12" PowerBook - 6-8 Days Build (UK Store)
How long has it taken for anyone who's ordered a 12" PowerBook from the UK Store to get to them?
I ordered mine last Tuesday evening and it's still being built - which can be expected as it hasn't be 6-8 days.
Just wondering if anyone has had their's delivered yet.
Also - are they all being built in Taiwan?
TIA

(They've not started building mine yet - been on Reviewing Order for days!)

This evening will be 7 days... so I guess tomorrow I'll be on the phone if it isn't doing anything still.
My order (BTO 80GB HD, SD), confirmed yesterday, from the Finnish Applestore quoted estimated shipping date on or before October 24th.
Needles to say I'm not impressed.

It's in the Confirmed Order email Apple sent you. That's where mine was anyway.

Oh yes!
How long will my order take?
Please Allow 2-3 working days for receipt of Bank Transfer
Allow 6 - 8 days to build your order.
Allow 3 - 6 business days(after shipping) to deliver.
Didn't notice that.

Actually that was how it was in the Order Acknowledgment mail, the Order Confirmed mail included a specific date.
I got the Order Confirmed mail once the payment went through. Maybe you didn't got that Confirmed mail yet?

Don't think so - that's the only mail I've got. I know the payment's gone through because it's turned to Being Assembled.

My PowerBook will be shipped between today and the 26th of this month, and will then take 2-3 days to be delivered via TNT in the UK.

Could this just be a coincidence? Being October 3rd and all - when Panther is rumoured to ship? Are they holding back so they can ship the new PowerBook's with Panther on them?
Mine's back 'til the 3rd of October as well

order date 09-17
i need it fast, got to work with it
I need it soon, I'm off to Spain in a few weeks.
I'll phone Apple after lunch and will report back with what I get out of them.
It should be shipping Wednesday.
The chap on the phone has no idea why it's taking so long! But the production has been delayed.
He said he'll try and speed my order up for me.
What a load of help that was
