I just checked my order at 12:30am central, and the status robot indicated that it has been shipped and gave me a fedex tracking number so I may actually get it later today. I placed the order on Monday, 7/23, by phone and paid for next day shipping. Good luck everyone. Dell may come thru for all of us after all.

I also ordered on 7/23 by phone and mine says shipped but no tracking number. Did you have to call to receive a tracking number? The touchtone order tracking line has me running in circles. I can never actually get to my order info.

Yes, I had to call to get the tracking number. The fedex tracker shows the manifest was picked up from Ontario, CA.

Geez, yours is comming from CA shipping to IL and mine is comming from NJ shipping to OR. LAME!! Oh well, I should be getting mine by Friday, ground shipping an all, so I guess thats good enough. At least I can play with it this weekend I hope.

I placed on order on 24th. Got the confirmation only yeasterday. BTW, why does Dell charge Tax ? Is everyone paying tax ... or can I ask them not to charge tax ?

I placed an order on the 23rd, but had problems getting my confirm number, and they didn't issue it until the 27th. I just got a "delayed until 8/15" notice and send Dell a nastygram that my order needs to be shipped with the rest of the 7/23 units and if this is not possible to have the sales supervisor contact me. I'll let you know how it turns out. (badly, if consistent with prior experience).

nataraj,


If Dell has an office in MO you will pay tax or if you ordered from the business side you will pay tax. I actually cancelled an order on the business side and replaced my order via phone to avoid the tax. I suppose I may have delayed shipping by a few days but...today I got an email saying it was shipped!! Now, this late in the game you may be screwed.
