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

No problem. Yeah mine has the same delivery date so they are probably on the same plane. I'll keep you posted when I hear something.
 
It looks like I finally got an update. It says at local fedex facility in Shanghai. I guess I am under the impression that it is still hasn't left yet although it says on March 23rd that the package left Shanghai. It still says that package is on schedule.
 
Update: put stress test on 9600 got it to 80 degrees celsius and left it there for an hour. No display issue or fan issue. Everything is perfect so far
 
On schedule to take delivery tomorrow before 10:30am. I finally get to retire my 2.5 year old Blackbook.. :D:D:D:apple:
 
guys, when I got the laptop today I noticed that my battery's health was 97% and had 1 cycle. Is it eventually gonna go back to 99-100% or this is it? Also, would you consider it for exchange or is it quite normal?
Also, what would be the best way to sync my itunes and iphoto library with my mac pro? Is there a way or do i have to manually copy (through airport+ext. hdd for example)

Thanks for any help
 
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.
Mine was on that plane. I heard about the crash but didnt know where it happened. I saw the delayed beyond our control in my FedEx tracker so I called Customer Support. They confirmed.
The reseller also confirmed that they are receiving a ton of 2.6ers which Im not interested in. They will lend me a 15inch to tie me over till mine comes in.

My condolences to the families that lost their loved ones :(
 
Finally gotten some info about my order, they are SAYING that they are going to ship it tomorrow/friday. With arrival to me in like 8 days.
So hopefully sometime like 8-13 april it will arrive.

the website still shows 9 Mars as delivery date...:/

My MBP got stuck in Changhai for 3 days. Today, Fedex wrote "Delivery
Exception - Delay beyond our control". Looks like it is "in transit" again.
It's going to North American

That's exactly what I have: It was in Shanghai for 3 days. It said last night Delay beyond our control and now the most current status is "In Transit". Fed Ex hasn't changed the expected delivery date of tomorrow so I am still holding out that I will get it tomorrow. It still says "On Schedule".

Reseller emailed me:

Dear Apple Customer / Cher client, Chère cliente Apple,

The following products shipped on 03/25/2009. Transit time will
depend upon whether you have chosen standard or premium freight
options. If your order is shipping standard freight, it should arrive
within 12 days of shipment.

In the UPS tracking it states March 27th.
I still feel bad how this all came to be :(
 
Fed Ex is still telling me that it's on schedule to be delivered to me tomorrow even though it just shipped out of Shanghai 7 hours ago. I am wondering when or if Fed Ex is going to tell me that it will not be delivered to me tomorrow.

So you talked to Fedex? I was thinking of calling and see if they told me something different from what my tracking quote says.

No, I haven't talked to Fed Ex. I am just reading what is online via the Fed Ex tracking number. What does your package status say online on the Fed Ex website?

Same as yours, in transit from Shanghai, CN. Estimated delivery date is March 26 by 10:30 AM
 
Dont worry guys it will be delivered tomorrow, but it may actually depend how close you live to Indianapolis. My mac is on the same flight from china right now, it will land in Anchorage in about 3-4 hours and ship out to Indiana a few hours after that. As long as it hits Indianapolis by 2 a.m. est it will be delivered that day unless you live extremely far from it. Living in Milwaukee I expect ot be deliverd on time, Thursday before 10:30am. I'm basing this all off the time stamps of my previous uMBP that i had to send back. This is the replacement. My last 3 fedex orders including my last uMBP were delivered a day earlier than the estimate so it looks like this one will actually come when they say it will because of the delay.
 
Yeah, exactly the same. I'll be shocked if it delivers tomorrow.
As Ive stated in my earlier post, Apple did a quick turn-around at getting me my special config (2.93 and 320@7200) due to the tragedy in Japan.
however this time around their sending it via UPS and slated for a Friday March 27th delivery. At this point Im just happy Im getting it. I ordered it back in Jan 15th thru a reseller :p.

I live in NY. You think it will be close enough to Indy?

Thanks for all the info. Think mine probably won't make it until Friday most likely. I live in Biloxi which is about an hour from New Orleans. Don't think I'm close enough to Indy for it to make it on the 26th.
 
Hi All! Mac Book Pro set to ship 3/26!

I have been driving myself crazy checking FedEx (Thumbnail), to see when my MacBook Pro will arrive. And it keeps saying it's still in China. And it's suppose to be delivered tomorrow morning, according to FedEx, "Mar 26, 2009 by 10:30 AM". I didn't think it would make it for tomorrow. So I called FedEx and after talking to a few people, I finally got someone at FedEx International who told me that my package was in the air and would arrive this evening in Anchorage, AK. And I would get it in the morning on schedule.

I hope that is true!! I ordered my MBP on March 19 and it's been pure torture since then lol. I am excited, having been a PC user all my life, I am hoping for the best with the MBP. :)

By the way, I live in New York.

You're not alone...I've been getting that samething when I go to the Fed Ex tracking website. I ordered mine on March 12th so you're lucky you're getting yours so quickly! That's great news if you called Fed Ex and they said it will be delivered on time tomorrow. I wasn't sure if mine would be coming tomorrow or not either.

Wow, the 12th of March? I feel for you! That is what the Rep told me. I asked her if there would be any delays and she said no. Hopefully we will both get it tomorrow!

It's suppose to come in the morning...too bad I will be at work and have to wait until the evening when I get home to use it. :-(

Keeping my fingers crossed!

lol Feb 1st here, that would be almost 8 weeks. Altough I did get on defective machine so far, so I guess atleast i got to touch one. Guess i should be happy i got to do that. Oh and im changing my tune on us getting ours tomorrow guys. My mac is supposedly on a plane on its way to Anchorage as I type this according to fedex. They wouldnt be able to get it to me by tomorrow if they flew supersonic directly to my apartment and dropped it from 30000 feet.:mad:
