I did initially get an August 23rd email then got the 19th shortly after, I did pick 1 day shipping though and am a Prime Member so I am sure that was the difference in dates....

I am a prime member and paid the $3.99 for one day also; hopefully mine gets change to this Friday too!
 
They're getting more 13" 128s this week but who knows how many were ordered.

Also confirmed that changing the shipping speed won't put you at the back of the line, it simply gives you an updated estimated delivery date since you changed the shipping speed.(More accurate)
 
The base 13" MBA I ordered August 5 is still "Not shipped." However, the 11"/128/4 I ordered Monday night shipped out this morning for delivery on Friday even though the estimated ship date when I ordered was 3-6 weeks. Looks like the 13" is really in high demand/short supply.

I'm glad to hear this. I am considering upgrading to 1 day shipping. I have prime membership, and 4 bucks isn't much :)
 
No email today. Hopefully tomorrow. What does Amazon have to do to get these Airs? They just have to order from Apple like the rest of us, right? What is taking so long?

I should probably stop reading this thread, it makes the wait seem worse, but I've read every post so far, and I'm not stopping now!

Me too, I check every couple of hours to see what has been posted lol

Base 13", still on go for the 31st-16th, no movement to report.

Same here
 
Maybe this is all some sort of big diabolical plan on amazon's part.

The longer we wait for our Air's, the more time we have to buy/read books on our new kindles! :eek:
 
Amazon is at it again! Just got an email for 20% off laptops and PC's if paid with the Amazon Rewards card. Good until Aug. 31. For now only the 2010 Macbook Air's are included. There's also a Mac mini that qualifies. Got my popcorn ready.

Was this a Kindle offer?

Too bad only the older MacBook Airs are eligible. Thanks for the heads up though.
 
They actually have some of the new tablets for sell too. Also, there are some nice PC's for sale. Overall a pretty good deal if you're not wanting a mac.
 
Any shipping updates today?

I ordered a 13" 256gb on 8/9 (early AM) and am still awaiting a shipping estimate. :/

Still don't even have a date range...

Thanks
 
I called and the rep said my 13/256 ordered on 8/8 is a special order item,meaning amazon does not stock them and have to order them from "Mac" (her words) each time a computer is ordered. Obviously the rep was a moron. She also said it won't ship until after 8/31. In any case I'm starting to get pissed. I never expected to wait this long. It is clear to me that amazon would like us to cancel our orders as no other retailer has airs backordered for two weeks.
