    Well, I ordered a X201s (i7 640lm) on the 03/28 with an est. ship date on the 04/22

    Given the i7 shortage I'm having doubts it will ship on time.
    Did anyone else ordered an X201(s) recently? when? with what CPU? and what is the est. ship date / actual ship date?

    I order tablet with i7 640lm on 3/22. The original estimated shipping date was 4/11. Now the system says that an est. shipping date is 6/22. My sale rep was also surprised by this delay even though he acknowledged a longer delivery time with X200 series with i7 processor. I am seriously considering cancelling this order at this point. Wait until your est ship date and see how this date changes.

    My X201s (620lm) arrived within two weeks from the ordering date. I ordered mine on 03/14, and received on 3/25, much earlier than the original estimated 04/02 :) . Since this happened two weeks before yours, take whatever it is worth.

    It looks like those who ordered either first or second week of March received a unit within a reasonable time frame.
    I noticed that any units requiring i7 620/640UM were taken off from the ordering site. However, direct lenovo ordering system from my workplace still lists everything with longer delivery time.
    I totally understand LeMarcus's point but don't like the way Lenovo handles the ordering website.
