    Does anyone know anything about the TV tuner?Is it internal?

    Can we buy it later and install it ourselves?

    Was thinking it might make waiting at the airport go a little faster.

    I have shipping envy... did everyone go from Build to Test to Box to Ship?

    They rarely change... (it seems they only change if there's a delay beyond your shipdate).

    It's external... so you can buy it later.

    ... and no, some people went to BUILT to BOX to SHIP (cause testing is really short).

    If only I could travel to the future to the point in time where I'd get the m1330 at my doorstep. The problem is if I do that, it will cause a time paradox where when I really do get the laptop it will cease to exist at any point in time after the delivery date. The other problem is I'll need 12.1 Gigawatts of energy to power the flux capacitor, which only a lightning strike can generate.

    Looks like I'll be waiting legitimately for the laptop to arrive... :D

    I found something quite strange.
    When I logged into my account to check my order status, I found my Billing Information and Shipping Information showing only "N/A".

    A few days ago, it showed the exact shipping and billing address, but now it shows as "N/A".
    What's up with that?

    There are sometimes problems in the order status system. Mine was like that for 5 days... but Dell assured me that it had the shipping/billing address on file.

    It just says shipped online. It is being shipped Fed Ex and has a traking #. Online never changed my estimated shipping date because its still 8/13. I will have to wait for my tracking # to register before I will actually know when it will arrive.

    LowePro do the Computrekker and Stealth, both of which are great, but a little on the big side for day trips. They might be doing the Minitrekker with a compter compartment now, I don't know.

    Fed Ex just posted my estimated ship date to be from 7/25 to 7/28. Not sure why since I was promised the Next Bussiness Day Shipping. I guess I will just be thankful that I'm getting it next week.

    They are supposed to ship from TX or TN, right? But of course not on Sundays, that is why I said Monday.

    Other companies over estimate as well :).

    USPS once told me I was getting a package TWO weeks later that was being shipped from the same state. It was there the next day...
