Have you called Apple like I said earlier? Complaining without finding why would be waste of your posting.

I agree wholeheartedly. But I am sure sometime next week I will have my MBP.**fingers crossed**
I did call apple and there really isn't any explanation as to why I haven't even had my card charged yet or given a preparing to ship status. The rep said that "some computers were config'd differently". I told her that mine wasn't really any different than some of the models that have shipped or are "preparing to ship". Her reply was, I am sorry but we don't have any updated information at this point.
Mind you I was very polite and didn't throw fit. Her demeanor was professional.
Screen is fantastic. My 15" looks a little yellowish compared to it.
Just drained the battery all the way. I got 4 hours out of it out the box on normal use (3D rendering, benchmarks, web browsing, copying and installing crap). I'll see how long it takes to recharge and drain again from 100%.
I also have a 64GB Magnum, I was getting about 29MB/s read and 14MB/s write on my 15". New machine getting 34~37MB/s read and 16MB/s write.

Yeah, I've posted what they've said twice. The first time the lady told me that no 17" macbook pro's have been shipped and wont be shipped until the 19th.
The second guy told me that there is nothing he can see wrong with my order and I should wait until the 19th which is what my ship date says. I told him that people who ordered close to a month AFTER me have had theirs shipped and he said there is nothing they can see or do about it. He repeated that they ship orders in the order they are received like 10 times but obviously that's not the case.Yeah, I've posted what they've said twice.

dude, i totally feel for you. i went through the same bs with apple last year. i was so frustrated over the whole experience i swore i'd never pre-order from them again. and here it is a year later and i still can't get enough.
Finally a "Prepared for shipment" status change to my Jan. 17th order. Woohoo...it's just a matter of time.
You have one guess to determine what that means. Just one. If you can't guess what it means, you lose!
It means, the shipper (Apple), tended the shipment (your 'Book), after the latest pick up time (FedEx cutoff time).
i knew that. The question is why? Wait they didn't send it out in time? I had a fear that something was wrong with the credit card
Or something.
Yes! It's Shipped!
I received my shipping email today, ordered 10th Jan (2.66GHz version with 7200RPM HD). What I don't understand is the current delivery status part on the tracking page, it says schedule on time 21st Feb... does it mean I will receive it on 21st? I don't get it!

Why does that page look different then all others? What site is that off?
I think that can be considered as heavy usage!
BTW,I think you must open a new thread...

Ok, mine is just around the corner then (order date 1/22). Was yours due for shipment the 19th as well?
Relax dude, you'll live longer! The truck, taking the 'Books from the factory to the shipping point (local office, docks, whatever-ever), didn't get there in time. Happens all the time.
Ehh not really. Heavy usage for me is when both cores are at 100% for a good period of time and it burns a whole through your desk.
Battery has been plugged in for about 1:45, says another 1:30 to full.
Battery was about 60% out the box.
Fine fine, no more updates here, sorry.

Mine looks identical (in UK) with same dates & I don't know what the 21st refers to either. Do UPS deliver on Saturdays? I doubt it. Hopefully we'll get the tracking number tomorrow & get to know more. (I have same spec apart from 2.93 & revised order date of 13 Jan).
Ok,I understand!
BTW,I asked you to open new thread cos I think "this is quite big" and deserves it's own thread
I have a question since mine is in transit...
I ordered AppleCare with mine, and that said it had completed a while ago although there was never any "shipping." I'm assuming it is coming with the MacBook Pro as they were both from the same order? I'm just confused as to why it doesn't show the AppleCare in the shipping confirmation email...
You can sell people AppleCare so it's something physical right?? I feel like a
n00b but I never really thought about it loll

Cool, apparently according to their UK website they do! *fingers crossed*
I'm so excited... it's like being a kid and getting candy! (I'm a big kid at heart
). This is my first ever Mac so I'm even more excited Apple charged my card about a month ago, and I have since paid it. Check your credit card company, if you placed it on a CC, and I'll bet you too have been charged already. I'm sure there will be something to call or send in once the MBP is received.
