    My x200 tablet shipped last friday 11/6. Got my tracking on 11/7 but since then all I can see is that its at Shanghai:

    Code: 
    Location 	Date 	        Local Time  	Description
SHANGHAI, CN 	11/06/2009 	9:57 A.M. 	ORIGIN SCAN
CN 	        11/06/2009 	3:19 A.M. 	BILLING INFORMATION RECEIVED
    Why has it not progressed? Its supposed to be delivered by the 12th!

    Suppose to be delivered by the 12th is what you said. Worry about it if you don't receive it on the 12th. It was the weekend; UPS was probably wait for enough units to fly over to Alaska.

    probably the computer wanted to visit The Bund in Shanghai, so it is taking the next flight to USA.

    6th was the first business day. Today is eleventh - thats 3 business days. Totally 4 business days now.

    BTW the machine is now at Chek Lap Kok, HK after going to Pampanga, PH from Shanghai, CN. What gives?! Why has it not yet landed in the US?

    UPS is still operational and makes deliveries on Veteran's Day.

    There is the possibility that the status is not updating, this does happen sometimes. One of my packages from a domestic retailer (granted, it was Fedex, not UPS) did not update its status from its origin scan until it arrived a week later.

    You can try to give UPS a call and see if you can get any information on your package.

    I just spoke to UPS, the package is scheduled to be delivered on Monday. My whole weekend went down the drain. W.T.F Lenovo?! I was supposed to have it TODAY! Seriously, W.T.F?!

    didn't your system ship two or three weeks earlier than expected though?   did you specifically arrange for the system to be delivered on the 12th or was that just what happened to show up in the tracking info when you received your shipment notification?

    i understand your excitement here but am curious who set the expectation of the 12th -- you, lenovo, or UPS.

    Also why is it Lenovo's fault...?

    Once it is in the hands of UPS Lenovo only really affects the customs (in that they needed to provide the documentation).
