    I ordered yesterday and the order status says that it will be shipped 29th. But I heard that the actual shipment will be a couple of days eariler.

    Usually how many days earlier ?

    Depends. Maybe one or two. Expect it to be shipped on the 29th.

    Usually HP's expected ship dates are overestimated. Your system should arrive by the 29th. Ofcourse assuming there arent any other unforseen delays during production/shipping.

    From what I've seen, they normally ship, on average, 7 days after you order.

    Of course, like Miner says, there are unforeseen delays.

    When I ordered mine the expected shipping date was the 17th with an arrival at my home on the 19th. It was shipped on the 15th and arrived here this morning at 8:30. I like it! :)

    I ordered my CTO on the 13th from Costco, and today (the 19th) I just got an email saying it was shipped.

    That was VERY quick, especially considering the first 3 days consisted of 2 weekends and a holiday.

    Last time I ordered, it shipped like the day after it was supposed to. So I'm quite pleased with it this time around.
