*OFFICIAL* M11x Order Status Discussion Thread

and with DR650SE's nameplate.

 

Just hit build stage tonight. I ordered on 2/3/10 and the estimated ship date is 3/3/10.

My specs are intel SU7300, 4GB RAM, 160GB HDD, bluetooth, and Gobi for AT&T.

 

Same here.

 

In build stage now!

 

I'll update - build stage, Su7300, BT, 256GB SSD, 4GB, Silver
NBD shipping estimated March 4, 2010. Ordered 2/3/10.

 

Just ordered. Wheeeee....

 

Ordered 2/3/2010. Build stage as well... shipping out estimated 3/3/2010.

 

good luck to you guys ordering the m11x. I hope dell does not screw over your orders like they did to some of the people who ordered the m17x r2.

 

Those of you that ordered the 160gb HDD - its 5400 RPM right?

I dont mind either way because an SSD is going in there, but I'd be mad if they're giving UK customers 5400 RPM and 7200RPM for USA customers.

 

160 is 5400. 250, 320 and 500 are 7200s. Same in the US of A I think. http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&oc=DKCWMN1&s=dhs&fb=1

 

Anyone else get their status updated to an earlier time?

 

Haha, I think if that happened, I'd be kicking myself for not getting Lo-Jack, in turn finding my laptop/osama and getting $25Mil from the Feds. Maybe they'd even let me press the button on the predator. Hmm... I wonder if Complete care covers an airstrike??

 

Daymn. Might be more if you get his lieutenants too. Care to share? ROFL, maybe, but surely not a tac nuke.

 

Just got a preorder date for scandinavia and a pricetag for Sweden.

Pre-order date: 12th february
Price: 9999 SEK, that's $1336,76 or €978,38

Sure, the Swedish price is after taxes and all but ~70% more expensive?

Too bad, was really looking forward to perhaps buying one.

 

Specs: SU7300, 44G DDR3 RAM, 500GB 7200rpm HDD
Ordered date: 5th Feb
Current status: In Production
EDD: 3rd March
Revised EDD: 19th Feb
Location: Malaysia

looks like the 2-3 weeks lead time for delivery promised by Dell is going to be fulfilled.

 

T_T Will ring my rep tomorrow. I am getting more and more impatient after seeing your EDD

 

Me too...lol

 

What a waist of time spent 20mins on hold to Dell to see if they are actually in production and all i get at the end of it was "Chin Tu Fat" telling me that the shipping date is for the 11th and i should get a phone call to arrange a delivery date, what a load of crap she was blatantly reading from a script.

 

Don't get you mate. Could you slow down and explain?

 

He wants an M11x, Chin Tu Fat won't sell him one and now he's angry at Chin Tu Fat. Hmm I'm in the mood for some Chinese food today.

 

i've spoken to 4 reps just to get an exact date of my EDD. lol. trying not to be too optimistic over the date but i just couldn't take the waiting anymore.

 

How'd you get to the Care reps? Are they the same as the sales reps? Dad said the payment got confirmed today, the bank called him less than an hour after paying.

 

Thank you someone gets me *sigh*

 

1800-88-4432. choose to speak to a customer care consultant. my bank didn't even bother to call me. lol

 

Oh my bad, the Dell guy called dad to confirm that payment was confirmed and processed. Might not have to bother the poor guy tomorrow after all...

 

Went into the build stage this morning. Order Date: 02/03/2010.

 

Darnit... Why? Must... have... awesome...

 

I'm flipping out too

 

Apparently my payment hasn't been taken yet (ordered 02/02). I phoned my sales rep who is currently verifying that the details are correct.. damnit why must I have such an obsessive personality? :]

 

Even though Dell's site has been showing orders in production, they have not been. Dell is verrry general on the stages of production that they post for orders. If you have no problem canceling an order, it is NOT really "in production".

If the sales rep says the order can not be canceled- it IS "in production" and unless held up with part shortages that are normal (one week), the product will ship within a few days. With extended part delays, the CS rep will cancel an order if the customer asks- after discussing with the production rep.

 

Still in build stage... (growing more impatient by the nanosecond)

 

Right there with ya Nuke!!

 

I just canceled mine. Didn't think I would get enough use out of it....oh well.

 

Woots mine just moved up in line. Thanks Mandrake!

 

lol, glad I could help.

 

Imagine how I feel keep getting these annoying post notifications for BOTH! threads so I have to go check my status before looking her encase im missing out only kidding,

 

A penny saved is a penny earned.

I don't have a notebook so this will be my primary notebook (aka: used all the freakin time )

 

Notice: Nothing significant here

 

Just ordered and paid an m11x.

Got it at the European prices, but got a nice discount after mentioning the US prices and coupons.

Dell states it thinks it can deliver the lappy at Feb 22 at the latest, way before I expected.

 

For some reason Europe is getting their lappies before USA. I wonder why that is? If it's delayed due to Chinese New Year as seems to be speculating, then it seems it would affect everyone not just USA.

 

Shorter Distribution chains?

Less customers/orders than the USA market?

It is....roughly 150% Higher price than in the USA, maybe they make more money from these orders?

Use Euro customers as early testing for issues? Who knows.

 

Pretty sure the manufacturer has different plants for each region... it is very likely the european countries are not going to be manufactured in the same plant as the US. this could explain both the price difference (cheaper for some to build depending on labor costs in area) and the time difference (some areas have different holidays than others)

 

Well done! Sorry I didn't ring and haggle now - I did manage to get 20 euro off though the EPP link.

 

Well the US of A gets engraved nameplates, while everyone else just gets a plate slapped on... So... yeah T_T

 

Oh crud... My dell rep just told me they might not be able to make the deadline

 

dang~ why is that? now i'm getting worried about my order too.

 

Cause I am now leaving early. 25th flat. Prelim EDD is 26th. T_T Pity the poor rep who got me.

 

call customer care and place an expedite request, mate. got my Vostro expedite from 5th Feb to 27th Jan (approx. a week earlier). i just re-confirmed with my rep and my date will still be on 19th.

 

Rep said he would try his best to expedite already...

 

double-expedite via customer care?
