I checked it at around 7am NY time this morning and it just said the 23rd for delivery. I called apple and they said that it was still scheduled with them for shipment on the 20th. I also spoke to a fedex delivery man and he said that shipments from China are usually pretty fast and that there is no reason that we wont have it by friday. I think it just depends on the customs process. Keep your fingers crossed!
Did you get any changes on your fedex status page this morning?
I think I may hold the record for the fastest order to ship time for the 17" MBP. Ordered it at around 8PM EDT and by 4AM it was shipped! I didn't expect this. Says it delivers by Monday, the 23rd.
Here's a screenshot. Edited out personal information of course. It's the completely stock configuration.

HAHA. Nope and I just was asking the same. Im thinking we will get an update today. But IDK if it has another stop after China or not. Fingers crossed for tomorrow I suppose
FedEx comes early to me also. UPS is usually after 5 pm. I'm glad US orders are going FedEx.
What are you studying?
Ok, my FEDEX status just changed to "in transit." Lookin' good.
My estimated delivery is Monday 2/23, however, I have a feeling it will be here tomorrow.
I am having mine delivered to work so that I don't have the "we tried to deliver, but no one was home" run around.
Please note: All the above is assuming I cannot rendezvous by jetliner this afternoon at 2:03pm Texas time with the FEDEX plane.
Anyone in NY with the same info below have any updates for me???
Do you think its going to come Monday the 23rd or tomorrow???
You and I both, brother. I guess a watched pot never boils, as they say, but the wait for the anti glare version is killing me! I, too, am considering switching to glossy just to get the damn thing sooner!I just want it now lol![]()

i am shocked how BEAUTIFUL this thing is. its so slim and tiny and sexy. any photo does not do it justice. wow. his thing is AWESOME
Ok, so I ordered the matte on 27 jan. Not yet shipped. I seriously can't wait anymore. I am considering switching to glossy. Does anyone know if matte is important for web designers/video editing? I am doing a digital media course, and not much/or any press/print work. So will it matter if i get glossy? I got matte, since i heard it better for design, but i hate the silver bezel!
I just want it now lol

I don't care if you think pictures will do it justice, TAKE SOME PICTURES FOR US!!![]()
Thanks for the replies guys! I guess I will just stick with matte. I just hate the silver bezelAnd the fact it doesn't have the 60% gamut increase.
Nathan

Yeah, how do you think I can afford a $3,000 laptop! ;-) Thanks, glad you like it.
Ok awesome news about the gamutJust want the damn thing now.
I hope the matte will be as strong as the glossy/glass. It would be cool to have a something that you can attach on to the matte laptop so it can have the black border lol.
