My T43p was just delayed for another three weeks!

#1 Post by Chordate » Wed Jul 13, 2005 1:15 pm

I called saturday, and after two weeks of waiting, they said it will be shiped this Wednesday (today), so I call them up today to confirm it was shipped. And then they tell me it has been delayed for an extra two to three weeks. So I will now have to wait up to six weeks for my comuter to get to me from order... This is seriously upsetting me, and I think I may just cancel my order and get the new Asus laptop with the 128mp X700 graphics card. I mean seriousy, how many order are there for the 2668G2U, not too many I am guessing because it costs 3500 bucks. Lenovo really needs to get their act together and increase production or they are going to hurt, a lot.

Oh well... :(

This really is too bad. I have heard similar complaints from the computer department at school, they have been waiting 6 weeks for some T43 orders to ship. Delays like this may force me to get a Latitude.

Lenovo blamed my delay on "Intel chipset issues". Anyone else heard this?

How does the screen look? Is it pretty crisp/clear? How is watching DVDs on it?

I'll say the T43p is worth the wait, I love my 15".

Ordered mid may and got it last week.
