    Ordered my Studio 15 on 06/30 and estimated delivery was 07/14. So today I get an email saying that due to 'popular demand' my estimated delivery is now 07/31 - over a MONTH after I ordered the damn thing.

    Really pissed off about this... anyone else got the same problem?

    Isn't the filter there for a reason? If you're going to remove a bunch of asterisks you might as well not bother with them in the first place. :confused:

    sorry to hear that but it's to be expected with models in high demand. Remember they're filling orders from all over the world.

    Thats unlucky man. I ordered mine on the 3rd July, EDD of the 17th, although it was shipped on friday. Did you have anything different in your order? Wasnt the X3100 delayed? Anyone know where they ship from btw?

    I ordered mine today. And the way I see it, Il have a long wait. Let's hope for the best. Going back to college in a month so I should get my hands on it just in time.

    I got it pretty much modified. Took all the high options and I had this 20% off rebate which saved me 200$. Can't wait!


    (I'm buying from the Canadian store, my Xps 420 was shipped to my house in under 3 days :p)

    I hate waiting! I plan on taking pictures and making a review of the Studio 15.

    My only problem is that a fully equipped Studio 15 without LED weights approx 6.2~6.4 lbs.

    If I don't get a good backpack Il split in half taking it all over the place =/

    Wait...what? You ordered a Dell Studio 15 and it was built and is being delivered in 2 days? I ordered mine two days ago and it went to "in production the same night. Should I be expecting this fast of a production?
