i5 matte hi-res 500gb 7200rpm ordered Wednesday, can anyone estimate when it'll arrive in copenhagen ? I have to leave for a solo roadtrip to Barcelona soon but if it's a matter of waiting till Wednesday I could probably do that since my laptop broke..

At least something is happening now. Maybe they have resumed operations and are currently preparing for the next available flight?

Aight, vacationing with just the iPhone might not be such a bad deal anyway... Gets my mind off waiting impatiantly and being without a working computer at home, hmm.. Can't describe how much that sucks.. Anyway hopefully I can return to Denmark on Monday and pick it up right away right?! Hehe :)
 
Excellent, finally an export scan for my 17" CTO, looks like it's off to Germany.
06:19 local.

Hope that new volcanic plume doesn't reach Cologne.

Can't believe the sentences I find myself writing these days. :eek:

Oh, and a rescheduled delivery date in the UK of this Wednesday! Let's hope so.
 
Mine seems to still be stuck in China. How many times can it be in transit and leaving the facility? I'm quite confused.

MBP 15.4/2.66/CTO, 8gigs ram, hi-res matte.
 
So even after Apple released the damn things, we're still waiting for Arrandale... :D

I don't have a shipping status on mine (I didn't order it directly at Apple) but I guess it could be affected too...
 
NO!!!!!

"Your package has experienced an exception."

SHANGHAI,CN APR20 11:24AM NATURAL DISASTER

Suppose it would have been worse if my doctor had told me that.

The giddy highs, the crushing lows...I'm guessing Wednesday's out now.

Same here. I am wondering with all the disruption if our status's will change at all until we get the knock at the door or it hits the local depot at least. I remember when it originally said in transit before it said exception it did say it can stay like that tik it is delivered.
 
Hey sorry for the noob question:

Which carrier do I search when apple's tracking said it was shipped by syncreon technology or something. i tried their website and it says package not found. Or am I missing something here.

My CTO MBP is being shipped to the UK from Shanghai (I assume).
 
Just seen two more flights (one originally destined for Cologne) flying into Madrid, Spain. Looks like UPS are actively targeting Spain and going overland from there. Still not sure if we will see updated tracking, though.
 
Finally ordered my base 13" model ... its seen as a CTO because I've added a miniport -> DVI adapter.. (is that normal??).

Estimated delivery.. 10-15th May... nearly a month away.


Shame the premium service obviously only starts when you actually receive your mac.. not before! :mad:

If I were you, I would cancel and reorder without the adapter. If I'm right in saying, if you order the laptop with any other product, it has to merged somewhere other than germany (Netherlands?) and increases your delivery time. Maybe order the adapter on a separate order?

It look like you also ordered other items along with your new macbook Pro, in that case it will go into the EU DC, then on to UK DC lear Leicester. If you had just ordered the MBP it would have been UPS as you ordered other items they need to merge in transit and will arrive by TNT. The bad news is you wont get any formal tracking until it hits the DC

Don't pull your hair out just yet, the items have to merge in transit so they always over estimate the delivery date.

Adding the DVI means your MBP has to go into the EU DC in a pallet then make up the rest of your order with the DVI before setting off to you... this is done via TNT.

Single MBP orders do a single ship via UPS

I ordered just the MBP and it looks like it is destined for Cologne before hiting the UK, albeit by UPS.

To be honest, I think if they get a huge backlog... that they will just use anyone to get them to us. All units goa via Cologne as I was told this is where they add regional items..

I just hope we all get them scratch and broken free!
