What i don't understand is that apple didnot made the 2.96 standard

It has left China so I guess the March 25th date might come true. The reseller paid for the quick shipping out of their own pockets...like that made me feel any better knowing that people here have ordered two months later than me and might get theirs a week after :p
Not bitter but I learned something new...dont buy too early.

and stocked their shops with it. I went to the apple store and by accident got the 2.66 (must have been a misunderstanding between me and the sales person). They told me that nearly everybody wants the 2.96.... so why not put them into the sotres??
 
Yeah .... we wouldn't want the two men who lost their lives in a tragic accident standing in the way of you and your laptop :rolleyes: My thoughts and prayers are with those that perished. It definitely puts things into perspective.


This is some cold sh@t right here.

Could someone who's tracked their Mac and received it lately tell me if their package went through Japan? Mine shipped out of Shanghai on the 23rd so I'm hoping it wasn't on that plane. Epic fail if it was.

Oh, I'm sorry you assumed that I would be so thick headed as to not feel bad that two pilots lost their lives in a plane crash. Seeing as this was a thread about shipments I just assumed that asking if anyone knew the delivery path of Fedex from Shanghai to the US would be ok and since I'm at work I typed a quick post to ask and posted an article so people would know. Next time I'll make sure I'm on my break so I can type more and you won't get so bent out of shape. My apologies.
 
Hey guys, finally got Kuehne & Nagel carrier + tracking number but it doesn't work. Any idea? It starts with RTML00....
 
I got mine in 4-5 days from Japan or wherever theyre sent from to Ireland was lightning fast. Cant believe people are still waiting. I've mine two and a half weeks.

Well worth the wait for those who are still waiting though. ;)
 
I placed my order (customised with anti-glare & 7200rpm drive) last night around 6pm and received "order shipped" email today just after 1pm... now that's quicker than I expected!! :)
 
finally my second order got to UK distribution center. I hope to get it by wednesday the latest :)
 
lol, my tnt widget told me "shipping soon". Funny how those widgets are faster than Apple's page and TNT tracking :))
 
Finally!

The day has finally arrived!
Can anyone tell me how to check what rpm my internal drive is please?
 
My shipment Left Guangzhou, CN on March 22 11:14PM and now shows a shipment exception at Narita-Shi JP as of March 24th 12:32AM - local scan time.

So it does seem likely that many shipments from China to the US go thru Japan.

Very saddened to see that two people lost their lives.

I don't know what to expect next...
 
Did yours arrive via TNT?

Their truck just pulled up out the front. My heart skipped a beat. Nothing to drop off tho.

I picked it up from my reseller directly but TNT was delivering it to them. It was because of them that I received so late.

I do believe that TNT is the main courier for Apple products...

Now to install windows on my macbook so I can play Team Fortress 2!
 
How often does Fed-Ex update their tracking information? My Macbook Pro shipped from Shanghai on March 23rd at 12.32 AM EST and nothing has been updated since.

Same here, mine has the same info. Think maybe the volcano in alaska has our shipments delayed? I heard they grounded a lot of flights because of the ash in the atmosphere making it difficult to fly.

Yeah, we must definitely be on the same plane. Mine is scheduled to be delievered on March 26th. I got the 2-3 day shipping if that makes any difference. If I get any update with Fed Ex, I'll let you know. Likewise if you can do the same! Thanks
 
Ok, mine got delivered. So far no issues. Will pop up a bit later if I find something.
