    I can't seem to find many people who have ordered, let alone, recieved spring green 1720s or 1721s...so if you have ordered one, had one shipped, or (god forbid) recieved it, let me know! :)

    Yeah, as you can see from my obnoxiously large sig, I ordered a 1720 basically identical to yours except for the processor on 7/20. It has yet to leave the build stage.

    It has yet to leave the build stage but your ESD is 8/28? See that doesn't make sense, they're just going to update it to shipped when they know you've probably recieved it.

    I forgot to update my sig. My new ESD is 9/5. That won't happen either.

    Oh haha, see everyone, since they've ordered have gotten all these delay dates, I just have a delay warning but no official delay date and I don't understand why, if it's going to be delayed I want to know until when. Where did you get your delay dates from, just the order status page that shows the 5 stages of production?

    They send you a new EDD on the day of your previous EDD.

    UPDATE

    As expected, my ESD of 9/6/07 has been delayed. New ESD 9/28/07.
    On a "positive" note my Chocolate/Tourmaline Belkin Messenger bag that had an ESD of 10/19/07 shipped today.
    And to think, I was mad I would have my lappy for a month with no bag - now I'll have an empty bag for a month (or more) instead... :swoon:
