Sony hit my credit card so it is going today per original 7/30 estimate. Yippee!!
Correction: no it ain't. Boo hoo.
Corection to correction: Ok, it finally shipped 5 days later. Yay!!
-
awesome! when did you order exactly?
-
-
ah lucky! I ordered the 16th and my SR is still being built.
-
-
-
like a fixated dork that I am, I just called to check the status - it's in manufacturing now....geez!
Don't they know I'm really super special and really want it, and that it would be super cool if I had it this weekend?!?!
Sony Claus: the one and only. -

Well, my FW was ordered on the 22nd I think, but got the email confirmation of the order on the 23. Hopefully it will be coming along soon. It seems to me IMO that those who indicate some loyalty (or something) by ordering through their site, that it would take priority over even the pre-configed jobs sent out to retail stores. But I don't think that's how it all works.
-
According to Sony customer support, my FW is out of production and ready to ship. Keeping fingers and toes crossed.
-
what the hell? lol wow, what's up with that! my SR should have been built before yours! I pre ordered several days before you!
mine still isnt done yet. well im not getting it this week thats for sure
-
My credit card also got charged today but I haven't received a shipping confirmation. I ordered the FW on the 21st. An online customer service rep told me this morning it should ship today.

(and yes, I'm just kidding!

Maybe he should've ordered from Newegg???

Update: My FW didn't ship and won't ship until probably Monday. I was misinformed by newbie Sony CSR yesterday. A more experienced CSR got real status for my order this morning. The work order to build it was just opened yesterday, ergo. my card was charged. Since it will take 24-48 hrs to build it (plus some because it's new), Monday is a safe bet. I just hope FedEx Ground puts it on a plane instead of a train.
-
hee-hee... -
-
I just contacted online support to see if my FW shipped yesterday like they said it would and this was their reply:
"Thank you for your patience. This order was scheduled to ship yesterday, but was not processed for shipment before Fed Ex picked up their shipment yesterday. This item should ship today."
I live about an hour from the San Diego factory so if they do ship it there is a chance I could receive it before the weekend. -
BTW, I lived in Lake Elsinore (about an hour from SD) in the early '90s. Now I'm 3000 miles away!! -
Scary! -
-
Well, looks like the CSR I talked to was wrong again... no shipping notice today and it still says "processing" on the order information page.
-
-
-
but...atheros is a good company from what I heard. so it's not like they got gyped or anything.. -
-
-
"And YankeeGirl who ordered last week got the correct info from her sales guy...assembly starts on July 30, shipments on August 4."
This also what I was told today by a Sony rep who seemed rather more informed and willing to say something more explicitly.
So, I guess new toys next week then! -
Anybody get a shipping notice yet?
-
no. i placed my order on 28th and just received an email this morning saying the production had begun. But the email also says the estimated shipping date is Aug 1st. How weird is that ?

so it took sony a week to process my order and then began to build my computer. Wow, that's slow. Much slower compared to HP's processing time. I wonder what the heck they were doing in last week. Took an entire week to process my order ....
-
Anyway, you're not doing too bad considering there were about 2 weeks of orders in front of you. -
Just updating:
Unlike you guys, I never received an e-mail saying my FW was being built. However, when I login to sonystyle it reads, "Your VAIO is being built."
Sigh. I did receive my useless "Back-To-School" accessories in the mail a few days ago. -
yeah, i hope my computer can be shipped out tmr.
-
Got my shipping confirmation at 8:49 pm.
Sent by Fedex ground and scheduled delivery is today.
-
i'm not sure if you guys got it but sony is offering free shipping now till next week
-
-
Lesson to be learned...keep checking your email until midnight Eastern.
Hope yours ships today.
-
-
Oh, TetonWolf... one more request, please. Can you tell us the manufacturer of the BD Burner? I'm hoping it's not a Matt Sue Sheet Ahh.
-
My FW CTO is shipping today
