    No updates yet. Processed 11/25, UPS Worldwide Expedited service, but presumably not yet built. Hopefully soon! I agree, my SSD is already here and copy of Windows is on the way!

    Separation makes the heart grow fonder :)

    You'll have it before the 24th ;) I was lucky enough to have mine 4 days after I bought it (but then again I didn't buy from a reseller)

    Ordered mine 28th processed 29th. Was told mine might be a bit delayed beyond the rest because I ordered the 95% matte screen and they are currently delayed until mid this week. Might have to contact them later and see if there is a way to get it overnighted, because I need mine by the end of this week.

    I don't believe they open in Las Vegas until 9am Pacific, so I wouldn't expect much news yet. I'm in Texas, halfway between NY and NV so I don't know where the one I ordered will come from. It's better not to think about it than to turn into Gollum.

    They're hustling today. If you're expecting something, keep an eye on your e-mail.

    Bleh. There still aren't enough P150HMs and the delay will be till the end of the week. I really, really hope that somehow I can get mine for this weekend, which seems rather unlikely now. Next, next weekend is Christmas and I'll be away and unavailable to break it in. :(

    Alright then, I guess it's more like Red Box. You get your product from the location that's got it. One thing I was wondering, not very seriously, was if they did any sort of in-store pickup.

    You can pick up your order at our LV location, but you have to pay 8.1% sales tax - if you do.

    Well there's shortages now due to Black Friday ~ Cyber Monday (Should be all stocked this week?). Depending on build time/shipping time you probably will get it before new years.

    Yeah, it's pretty pricey - especially considering it's going to spend 2 weeks at the build stage! Alas, UPS is known for charging absolutely abysmal brokerage charges, and this includes brokerage. Now I'm only going to have to pay 5% of the purchase price in taxes when it arrives....eventually. If yours is shipping Wednesday and you ordered the same day as me, I must just be unlucky - no e-mail yet.

    Update - Just got an e-mail back from my ticket at Malibal, the P150 with Matte screen is still backordered (as we knew), Friday is best-case scenario, most likely they aren't shipping until sometime next week.

    The longer I wait for the shipping date, the more time I have to think about changing my order. Again.
