Mine has arrived about 1 hour ago after a call to tnt!
macbook 2.0ghz White 80Gb HD
now pimped out with 2gb of DDR2 from my dell laptop (oem stuff TMTC marked I bought about 3 months ago from ebay £110 for 2GB!)
flying machine!
dont know about new keyboard yet, but build quality is better than the ibook G4 I used to have, and screen (despite my reservations) is wonderful

If it's out for delivery it is on the way from your local depot to your address...Grats!
That was my report, I got mine this morning!
Just put it up to demonstrate to him that it should be there tomorrow.w00tshadowmoses said:For those of you in the same situation as me, (probably know who you are) I just spoke to TNT (and had a good go at them as to why my MB has been sitting in china for 3 days) and they assured me my MB is in transit to Europe right now and should arrive at Arnham pretty soon, the TNT staff assured me of this even though my tracker has not updated, it should do soon....
So this probably applies to most people who ordered last week but there MB hasnt left Pudong Airport.....
With a bit of luck we may have the MB's by Friday

Thanks
Zerocool84 said:Great news indeed.. Hope that's true tough
Ye so do I as my tracker hasn't updated I am somewhat sceptical....hopefully they weren't fibbing to get me off there back....
Personally though I think they were telling the truth as the lady said her system is shwoing it is now in transit to Europe. And there's update before the online tracker....

Mine hit dublin same time, yours was checked at the airport, mine at the sorting office outside the airport, so....

Our macbooks are probably together. Where are you? I'm in Kerry, so mine has to fly down to Shannon So that's tommorow - maybe if I'm lucky it'll be here on Friday....
We probably are some of the first in Ireland to get them, even though Apple Europe is based here
Oh well keep me informed

Hey! I just received a mail saying my macbook has been sent. If i wanna track it, I only get this info:
"In Transit to Customer - Shipment on Schedule"
Am I going to get more info than this sooner, or do i just have to make my peace with this little intel? And wait for the deliverydude to ring the doorbell?

That's all you will get on applestore status.
We are tracking directly with the couriers own websites.
I've been using mine all afternoon and I'm impressed. I've owned had a laptop before, and had been planning to buy a second-hand one but thought that the MB would be a better long term purchase and waited.
Unfortunately I had to sit in the sunlight all afternoon and the screen coped very well. Better than I did! The only odd thing is that it wouldn't read my Office install disk - but target disk mode solved that! In terms of heat, it is quite hot on the left side but not really hot. The keyboard is just at a nice temperature and I like it for typing.
Tomorrow I'm going to demonstate the MB to one of my colleagues who is thinking of buying a 13-inch Vaio, but on hearing of the MB and BootCamp is suddenly very interested!
And to all who are still waiting, keep your chins up! It is worth the wait!

Me too! This does sound encouraging, although not sure where the "final destination" is - as far as I am concerned that is in my hands and it is not there yet!

That sucks.. But im positive it will be updated later this night or by tomorrow morning...
Using the flextronics checking page (I bought the warrenty - are they delivering it??) I get this:
Mfst: C-52094500 LUT-ELM
Somebody said earlier theirs said LUT-TNT or something like that.
Do you think they might be using an alternative carrier in my case?
On ape code it says:
24 may 06 90 75 truck arrived at final destination CNSHA50 02 jun 06
Any ideas?

There's hope yet... there can be an hour difference between the time they scan different MBs into the system. *crossing my fingers*
