    Looks like possibly, there was a *misroute* in the delivery. ???

    Contact Dell directly tomorrow and see where it sits. Currently it's pending delivery status?

    Or, contact the Carrier directly, to find out!

    Cin ;) :)

    If you have already agreed for delivery tomorrow and it is in your local area then there's nothing to worry about.

    I don't think it could have managed the journey from China to Hinckley in 85 minutes (unless delivered via ICBM :eek: ) so I assume there was a glitch in the system.
