Mine shipped just after 8:00 tonight (Shanghai time). I ordered at 12:41 PST. I was quoted 3-5 days on the order checkout. I paid for standard shipping but I called to talk to applecare about canceling so I could buy a unit in store. He then said they wouldn't have the 2.8 w/ 7200 combo and upgraded me to free shipping. I didn't even ask he just offered it. I converted to Apple in 2006 and have had several great customer service experiences and 1 drawn out really bad one that worked out in the end.
