I just checked my order status and it reads that it will be shipped by February 15. I'm hoping sooner rather than later.

Hey, mine too!!! I was worried that "shipping in February" might mean the 27th or something. Whew!

Feel free to ship one my way, y'know, if you feel like buying two would make your life more complete

When Apple initially promised the intel Macs, they said they would arrive in June.

So if they say yours will ship by Feb 15th, it will be there next week.

I ordered mine this morning and it also said 2/15 as the "ship by" date. If it gets here sooner, all the better.

In the past, Apple has had no problem pushing back ship dates for newly released products.

True dat. Anyone remember the original iBook. Announced in July -- with cover of Newsweek in late or early August. . Pre-ordered mine in August, with estimate shipping in mid-September. Didn't ship until late October , and I canceled and bought a refurbed G3 233 mhz powerbook (which was actually a great decision except for lack of USB on my model )

Someone hacked my signature. I demand an investigation.

is it realistic to expect being able to get a macbook shipped to me by feb 15th or being able to pick one up in the apple store in NYC by the 22nd?

i'm only in the US from jan 19-feb 23

if they are shipping from china, is it better to just have it shipped to me there, when i get back.....

Amazon is saying March 13th ship date. I placed an order late on the evening of the 10th, so I should be near the front of the line. Also Amazon is shipping it direct, instead of using J&R which they did for other Apple products I purchased from them.

I ordered it early as I don't want a cock up like some of the people who ordered a XBOX 360 had with amazon.co.uk.

You know you'll always get the best service if you order from the Apple Store, right?

I literally JUST ordered mine, so I don't have a ship date yet. I am sooo excited though. Got the 1.83GHz model with 1GB RAM and the 100GB/7200RPM hard drive. This thing should fly.

Oh yeah, ordered AppleCare (duh) and the Brenthaven 15/17 Pro backpack as well. Those should get here by next week.

Did I mention I am sooo excited? My Mac mini is about to be relegated to backup server status (but it did a very nice job of introducing me to the Mac and the joys of OS X - now on to the big guns).

<Edit>Mine now shows shipping on February 15th. Sweet.</Edit>

Cheers,
Wraven

Feb 15, that's the same ship day the iPod mini got when they first release them.

Yup, I got mine from Taiwan that day if I remember correctly.

Sadly, that iPod mini is no longer with me - found a good home at my cousin's house the week after I had it replaced because of its craptastic battery (22 months into my AppleCare ). Now its big brother proudly sits on my desk (Black 60GB 5th Gen.).

Cheers,
Wraven

Good catch, nRoth. I checked my order status this morning because I got a second email confirmation yesterday when they marked my ADC hardware purchase credit as used, and I figured that meant they were closing in on a ship date, but there was still no delivery date. Now mine is showing Feb 21, 2006 as the estimated delivered date. Out of curiousity, did you choose expedited shipping? I did, and that could explain the couple of day difference in our delivery estimates.

I was going to order the Brenthaven Shoulder Case, but I am leary that it's not going fit (too tight) since its dimensions are for the slightly smaller 15-inch PowerBook.

Mine says "Estimated shipped by 7th February".

EDIT: I suspect mine is one of the first. I phoned Apple whilst the keynote was still on and the guy who handled my order told me I was the first person in the UK to order one.

You UK guys get stiffed by Apple all the time, so I guess it is ok that you get yours first just this once. But don't do it again.
