So shipping estimates for 13" 16GB RAM orders are now down to 1-2 weeks. Any of you see yours ship yet? I just ordered mine and got a delivery estimate of Dec 5-12.

I ordered 11/13 and am still in the "processing" phase with an expected delivery between 12/11 - 12/18.

Same. Ordered 11/15, still sitting at the original estimate of December 13-20. Was really hoping to get it around Thanksgiving but alas.

I called Apples customer care today and asked why the laptop I ordered 2 weeks ago has an expected delivery date later than if I were to cancel my original order and buy another identical laptop today. The rep I talked to seemed confused about the situation and wasn't able to resolve the issue other than explaining that it is probably just a system glitch and that the computer would likely be delivered earlier than expected. When asked if he could offer "some kind of discount or promotion" for the hassle, he offered to give me some kind of freebee, and I ended up with a free Apple TV. After a lot of questions it sounded like the most expensive item they are allowed to offer is a $129 printer, but anything under that price appears to be fair game. If any of you are in the same boat as I (which I know some of you are) give them a call and get yourself some shwag!
