    I'm in the west as well and I received my mouse that was placed in the same order (on the 5th) as the laptop on the 11th. I'm hoping that means the M11X will be shipped by Friday or so.

    My rep told me that my order is delayed because of back ordered parts. EDD 3/3 still.

    I'm beginning to think the reps don't know what they're talking about or really aren't checking into the statuses correctly.. :)

    I called earlier today - asked about shortages/back-ordered parts, etc. "no problems / no delays - on track for your EDD and actually you should receive it ahead of schedule".

    A lot of people have been getting the response that the power supply seems to be back ordered, but its far from confirmed.

    I suspect that if by the end of next week and you are still eta in 3/? or in production/build But ordered early then there's definitely something going on.

    What is the best number(or the only number to call) for Dell.ca?
    I saw the number for US, and the steps. Is there a similar one for Dell Canada?

    So this is the Alienware reps response to my request for information on my order. Still waiting on my Dell business Rep's response..:

    **Dell rep**

    The status of the order is still “in production.” The estimated shipping date that you were provided when the order was placed was 03/03/2010, and as of right now, we have no reason to believe that we will be unable to deliver on that date. While other systems may have already shipped out, the specific system that you chose may have had different components than the others, thus resulting in a longer lead time.

    Do you have an order number for any of the systems that have shipped out before yours? If so I can try and see what the differences are, and why yours may be taking longer.

    As of right now, however, there is nothing at all wrong with this order---it is still on track to be shipped out on or before 3/3/10 as originally quoted.

    Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.

    So same old same old BS from the Alienware side. :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Great idea mikel, but you would have to coordinate it with everyone ordering from the usa (3 timezones) and the UK and SA (another timezone) Then let the Australasia zone (3 timezones at least) fire a second salvo when Dell finally runs from the US assault. Don't think Darky would be all to happy with us plotting to bring down dell...

    Just reading these M11x threads makes me want one LOL !

    Seriously ! even though I don't game much, just usual, once in a blue moon... but damn.. this little sucker is tempting... :D

    The thickness of M11x is a lot more than I am used to (Sony SZ, Z, MBP)... but I dunno I might end up ordering one lolx..

    BTW, there happens to be a queue, right? First Come First Serve basis type? Suppose If I order now, my Ship date wont be in first week of March... ?

    If you order now, your EDD won't be until the middle of March. But Dell will usually ship them earlier than the estimate, as evident by the many recent posts.

    Was the information your rep gave you different from the info on the website? Or were both sets of info pretty much the same?

    Edit: To pass the time, I'm trying to recover my hacked WoW account lol.

    Has anyone had a computer ship that used EPP or stacked coupons?

    I know I am being the devils advocate but what if dell is shipping to the people that paid full price first, then to people that stacked coupons.

    Well this morning I waited patiently for my m11x as the EDD was today (18/2/10), called up to double check that it was definitely set for today and I key in my order number... "Your order is currently being built. Estimated delivery date 15th of March 2010." I then check the status on the internet and yep it has been REVERSED all the way to the 'Work In Progress' stage with no EDD on the site.

    So yeah, that sucks. Hopefully it is just me and everybody else gets who has today as their EDD actually gets theirs today.

    It must be a typo, since those who ordered on 2/2 haven't gotten theirs yet.

    I just removed 39 posts as a result of secr33t's post. While I understand the excitement, its not necessary to spam the thread with comments speculating on if his delivery is true or not, fast food suggestions, distances across town, etc.

    Thanks.
