    Can anyone out there, who has ordered the customized built HP 5101, please tell me:
    - the date you order;
    - the date you receive;
    - how accurate the order status shown on your HP account is.

    I've ordered mine through an agent (as I live in Australia and can't get one or order one myself) since 15 August but it hasn't arrived yet. The agent keeps telling me that she couldn't get any info. from HP at all. :(

    So did you call up HP USA? HP Australia won't be able to look it up. However, HP's order status is actually global, so you can track your orders everywhere provided you have the Purchase Order number.

    Fyi, the 5101 is widely available in Australia, and at pretty attractive prices. You can get it with a HD screen, SSD, WWAN, etc.
