland UK and due initially 14th December, and then 16th has now been delayed somewhere in Europe due to a ‘mechanical failure’ and latest estimate 17th December. We will see. UPS are no longer giving away much detail in terms of tracking.

But a short wait compared to many on this thread.

It's here!!! Delivery was supposed to be Dec 22.
Status changed to 'Processing' on Dec 14 and 'Preparing to Ship' on Wednesday, Dec 15. After almost 2 days of stalking DHL and Apple, I decided to stay away. I had text alerts set up and checking the web sites would not make it ship any faster.
Reading posts, worrying about customs holds... just stay away and let it get here. Hopefully by 28th as promised.

Got a text update yesterday, got a couple more today but did not look at the site. Then I thought check again.. it's been 2 days. ? Just then, I got an update saying it was delivered! But the delivery city is not mine - must be the DHL hub. So i'm now wondering if it was delivered to the wrong address.

Went to check and it's here.

The bummer is I've spent the last 90 minutes with several reps at Apple trying to "return" the software and no one knows what to do. This clearly has put a damper on things because I may have to return the entire laptop and order a new one which will take another 2 months.

So glad I will have a weekend to learn it's quirks and features. Was totally worth waiting. Good luck all on all incoming machines to new homes!!!

My similarly configured order from Nov. 4, originally 12/23-12/29 is now February? Hoping for a system error.

I ordered two days after you with the exact same specs and hoping that it at leasts charges my card before the end of the year!

So apparently if your DHL tracking sucks, it may be because it is part of a bigger airway bill number. My status has been in Shipment picked up for 6 days.

Gave DHL a call and managed to get the master airwaybill number out of them.

Turns out my MBP has been to Singapore, Sydney, and has been sitting in the local depot since Friday.

Argh!
 
Looks like someone's messed around with the Google Sheet and most of the rows are missing now.

Anyway, my 16 Max SG 32/64/1 ordered on Nov 5 has finally shipped! Card still shows a pending charge, but I don't care anymore. ?

Delivery to Tokyo from Shanghai, with Yamato Transport.
