Where is my T42???

#1 Post by pennypacker » Fri Jun 11, 2004 1:00 pm

So I receieved an email from IBM on 6/8 saying that my 2378-FVU had shipped (2 day shipping). I've been checking the UPS site since then and nothing has changed for two days:

Jun 9, 2004
11:33 P.M. ONTARIO, CA, US IMPORT SCAN
5:38 P.M. KOWLOON BAY, HK PICKUP SCAN
5:35 P.M. ANCHORAGE, AK, US ARRIVAL SCAN
2:51 P.M. ONTARIO, CA, US FOOD/DRUG ADMINISTRATION HOLD
12:59 A.M. CN BILLING INFORMATION RECEIVED

It seems like it's stuck in Ontario, CA in customs or something along with around 50 or so other laptops. Anyone else have similar experience waiting for their laptop?

Ahh!!! I can't stand the wait...

As all federal offices are closed today in memory of R. Reagan, if it is on hold for FDA as it says, you possibly won't see it until next week.

I think I'm in exactly the same situation. My DXU is currently sitting in Ontario as well :-( I hope I get it soon, though I'm sure it won't be until next week given that it's unlikely it'll be processed today.

yeah, they really got my hopes up when I found out that they had shipped on Tuesday and was getting myself psyched to start playing with it this weekend. Alas, I'll have to wait until Monday.

I guess I shouldn't be complaining since the original estimated ship date was 7/8.

I had a similar case with pennypacker in that my laptop shipped way before their original anticipated date. however, using the ups tracker, i saw this weird message. i was wondering if anyone has encountered this message or knows what it mean.s

thanks.
