Yeh I hear you. I'm not happy about TNT either nor about the fact that Apple don't offer expedited shipping in Oz. I spoke to TNT and found out Apple use "economy" or the cheapest kind which ~1 day slower than "normal". For a premium product such as the MacBook Pro, I would expect Apple to use premium shipping also - even if it is free.

FYI here is my parcel trace for you in case you find it useful. The "error" probably cost me a day (so would have gotten it Friday otherwise). Most anoying was that Apple "shipped" it Monday but it didnt get picked up by TNT until 24 hours later.

Was pretty much keeping pace, although the frequency of those updates along the way leaves alot to be desired compared to other courier companies (IMO)...

Hey! Mine was delivered about an hour ago. Unfortunately i'm at work so i will have to wait until i get home :eek:
Click to expand...
Mine should arrive today but .. I'm at work so I will have to stare at the box the whole day :) (it's delivered to my work)
 
mine's getting close! its just outside toronto, but its status is "clearance in progress" which, from some other posts i've seen, can take a while.

i was wondering, since i'm always at work during delivery hours, does anyone have experience with what ID is needed to pick it up after work? My driver's license has not yet been updated with the shipping address, do I need to have like my lease or something as proof of address?

thanks!
 
My status just changed to "SHIPPED"!! But still, I couldn't trace my MBP :( How long will they take to fly from Shanghai to Singapore? :p
