[?]Anyone got a "shipped" already for the new 15"?
His Steveness said "available today!"
"available today" as of Tuesday, should yield a "shipped" by Friday for stock orders that were first in line, shouldn't it?

Well, there have been a number of them at Apple Stores. I have seen some people who have "shipped"; whether it is coming from Taiwan or Illinois or California seems to be in question. I'm thinking they will start trickling in tomorrow, and many if not most of the first-day orders will arrive by Friday.

A couple of dozen new 15 inchers, mostly the superdrive ones, made it to resellers in HK last Friday. Of course all gone already, sold, sold, sold!
It always seemed kind of silly to me when people ask the question "Should I get less of a machine that I want so I don't have to wait?". For example, less memory or a 4200RPM HD so they can get it from a brick-and-mortar Apple Store. You can have 2 of fast, cheap or just the way you want it, in my experience. Asking for all three is asking for disappointment.
What a MEGA laptop - this is the best mac i have ever used (and i have used a few) - the speed, the build quality, the screen, the cool backlight keyboard - im in love
I think I'm probably one of the first persons to own one in the UK since neither retailers or the apple store here have any at this time...
Stock 1ghz model (didn't go for the backlit keyboard, as cool as it is, i needed 2 save money for ram). Ordered around 4:30EST on Tuesday afternoon (sept. 16)
Of course the tracking number isn't working, but I didn't get a "Call us" at the Airborne site.
I gotta chime in here and say that I have always been 100% satisfied with Airborne, too. FedEx is good, but not worth the extra money in my day-to-day experience. It seems that this week they have either been overwhelmed, or their system isn't interfacing with Apple's too well. *shrug*
Can't wait until Wednesday when I will be an official switcher. I'm a switcher of a slighty different variety tho', having given up on Windows many years ago in favor of linux. I expect my Apple experience to be more satisfying than either.
