    My thoughts exactly. This is easily the best tech purchase I've ever made.

    Indeed, I am very happy with my purchase!
    Colour coordinated my laptop with my pink earphones, played some Bioshock 2 and Mass Effect 2 :D
    Feels quite odd to be able to play new games on such a small laptop. Very spiffy.

    The former. but the m11x is kinda loosely packed around it so if you're taking it out from a bag it offers no grip on the m11x, so you have to scoop the laptop out :D

    :D
    Mine's just switched to "In Production"
    This order officially went through on Friday, so that's a 3 day turnaround!
    I'm using this change detection website so I don't have to keep checking: www.changedetection.com
    I kept checking the Dell Order Status too to begin with, but it's proved it works now, so I won't need to!

    Mine switched last night from "in production" to "shipped"... on Wednesday I will leave the country (UK) for a month, so if the little baby doesn`t show up by Wednesday morning i`m officially screwed...

    C`mon Dell, don`t let me down!
    My EDD is 23rd of March

    Good one! you can use it to protect the M11x which is what I've been doing since my APE bag is pretty tight and I don't want to take any risks (when unzipping the laptop compartment) of having the corners scratched! Added two pics showing me multitasking on the little monster! While installing Risen, playing winamp, being on Xfire , Steam , Chrome and IE....lol

    Finally ordered mine yesterday! :D
    Just over $1,100 :). I love you DR605SE
    Currently it's in production. EDD is 4/5 :(. But I have NBD shipping so hopefully it won't be quite that long.
    What is the fastest someone has received their order?

    To my surprise, it was "In Production" for only 4 days. "Work in Progress" took longer, 5 days.
    Now I`ll just wait and see how long the "Shipped" status will stay on before changing to "Delivered"...

    Ah, sounds good to me!
    My 'Work in Progress' was 2 days, but then there was a mix up with the order and it was cancelled after 3 days of being 'Work in Progress' then re-ordered.
    So I've been 'Work in Progress' for a total of 5 days, but officially, 2 on this order.
    Here's hoping my 'In Production' lasts at most 4 days!

    It was their mistake the order got mixed up, so they`d better hurry your delivery :)

    Yeah, exactly!
    They'd not included the promised mouse with the ESL Pro deal, and for some reason, the Bluetooth was 'South Africa Dell Bluetooth Card'
    Another -up my rep made was not ordering it on the day I called. He only sent me a quote. I eventually got him to make the order a couple of days later when I called up to say "Eh?"

    What you say makes me wonder - on my spec sheet, the "South Africa Dell Bluetooth" also appears. What`s with the South Africa thing?

    I've no idea, sadly.
    A few people have said to me it's probably just a weird naming thing of Dell's.
    Mine now reads 'Europe Dell Bluetooth Card' though.

    As long as the South Africans don`t have other bluetooth standards, I don`t mind having a South African bluetooth card. Let`s hope this is not the beginning of my problems with Dell though.

    Yeah, hope not.
    I don't think they do. Maybe it's a backup card they use when they're out of the Europe card?
    EDIT: It's more than likely exactly the same card. It has the same model number: 365.

    Thanks for the info! I`m relieved to find out that the European and the South African cards are in fact the same model.

    I like the graphics Dell uses for the Australian website :D

    For the UK site they have no graphics, only
    "Work in Progress" -> "In Production" -> "Shipped" -> "Delivered" :p

    Mine is shipping - tracking number and all! Ordered the new system on 3/5 and it will deliver 3/16 possibly 3/15. I think I made a good decision to cancel my 2/5 order which was pushed back several times.
