No shipping info
Hey guys, just after some advice.
Order a MBP 15" 2.66 I7. Hi res screen, 13th April. Says delivery 27th April - 5th May! Hasn't ever changed from these dates.
Says its shipped, and i have been invoiced but no ups tracking ticket. Also got the apple email apologizing for the delays.
Any ideas when i might see it? So frustrating.

Have you ordered anything else with your MBP? Printer, maybe, or AppleCare? If that's the case basically you won't get any shipping info until all the parts of your order are consolidated somewhere in Europe. Good luck.
Yes
I am just really annoyed that i ordered 10mins after the shop reopened when these babies came out, and i still have NO idea where they are. And after calls to apple they don't know either. The people on this forum are much more in the know and are at least attempting to find out where there and others laptops might be.

Into East Midlands by the looks of it.

Darn it, mine's stuck on 3/4 may. I ordered a sleeve with it, so I won't get any updates I guess. Ordered mine Wednesday after they were released, but payment didnt come through fast enough... Hope I'll get it a few days early, but definitely not counting on it..
"Please understand that it will take time to clear the backlog of inter-continental shipments currently in our system and customers may still experience delays. "
Booooooo... dognammit, why oh why is this happening.. I was looking forward playing with my new toy this weekend.
I only got origin-scans from shanghai, probably wont get it until next week
Yea, that was me asking what their priority is with new customers and people who are waiting. It's a good sign though. It'd be even more annoying if they were suggesting that new customers are priority and we come as and when they decide they feel like it.
I wish they would update the "Rescheduled Delivery Date" to something more likely, cant see mine turning up tomorrow, i've still on got:
SHANGHAI, CN 19/04/2010 10:28 ORIGIN SCAN
SHANGHAI, CN 17/04/2010 12:13 ORIGIN SCAN
CN 17/04/2010 7:21 BILLING INFORMATION RECEIVED
I've noticed the dates ar enow in the UK order, ir dd/mm/yyyy, i think they were americanised mm/dd/yyyy

Just been searching on google for some info about possible routes our MBPs could be taking (I'm in the same position as most of you here).
I came across this thread on macrumors about MBPs in 2008:
https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/624914/
I know that things could have changed since then, but is it still a possibility that they aren't going straight from shanghai to cologne?
Just thought this might help anyone who is searching for tracking info. I may be wrong about this though.
Edit: Just found a similar thread on the apple discussion boards

Doubt it's our MBP's but UPS6206 seems to be heading to East Midlands Airport, landing in 15 mins or so
There's also one coming from Philadelphia to Cologne... But dammit, I'm sure that's not ours either. Would be a strange way from China.
They don't go straight from Shanghai, they go via Seoul (Incheon) and then normally via Prague to Cologne. Sometimes there is also a stop in Almaty before Prague. But this is when normal flights are operating, it could have been anything in the last few days. There was one UPS flight yesterday from Incheon to Vienna.
bad news me thinks...
have noticed today that my estimated delivery on apple tracker (not the bridge thing) changed from 26 to 28th of April... the bridge still shows 4th of May. Still no tracking info only Merge in transit UK.
this was CTO 15" MBP that I ordered on the day 1.
