    I ordered my expresso brown 1520 on July 19th. It got pushed back to August 28th but it's still "in production". I noticed on the Dell website that the Expresso Brown "may delay your order by 1 day". A few days ago it was 5 days.. have any of you guys got yours yet? I am losing hope :(

    I ordered mine on 7/23 and it's still in production and est of 8/28. I really think it'll be delayed again.

    My flamingo pink 1420 also says "in production" with my third ESD of 8/28/07 so I called Dell this morning. They transferred me to the modifications department and the lady that I talked to said all of my parts were in and that the laptop would be shipped on 8/28/07. I asked her why when I call and check my order status it says "in production" and she told me they have not updated that area recently. We'll see if my laptop comes in - I hope Dell is telling the truth. My daughter needs this laptop at college.
