    Wow ! I never knew how addictive an automated order status line could be. I've been calling 6-7 times a day. Didn't realize it took 3 days to get a Studio 17 into a box.

    Ship date was tomorrow so i was really worried about the dreaded "delayed shipping" email. Looking forward to getting this thing and trying it out. I am concerned about the sound issues some of you have had. I guess we'll see soon.

    How long after you heard these words did you receive your e-mail notification and tracking number?

    Just wondering - it's kinda like Christmas in August

    WoOT! That's great news..Congrat's and think *soon it will be in your hands*

    If you order has been shipped, check online order status..your tracking number should appear there shortly ;) :) Or, call a rep and ask them to provide it to you! :)

    Oh, BTW there is a support group being formed for the Dell Dialing Automated phone line and Online Line Order Status - Addictions, at this very moment!

    Let me know if you would like the meeting, times..etc ;) :tongue: :laugh:

    Cin ;) :)
