    How long did it take before it was delivered? My T61 showed that it was shipped on Saturday at 7:30 PM from SHENZHEN, CN, but the estimated delivery date hasn't been updated as yet? Can anyone give me an idea as to when I might expect it?

    Lenovo shipped my T60p Friday by UPS Express from Hong Kong, China and it will be delivered to me in Memphis, TN in the morning. So, delivery from Hong Kong to Memphis, TN requires only one business day for delivery! View the UPS Express tracking.

    Custom T60p ordered through Lenovo USA website: Tue 6/19/2007 1:55 AM
    Order shipped by UPS EXPRESS just 2.5 days later: Fri 6/22/2007 2:20 PM
    To be delivered next business day: Mon 6/25/2007 AM
    Wow!!!!! The wait is almost over. :D

    So, if you are in Memphis, you should get your package in the morning too.

    Mine just took a couple of days once it shipped. Took about a month to actually ship though. Been in heaven ever since it got here though. Worth the wait for a top notch product.

    Cool.. So I can expect possibly as early as Tuesday sometime? I take it that they require that you sign for it correct? Trying to decide if I need to plan to work from home one day.

    My T60p was shipped Wednesday 5/20, was out for delivery Friday 5/22. Of course I wasn't home at 10:30 am so I called to have them hold it for me to pick up that night, and they managed to lose the package in their shipping center. Hopefully they find it Monday and I can pick it up.

    Cliffs Notes: 2 days.

    ciphermonk, did they ship your laptop with express service? mine that shipped on 6/23 only came with the expedited service (about 2-3 bus. longer delivery).

    Yes... According to the UPS tracking info

    Service Type: EXPEDITED DELIVERY CON

    So I guess that means that it'll be here the first part of this week?

    I would probably guess that it will be here the later part of the week. Try going to the UPS website and doing a time in transit quote. The Shenzen, CN zipcode is 200000.

    Is the delivery date later than listed on the initial UPS shipping notice estimate?

    Hi I ordered the T61 on 06/17 and it shipped today.....

    It shows Shipment type: UPS Ground....does it mean its Ups ground or is there a chance it might be expedited shipping

    That's encouraging han405. I suppose I'll be able to call UPS in the morning and see if they can give me an idea as to when it'll show up.

    Did they make your order status page invalid? Otherwise, you would've known it wasn't canceled.
