    Cheers but I still don't understand. Why would they post the same status on the same day? Also whats even more weird is that I got the 2nd one yesterday (the 11th). Sometimes I can't comprehend what goes on at Dell.

    What does "Uplift" and "Custom clearance in progress" mean? I got both of these on my XPS 15 that i ordered.

    Code: 
    Date 	Delivery Status
09-Dec-2010	Order Received	
14-Dec-2010	Work in Progress	
17-Dec-2010	Manufacturing Build Complete	
18-Dec-2010	Ship from Factory	
18-Dec-2010	Uplift	
19-Dec-2010	Custom clearance in progress
    Wow, sorry for the grave dig :(
