Gary, five bucks says they ship yours really soon. (figurative bet) They moved my est. ship date by about a month...then by a day...then a few hours later it shipped. All of these date changes happened all of the sudden, these being the only changes since I ordered the system...sound familiar?

We'll see ! I'll keep an eye on it ! I sure hope your right !

I think that alot of these people who got email confirmation that their's shipped were confused, as I was, about what was shipping. I read the whole page carefull and discovered that my spare battery is coming but not the thinkpad. That is still May XX. If I am wrong and everyone else is getting theirs... I am happy for you.

I got a delivery email from lenovodirect last Saturday. But the order status link in the email pointed to a different customer id! This must be a pre-April fool joke and it's not funny. My estimated shipping status has changed to one day later (from original 4/20/2006) every day, now it's 4/24/2006. Lenovo should learn something about logistics from dell.

jimmcclarty · #75 Post by **jimmcclarty** » Mon Mar 27, 2006 2:37 pm

Another thing they could learn from Dell is that Dell charges you the day you place the order and if you have to wait 2 months for delivery that is fine they still have your money the whole time. I am glad Lanovo has not learned that.

Wierd...mine finally got out of china and now..."THE SHIPMENT IS BEING HELD BY BROKERAGE FOR REASONS BEYOND UPS' CONTROL" in louisville kentucky...or so says ups tracking. I suppose this is because it's an import, but then again they didn't hold my ram. I hope nothing bad happens...

CalBioEngr · #77 Post by **CalBioEngr** » Mon Mar 27, 2006 4:51 pm

mine seems to be stuck, too.

ONTARIO, CA "THE SHIPMENT IS BEING HELD UNTIL ALL ASSOCIATED PACKAGES IN THIS SHIPMENT HAVE ARRIVED"

so close yet so far...

It's normal....

IBM usually import hundreds laptops or others in the same time....

they just stuck in the airport and wait for clearance (too many things)

it's usually take 2~3 days for clearance...

stupid UPS,...

The delivery date for my X60 was weird too. I ordered on 03/14/06. If I recall correctly, I received an e-mail notification that my delivery date was advanced to 04/22/06 from early April. A couple of days ago I received notice that the X60 had already been shipped. Today, I checked on its status and it had cleared Ontario, California and been shipped up to Alaska! That was weird since I reside in Seattle. I am expecting delivery of the X60 tomorrow, Tuesday 03/28/06 or at latest, Wednesday 03/29/06. As usual, I will wait to see what transpires.

PTzero · #80 Post by **PTzero** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 10:21 am

I received my X60s (1704-69U) yesterday. It took several days for it to clear customs in Louisville, KY. So far I love the machine.

mcgyver · #81 Post by **mcgyver** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 12:12 pm

I guess Lenovo wants to ship the products as many as possible to bring in revenues for this quarter. After 5 days from my order, the product was shipped! However, it got stuck at the export office in Shanghai.

'FORMAL EXPORT ENTRY REQUIRES ADDITIONAL CUSTOMS CLEARANCE PROCESSING TIME AT EXPORT LOCATION'

I researched a bit and found out this article ( http://www.betanews.com/article/Group_S ... 1143562768 )

Group Sees Spy Threat in Lenovo PCs
By Ed Oswald, BetaNews
March 28, 2006, 11:25 AM
Citing fears of espionage, the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission (USCC) said Monday it would call for a probe into the plans for Lenovo to supply 15,000 computers to the U.S. State Department. The USCC said the computers could be bugged to spy on the U.S. government.

Ah, things are getting out of hand. Hope it won't impact our orders. If mine is delivered in 3 days, it will take only 8 days; much faster than 4 weeks I anticipated.

CalBioEngr · #82 Post by **CalBioEngr** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 12:19 pm

good luck getting yours delivered in 3 days...it has been three days since mine was shipped and as of today,

"SHIPPER REQUESTED UPS TO ACCEPT PACKAGE AFTER 1 DAY CUT-OFF TIME AND ACCEPTS 1 DAY DELAY IN TRANSIT TIME TO DESTINATION.;FORWARDED TO THE FACILITY IN THE DESTINATION CITY "

i don't get a say in this?! what if I DON'T ACCEPT a 1-day delay in transit time?! Arrgh...

