And so far no problems with dead pixels, noises, etc. But didn't test backlight bleeding, yet.

I've seen a couple of posts saying about this dead pixels, noises etc. Are there problems with the new iMac's or something?
 
I have the same config but ordered on 30.11.2012, its Still showing 04.01.2013 - Prepairung for Shipment - the same as you, but imagine my surprise when 10 minutes ago I got a call from my wife to say my iMac had been delivered ! no status update, no tracking , no despatch confirmation or anything . it just turned up.

They have some serious issues with the delivery tracking going on.

Give me some of that false hope, baby! Mine has been siting in Shanghai since Friday - to be sent (to Chermany)...
 
I'm just starting to get a little narked with Apple now...Quite a few BTO's ordered before mine have been delivered, I have a buyer for my current imac who won't wait forever, and I'm still stuck in processing...:mad:

You ordered 14th December, I suspect you will change over to preparing for shipment towards the end of this week or beginning of next. My calculations of course. For what it's worth, not that I expect it to make you feel any better, I ordered originally on 4th December, given delivery estimate of 2-7 January, for whatever reason the payment didn't go through correctly so was reset on 14th December, at which point I was given the non-specific January date. At that point I then took the opportunity to change the spec to the 680MX rather than the stock 675MX which was supposed to only delay the order by 24 hrs max (apple's words, not mine) but seemed to have reset the clock. And it's still processing with no end in sight. But have waited almost a year for this so trying to remain patient through gritted teeth. Hope we see some progress soon.
 
Ordered my 27"BTO top spec on the 30th of November, STILL no iMac , grrrrrrrrr
But as others have mentioned, I've also been waiting for this beast all most a year by now.... :(
 
How bizarre. That does seem rather slow. How did you pay if you don't mind me asking?

Bizarre indeed. I bought an paid at a retail seller called FONA here in Denmark.
I've wrote them an email a couple of times, but still no delivery date:(
I suspect my order is postponed, because I bought at a retail shop, damn
What the heck, still breathing ;)
 

iMac Finally arrived today....and I've updated the tracking spreadsheet mentioned above:
- ordered late on the 5th December (predicted delivery 3rd to 10th jan.)
- preparing to ship on the 31st December
- shipped on the 2nd Jan.
- left China on Virgin Air early on the 4th Jan.
- arrived Heathrow on the evening of the 4th jan.
- enjoyed site seeing at Heathrow until the 7th
- Then whisked from London to Tamworth to Devon by UPS in 26 hours (got about 16 hours notice indirectly from checking the tracking sites)
- arrived on the 8th.
- she who must be obeyed won't let me unpack it until Saturday 12th.:eek:
- very aesthetically pleasing rhomboidal box to look at though
