No doubt! Monday was my birthday so this is a nice present for myself!!

Curious, anyone know if there is a mini display port to display port cable in existence yet?
 
It looks like yours actually shipped whereas mine says "ships: Apr 28" - did you get a tracking number?

I did get a tracking number, yes. When I track it on FedEx it is showing delivery tomorrow. Now it shipped from Memphis and I live in Nashville so 1 day transit, but definitely shipped today and tracks fine.
 
I would bet once they start shipping they will clear all orders pretty fast. I find it unlikely that it's a hardware shortage.
 
yup i have a fedx tracking number as well.. is in Memphis. need to get a Minidisply to DVI to connect both my DVI 22" and 24" monitors. or i suppose a splitter from the dual link DVI would work as well.

Now where is 10.5.7??
 
it is clear that some road block has been cleared. i'd like to hear everyones experience in OSX, Win7_64, games, Aperture, iMovie, Final Cut??

am downloading AMD's new catalyst drivers for w7x64 on game.amd.com tonight.
 
mine was ordered 4th March, made a change a few days after to get 2 cards. Though now delayed.

MB999ZM/A, ATI RADEON HD 4870 512MB-ZML
will now ship on or before 20/05/2009 and deliver on or before
22/05/2009​

Good to hear others are shipping, will see if mine changes in Australia.

did you order yours online with Apple store australia?
 
you ordered two 4870s?

the price in Oz is pricey compared to the US and the UK 🙄

also wonder if the flicker problem some people have reported with the mini display to DL DVI adapter has been resolved 😕

Don't remind me.... 😛 Each card is $700! (got mine on edu discount $629) like that is much better. Just annoyed about the delay more than anything..the apple online store staff have been more than useless in providing any information.

I guess that works out to about $580 aud which is better than the current aud price.
 
its about $505 AUD if you claim back the 15% VAT on exit at the airport. Of course 10% on entry into AUS but it doesn't matter as I'll claim back the GST 😀 But still for the hassle I might just get it here 🙂
