TNT Delivery Status not aviable

My dispatch notification email is dated 19th May, yet still nothing shows up in any of the tracking sites.

Is anyone else frustrated that Apple doesn't offer us faster delivery in the UK? It sounds as though in the US they can have speedy delivery by FedEx, but in the UK there is no option.

It's also surprising that they don't warn you that it's going to take a few weeks by the time they have assembled it and packed it onto some mules for it's round the world trip (when we ordered an iMac previously it said 'Dispatch in 24 hours' and it took about 10 days to arrive. If someone is deciding whether to order online or drive to the nearest AppleStore they could easily be hoodwinked into ordering online because they assume they will receive it in a couple of days (for most companies, next day delivery is the norm).

I know I'm just being impatient, but I really do think Apple could do more to keep customers happy in this respect.

I also shipped out at 21.17. Quite exciting to think of our computers making the long journay en masse.
But I do think that the Apple Store telephone salespeople are a bit dishonest: I ordered on the 16th and was told my computer would be delivered within 3 days, which was obviously complete crap. No-one is getting them anything like that fast.

I called TNT here in Norway, and a sweedish rep told me that I would receive it by the 29MAY!! ;(

The package is still in Shanghai Pudong International Airport so that means that everybody here in this forum still have their packages in China!

I got an update:

20 May 2006 21:17 Suzhou Shipped From Originating Depot
20 May 2006 20:17 Suzhou Consignment Received At Transit Point
20 May 2006 11:30 Zurich Held Customs

Maybe already in Switzerland, I think sunday they are not updates, will call tomorrow.

Mac OS X (10.4.6)

That doesn't make sense - how can it be in Switzerland at 11:30 on the 20th if it was in China at 21:17 on the 20th?!

well that's the question...

Can't wait to call TNT to ask them what's happening

I just got an update:

20 May 2006 21:17 Suzhou Shipped From Originating Depot
20 May 2006 20:08 Suzhou Consignment Received
20 July 1969 20:17 Customs at the Sea of Tranquility - The Moon

The bizarre time differences' are because of the world time zones.

I ordered just after launch on Apple Store, still I will not be getting my MacBook until 29th of May. This is what TNT tells me:

20 may 2006 9:17pm Suzhou Shipped From Originating Depot
20 may 2006 8:22pm Suzhou Consignment Received At Transit Point

Man, I can not wait.

This ***** - Apple's tracking put the estimate back a day to the 30th. It used to be the 29th :,(
