    It seems that Dell changed their website last night. Last night I saw that my system was kitting, but today the page is different and just lists "In Production", but notdetails such as building, testing, etc.

    Anyone else seeing this change?

    I noticed that too earlier yesterday in California. I am waiting for a replacement e1705. Mine was FUBAR out of the box. It is annoying that it takes more than a week to get a replacement, and more annoying when I can't see the details.

    Yeah, I just ordered another E1405 for my wife ... and all I can see is "In Production."

    I just ordered a Lenovo Z61M for work, and it's even worse. Ship date of 12/5/2006 and nary any update on status other then "In Progress." At least I didn't have to pay for that one.

    So, in the whole scheme of things, at least I know with Dell the PC will be here within a week. :-D

    1-800-433-9014, ignore the prompts and type in your order # and it will tell you not only that it is in production, but also the phase (build/testing/boxing). :)

    Hope that helped!

    Ship date of December 5, 2006? :eek2: Even if it's a typo and European date and it's May 12th, 2007 that's still really bad.

    Wow, neither did I. I was just searching threads and I saw that one there and thought to myself "I had the same problem with the website."

    At least my post helped some people here though, so it's all good!
