I ordered a 2.4GHz 17" with 750GB 7200-rpm drive and AG display on Monday (Oct 24) too - it was shipped yesterday (Oct 26) but hasn't left Shanghai yet :/

I ordered one yesterday and got same day shipping notification. Maybe your spec is out, ie mine was anti glare , etc.

I order lots of new MBP's. Sometimes it just takes a day or so for the status to be updated. It's independent of the actual order/build/ship routine that Apple does so well. I wouldn't be concerned. My experience reveals about four to five working days total. Therefore I deliberately place my online order on a Sunday, and the computer arrives Thursday or Friday. That's a CTO / BTO order. STD in stock configs come faster.
 
Still processing for me...

Ordered Monday morning (Oct 24). 15" 2.4GHz Anti-Glare model. I waited for the refresh bump, now waiting for shipment, starting to get impatient :)

me too XD

I actually ordered on the 20th, the previous Thursday. They informed me on Tuesday that my order was getting upgraded due to the refresh which took place on Monday. That is definitely good news, but as of now, it is still processing.....due for Nov.1st~3rd.

Hopefully it gets shipped today....

Edit: forgot to mention that mine is a CTO build too: 2.4GHz, 4GB Ram, 750GB 7.2k RPM HDD, HiRes Glossy

wow, lucky you!! Yeah, it must be the custom parts that are taking so long :p

Oh well, I am just grateful that they are upgrading my order with no hassle.

Gratz on your new MBP, btw.

wow, lucky!!

My order was placed earlier, exact same build too haha. Oh well!!


Speaking of which, mine is still processing, the strange thing is that I just checked my status again this afternoon, and my estimated delivery date went from Nov.1st~3rd to Oct.31st~Nov.~2nd.

Pretty weird if you ask me. Still no idea why my order is taking so long.. :p
 
Now my delivery time went from today-nov 1 to nov 3 - 7 what is going onnn?
 
Mine is delayed as well

Delivery date has been changed from Oct 27 - Oct 31 to Nov 4 -8.

They sent an email saying:

Due to an unexpected delay, we now anticipate shipping the following
item(s) as follows: / Compte tenu d'un délai non anticipé, nous devons
malheureusement reporter l'expédition de votre commande comme suit :


Z0NM, MBP 15.4/CTO
Ships by / Expédié le 1 - 3 business days
Delivers by / Livré le 4 Nov - 8 Nov

We regret any inconvenience this delay may cause. / Nous sommes désolés
de l'inconvénient que ce délai pourrait vous causer.

Who knows what is delaying them, could be unibody manufacturer, or other parts.
 
bc.91 & Spee,

hey guys, I just got the exact same e-mail and that my order delivery date was pushed to the 8th(of Novemeber) as well.

So I decided to give them a call about it since I actually placed my order on the 20th, about a week ago. The CS lady was very apologetic and told me there was some unforeseen circumstances overseas, but she would upgrade my shipping from standard to expedited and assured me that my order would arrive on the 7th at the very very latest.

So, I guess, give them a call and they should give you expedited shipping at no additional cost.

Cheers!
 
Update: just received shipping info. in my e-mail from Apple

So I tracked on Fedex and it says estimated delivery by 12:00PM, Nov.2nd and that the package has already left Shanghai.

GL to all, cheers!!
 
Just got mine!!

The expedited shipping is pretty impressive!! Apple shipped it on the 29th and it's already here (Nov.1st 10:30AM ish)

Gotta say, I am loving this new machine!!

GL to everyone!! Hope you guys get yours soon too!

Ordered mine on oct. 30 and apple says it will not ship till nov. 25. I'm in Taiwan but not sure why it will take so long. Before the update they were shipping in 24 hrs. Maybe there are none in Taiwan. Maybe it's coming on a slow boat from china. If so FedEx must be swimming it over. Ha. I ordered the baseline 13. I haven't owned a Mac laptop since my iBook se. I'm using an eeepc now.
