The shipping date was accurate for me, but the FedEx Delivery Date is really an Estimated Delivery Date and mine was a day later than originally posted. That was last April, and I ordered them the day that the new models were announced, a BTO. FWIW TjL ps - not OT at all, IMO :^) -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: ..so I caved.. (OT?)
My iPod was the same way, in my hands one day before it was supposed to ship (engraved, shipped from Shanghai). My wife's iPod mini (green, also engraved), on the other hand, shipped when Apple said it would and was in my hands exactly when FedEx's website said it would be. For my PowerBook, I just couldn't wait, so I called every Apple Store in the Los Angeles area until the new ones were in. I ended up getting it February 2nd, and have been loving it ever since. By the way, I know that the larger models have improved keyboard illumination, but is the keyboard itself different? My new 12 keys feel a lot better and are much quieter than my old 12 was, and I already thought that the old one was close to perfection.
