    Havn't seen mine yet.

    New orders have an estimated shipping date of 3-4 weeks.

    The Honoulu store told me they'd be available on the 19th.



    This was told me about two weeks ago.

    Mine scheduled to ship "on or before" the 15th. Was hoping for "before"...but obviously, at this point, won't be much before. Only hoping there are no delays. Very anxious to get things going with it. Moved a bunch of things around in anticipation of AExp. Soon will be streaming audio and wirelessly printing. Woo hoo!

    Mine scheduled to ship on or before the 15th. I was lucky to get an Airport card for me iMac as Apple has stopped selling them! Bad timing I must say

    I ordered mine pretty much the day they were announced, only 2 days to go (the Apple online store still says the 15th)!

    Ordered within an hour of its release and it shipped yesterday - should be here tomorrow. Definitely was important to jump fast as over 80,000 have been sold. That's probably going to be the same with the upcoming iPod and iMac. Move fast or wait.

    apparentlly mine got to fedex late in Taiwan they are telling me 16th by 10:30 am. Apparently my Airport Express was late to the airport! Ironic.



    But, I am in NYC so, that is halfway across the world.



    Perhaps the New USarmy supercomputer doing high velocity aerospace research can come up with a way to scramjet my airport to me.

    Mine arrived this morning at 9:07!! Performs as expected. I am currently listening to Brad Pasley coming out of my stereo speakers.

    G4 Man, are you using it as a wireless access point? Could you talk about what kind of range it gets? I don't see an antenna on it so I'm a little skeptical but it's just so cool I'll probably end up buying one anyway

    Did you get the optical + RCA cable kit too? If so what length are they?

    Negative on the optical + RCA cable kit, just the AE.

    I've currently got it plugged into the power strip behind my TV. My Airport Extreme Base Station is in the sewing room about 50 feet away. My bars of reception were at most 2. This is an old house with all wood walls and such. With the Express plugged in the same room as the Powerbook, I now have 3 bars. I thought it would go to 4 bars with no problem , but such is not the case. I haven't tried to walk outside yet to check range due to the extreme Texas heat. It is currently 101, but with the humidity it feels like about 110 or so. I'll do the walk around after the sun goes down.

    I'm really surprised they were able to collect 80K preorders. That's a lot more than I expected...

    Me, too. 80k seems insanely successful. Bravo, Apple.

    Any word on the reception of the Airport Express versus the Extreme [when used as a router]?
