interesting post! thanks!

I have a question though, when your order is shipped, does dell email you the Purolater shipping number immediately?

Just keep checking the order number page, it'll say shipped, and it'll say the name of the carrier and the tracking number. Click on it, and it'll take you to the tracking page. Not sure if that's how Purolater works (since I'm in the States), but that's how it is with FedEx and mine that's on it's way.

Just checking, did you receive a tracking number, yet??
Hoping for today, for you!

Yeah, I did. It's in San Antonio, currently on the phone with FedEx to see if they can get it pulled and have it waiting for me so I can pick it up today (since it's in San Antonio and even though it's slated to be delivered tomorrow, it's already in San Antonio).

They said that it's still in the shipping container at the airport and since it's not due to be delivered until tomorrow, it'll probably sit there to then. Which sucks considering it's in San Antonio. If they would just get it to the FedEx facility, I can go pick it up >.<

Aaaaah! I know that stinks that it's nearly w/in your grasp..and you have to continue to wait!

Well, be patient a bit longer! Think soon, it will be all *yours*

Yeah, I've been calling FedEx every couple of hours trying to see if it's there. I'm on the phone again seeing if it's out of the shipping container. Cause if it is... I will drive to go get it before I go to work today

[duke8628]

on your order status page, do they update the status throughout the day or at the end of the day? I ordered mine days ago and it doesn't even say its in build yet.

HA! I was like that when my Mini 9 was enroute to my city. I ended up picking it up from the FedEx depot in the evening after work.

(We had a snow storm anyways, and they were called off their delivery routes)...

I hope you can get it before work today!

Nope... I'm at work right now. Sad thing is, it's still sitting in a shipping container. I'm hoping they call in the next couple of hours, and I'll take off early to go get it.
