Ship date on pre-order item? Anyone know when this pre-order item will actually ship?

Newegg is already saying they're shipping this.. But, newegg might just be sitting on the order too. I guess today or tomorrow it'll ship. I hope. Of course, if it doesn't ship till Friday, it'll be Monday before I get it :(

I ended up cancelling my pre-order on Amazon and ordering on Newegg (same price; free shipping) earlier today. Status of my order: shipped. Sorry, Amazon. You're still showing this item on pre-order, so I went where my money will actually buy a computer, not just the promise of one some day in the unspecified future. In the end, it might be that my order from Amazon would have arrived on the same day. However, I prefer the certainty of knowing my computer is already on the way from Newegg versus the uncertainty of "pre-order."

These reviews are very helpful. No reviews for this product is on cnet.com yet. I am going to wait it out and hear more reviews.

I just ordered mine with Newegg earlier today. I called and they had plenty in stock. Love you AMAZON but you need to have stock in order for us to order from you. I waited more than 1 week for AMAZON to get their stock in. NADA...had to buy from Newegg.

No kidding.. I'm about to cancel and order at Newegg too. J&R; has it, Newegg has it, Amazon apparently doesn't. I even called and they're like, "Yeah, I don't know why we're not shipping it". Come on Amazon.. Get with it!

I don't think anyone's listening. I want to know the date before I order as well.

I've been guaranteed by customer support that even though I haven't even gotten a shipping estimate in my email, the package should ship out tomorrow (on the release date) and arrive the same day. I find it hard to believe, but I guess I'll find out.

Ordered mine June 21, back then it said shipping in 2 to 4 months. As soon as it arrives I'll let everyone here know.

I agree. I too pre-ordered in early Aug and I also received the moved up email only to find out it was later than stated. As long as I get mine in time for Christmas I don't care, but at this point I am a little worried that I'll even get it by then. I hope that Amazon takes the lessons learned from this and other hot pre-orders like the Wii Fit to heart and improve on their service level standards. **Update** I was checking my account for another reason and I see now where I should be getting mine by the 24th of this month. Odd. But good news for me, I hope it actually ships then.

Same here, but showing me a shipping date of 1/21 through 2/2. I here sometime Amazon beats there estimated date, but nothing so far to indicate that will happen at this time.

I ordered mine the morning of August 21st. It shipped out on the 22nd and then I actually received it on the 27th.

Lucky you, I have no update to my pre order, and the item is showing out of stock. I am seriously not impressed with Amazon's lack of communication.

anybody receive a shipping notification yet ? apparently some who pre-ordered from the apple store early on have gotten theirs already.

I'm in the same boat... what good is a pre-order without an expected release date this close to Christmas? Seems gimmicky.

Not exactly sure. I ordered mine yesterday and I am waiting for it to come into stock. I hope they get the order within the next day or so so that I can get mine by the weekend.

I think it can arrive on release day depending on where you live. Otherwise the soonest it will arrive is the 7th, depending on the shipping method you selected.EDIT: Alright all our e-mails came in today and the estimated is on the 8th, even though I chose 1-day shipping. Hopefully it shows up tomorrow or the 7th.

I'm still waiting on my copy as well, Amazon told me to expect it on the 29th.Which is close to the 27th, but not exactly the 27th. Should've pre-ordered digital, because Amazon is a bit lost.

September 18th was the date I got when I was attempting to pre-ordered it. OF COURSE I CANCELLED! This is already in retail stores, albeit for $10 more, but COME ON! 2 months wait to save 10 bucks?!?!

Nice. I have been waiting to see if I can get it before I go on my trip, and just emailed amazon today. They told me they had no idea when it would be "released" through them. Sounds like you got lucky, I should have just pre-ordered then too...

It would be nice to know, they told me the 8th as well but I paid for one day shipping. I'm really considering cancelling and swinging by a gamestop to pick it up. Amazon would be wise to try and keep their customer's loyalty by sending their items out on time. Why anyone would want to wait 2-3 days to get an item they pre-ordered months in advance is beyond me, I assumed we all chose this for the reason of having it release day, or at the very least, the following day.

I ordered directly from Amazon on June 25th and received a delivery estimate of July 27 - August 11. I'm hoping to receive it before going on vacation on August 3rd, but I'm guessing it is going to get delayed. It appears to be in-stock and available from other sellers, but at about a hundred dollars more.

I did pre-order mine, Oct. 15th, with an estimated delivery date range, provided by Amazon, of Oct. 31-Nov.2. However today is Oct. 31 and the item's status still shows as "Not Yet Shipped"... I've got a feeling they are not going to get it delivered by Nov. 2nd then... ... ...
