Experience in delivery times for retina MBP so far?

So I put in an order for a retina Macbook Pro on June 17 and as we all know the estimated time to ship is 3-4 weeks right now.


For those of you who also ordered online, have you received yours yet? Curious to see if the estimated time to ship is accurate or if they're just managing expectations.


Yes, I'm impatient!

Macbook, Mac OS X (10.5.3)

I ordered a 2.7/16/768 (and a thunderbolt display) as soon as the store opened on June 11, right after the announcement. The display was delivered in three dyas, but my laptop is still processing. Obviously it won't make the delivery estimate for July 9th. It is really frustrating to see how everybody else who order afterwards are receiving their laptops earlier while my order is stuck in processing.


I am having a really bad experience with Apple this time.

Happy for you Jim. When you call Apple they just say, "well, you're still within your window," and then, "I've never heard of that." They're very friendly and I'm certain they really don't know what's going on. And we end up sounding like whiners, and then someone will come into the forum and say "you know, no one from Apple reads these forums."

So what do you do. You wait. But it inherently violates the implicit agreement, "first ordered, first served." We expect better from them.
