I called Apple, and they told me that it wouldn't be charged until it shipped, and that they were showing no hold status from the credit card company (which did happen to me once with American Express once when I bought a couple of iPods as corporate gifts (I had to call Amex to confirm it was a genuine order, then they approved the charge for the iPods). So I called American Express so they could note on my account that a charge of around $3700.00 from Apple was coming soon, and they said that would be fine.messagepad, they charged me a couple hours after I placed the order on the 18th. That said, I think I remember them only charging me for my Leopard preorder last year when it was getting ready to ship. So, maybe they only charge when your computer is about to go down the production line.
Check with your credit/debit card company too, sometimes they'll block very large purchases if you traditionally only make small purchases.
I'm almost on the exact same schedule as you, looks like our Macs shipped together. I even ordered the same config - 2.8 with 320 7200 HD. Ordered at 4:20 PM CDT Oct 14. My AppleCare and Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter came today via FedEx. My MacBook Pro is scheduled to come anytime between today (20th) and Thursday the 24th. My UPS tracking is below

Looks like I'm at least the third on the same pallet that seems to be rotting in Alaska. 2.8 with the 7200 320, ordered 9:02 am 10/15 EDT. (I am amused that mine got scanned a few minutes before yours on the origin and export scan... Maybe a little lower on the pallet.)
No updates since Sunday afternoon. Oh well. Maybe it'll come Friday. I'd settle for some change in the tracking sometime soon.