ImSeeker · #83 Post by **ImSeeker** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 1:37 pm

Darn - it still looks like Last Order in - first shipped...

Still no love for a 2/14/06 order..... now says 5/19/06

Siddsartre · #84 Post by **Siddsartre** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 3:10 pm

So here's my shipping saga...

1st tracking entry:
CN 03/25/2006 12:00 A.M. BILLING INFORMATION RECEIVED
(seems plausible enough)

2nd entry:
SHANGHAI, CN 03/25/2006 8:59 A.M. ORIGIN SCAN
(okay)

4th:
SHANGHAI, CN 03/27/2006 7:04 A.M. EXPORT SCAN
(I'm with you)

5th:
SHANGHAI, CN 03/27/2006 10:10 P.M. DEPARTURE SCAN
(sounds all right)

6th:
LOUISVILLE, KY, US 03/27/2006 1:37 P.M. THE SHIPMENT IS BEING HELD BY BROKERAGE FOR REASONS BEYOND UPS' CONTROL
(...wtf?)

7th:
ANCHORAGE, AK, US 03/27/2006 1:06 P.M. ARRIVAL SCAN
(okay...now this is really odd. First of all, notice how my package has transcended the bonds of space and time by going back in time by 31 minutes, and also how it managed to travel from Kentucky to of all places Alaska...which is much further away from me than kentucky is...in negative 31 minutes. Can anyone make any sense of this?)

8th:
LOUISVILLE, KY, US 03/27/2006 11:11 P.M.
(All right...so now we're right back to kentucky...hopefully it won't fall into that slip in the space-time continuum again that they seem to have there. Notice how all the other entries have a comment labelled "activity" which is there to tell you exactly what is being done to the package...now it's empty...as if it's just sitting there lonely and forgotten.)

Anybody have any insight?

CalBioEngr · #85 Post by **CalBioEngr** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 3:38 pm

well, as far as i know, all UPS scan time are local time. so 1:37PM in Kentucky is like 9:30AM in Alaska, but it still means took UPS less then 4hrs to go from KY to AK, which is amazingly fast...like supersonic speed. why UPS decides to go form KY to AK then back to KY again is beyond me...

Siddsartre · #86 Post by **Siddsartre** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 4:23 pm

Oh, odd that they'd use local time for that area, but at least now I'm not as confused.

CalBioEngr · #87 Post by **CalBioEngr** » Wed Mar 29, 2006 11:56 am

Arrg, UPS is staring to tick me off...

"A CORRECT STREET NUMBER IS NEEDED FOR DELIVERY. UPS IS ATTEMPTING TO OBTAIN THIS INFORMATION;THE ADDRESS HAS BEEN CORRECTED. THE DELIVERY HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED"

Could they not read the address on the box or something? It still shows rescheduled for today but I am not getting my hopes up.

flyfysher · #88 Post by **flyfysher** » Wed Mar 29, 2006 6:25 pm

Ordered 3/14. Arrived in USA 3/27. Held by the Feds for two days. Delivered 3/29.

ImSeeker · #89 Post by **ImSeeker** » Wed Mar 29, 2006 7:18 pm

Ordered FEBRUARY 14, still waiting for ship, says 5/20.

Darn!!!

Gary Miyakawa · #90 Post by **Gary Miyakawa** » Thu Mar 30, 2006 12:45 am

Welp, the website says it shipped today, but I don't have a valid UPS tracking number AND my credit card hasn't been charged so...

Who knows....

Gary Miyakawa

Update, just got a good tracking #...

Shows leaving Shanghai, CN on 3/30/06 at 9:27am...

To bad I'm in San Jose for the next week. Maybe I can wave at it as it flys over to Atlanta

Says 4.90kgs some I'm guessing its the whole thing.

More to come !
