    This looks very promising. Maybe some Dell rep won't be getting a nasty call.

    Been watching this thread for a few weeks, I ordered on 2/2 and today I got an email saying it had finally shipped, edd is 2/23! I ordered the Cosmic Black, SU7300, 4gb, 250 gb 7200, Custom name plate. Im in IL, United States. Not sure if this helps anyone else around this area as far as when they might get theirs.

    Well I just ordered the EPP version. Black, SU7300, 4gb, 500gb

    EPP forces you to get the 4gb RAM and 500gb HD or the SSD. It also forces the 15month mcafee subscription. Without the AV it would really be a good deal.

    So it sets you back $1019 before tax. Free shipping. I think it's a saving of $70 or so over a similarly config'd non epp system without AV.

    I wish they still built 'em here I'd likely get it in a week. Ah well :cool:

    Ok, EDD has finally updated - 2/23! :)

    With so many people getting theirs shipped today, it means all of you stuck in build will see your status update soon.

    Nah, what would suck is that you are in the US and could have gotten it for half the price instead of Dell UK.

    Now that DOES really suck ;)

    Hopefully some update happens while I'm asleep. I'd love to wake up and see "Estimated Delivery Date: 2/23/2010 (Updated)" :D It would give me a very good reason to skip class.

    Mine updated todayand shows shipped, but with a 2/23 delivery. I also have overnight shipping.
    I figured they must have completed boxing my computer (finally, after 5 days) and pre-printed the fed-ex label on Saturday, Fed-Ex will pick up the box on Monday and deliver on Tuesday. Works out well for me though, I will be working out of town on Monday, but should be home all day Tuesday.

    My EDD is the 1st of march.
    I got an invoice now, but the order status is still on production (the mail tells to check the status of the order if no shipment information was sent out yet):

    Does this mean that production has finished internally but it was not shipped yet?

    @morkeleb = If its shipped, the status should have changed from in production to something else (Shipped/Shipped from factory etc) so your guess shouldn't be too far from the mark.

    Mine says shipped and should be here 2/23. It says "Next Business Day". Do you know if they ship next business morning or next business afternoon? I only ask because I have a doctor's appointment at 11am on that day.

    FedEx shows mine before 3pm. From passed experience in my area I always receive FedEx packages between 12 and 2pm. It various depending on where you are in the route and of course the drivers load.

    Check FedEx for a "delivered by" time for a rough idea. Worst case if you miss the delivery you should be able to pick it up as they will leave a slip that tell you what time it will be at the facility for pickup.

    Yeah my tracking updated this morning saying it was picked up from Nashville (I live in Cape Girardeau, MO so about 3-4 hours away) So to me since I paid for overnight it should be here tomorrow, but it shows 2/23 still :( Hopefully when I wake up tomorrow it will show "In transit" to my house. Either way I just cleared tomorrow's calendar too lol. [​IMG]

    so anyone order a 256GB SSD with their M11x? I've only seen one with SSD ship. Dell rep told me that is my reason for being behind, but I dunno why others on 2/3 are stuck too. Just curious..

    I ordered one with the 256gb ssd too. Ordered 8th, went into production 15th, and I got an invice today stating shipped date is the 20th (and invoice date is 21st), but the order still states production.
    My guess is that internally production has finished but the package has either not shipped yet or was not handed over to my shipping company (UPS) yet - which I estimate will happen on monday or tuesday.

    Are they shipping from different areas in the US? I got FEDEX tracking information for my order and it claims to be arriving still in 2/23 (on the dell order page) but if its coming from the east coast...pretty sure it wont be two days. Gotta figure out what day to take off gah!

    Dell order status site has updated from "Delivery Preparation" to "Shipped" along with the tracking number, etc.

    FedEx doesn't show the package as picked up yet however. It is the same tracking number that I was able to pull up previously via my order number / zip code on the FedEx site.

    EDD remains 2/23 - Ship Date is today.

    ^^ Phone (2210) confirms above - and states that the system is "In Transit to the Carrier (FedEx)"

    I'll update with the location once it's been posted on FedEx.

    thanks for your info.. so your order from the 8th is already prepping to ship? Wow, my order from 2/3 has not moved at all =( Would you mind PM'ing me your order# so I can ask about why my order is not moving and that SSD is not the issue? Totally up to you though.

    Also ordered 2/3 with a 256GB SSD, and I'm still stuck in build as of a few minutes ago. Many calls and emails to customer service have finally resulted in a "we'll see if we can expedite" but that was several days ago and there has been no change. I know that I've been in build since 2/5.
