same here, just that I'm keeping the macbook pro as the X201s will be my new work laptop Originally they were saying 3/11 as the ship date. On the 3rd, the ship date got bumped to 3/15. I checked just now, and the ship date is completely blank. Sweet!

actually that's the exact same thing that's happened to me.

I think upon ordering I had an est. ship date of 3/11, which at some point moved to 3/15.
This morning when posting I noticed it's blank for me too! x.x

*Update, SHIPPED!

Rats, I got my hopes up that Lenovo was processing orders ahead of schedule. False alarm for me, still no estimated ship date.

Has it really shipped? Tracking number and everything?

Looks like Lenovo is processing orders ahead of schedule.

I ordered a X201s on 3/2 with estimated ship date of 3/16 but I just got an email that it was shipped on 3/5. Still waiting for tracking number. Will just have to wait while it flies half-way around the world to get here.

Looks like your x201s is configured basically just like mine: http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=85431

and I ordered on the 1st.. with the fastest shipping method they offered (2-day), but no shipping for me. I'm still just grateful they released the 201 when they did, I was about to get a T410 I couldn't wait forever since for me it's my work laptop and I'm starting my new position on monday. A couple weeks using a Dell I can deal with, but even that is pushing it.

I wonder if mine is delayed because I ordered it with the 55Y9003 "ThinkPad USB Keyboard" (the one that is just a thinkpad keyboard including trackpoint but external). It was "Ships within 24 hours" when I ordered, but now it's "Ships within 9 days". That's it, I'm calling on Monday.

cibaciba, congrats on the shipment notice - that is awesome. I am trying to decide if I should pull the trigger on the x201s as well.

41C9334 3YR Depot + 3YR ADP

all for $1,419.64 after California Tax & recycling fee
est. ship date is 3/19. hope it ships sooner

Already have windows 7 ultimate edition and will upgrade ram myself, also going to replace HDD with SSD

the 3 YR Depot + 3YR ADP is really a good deal cheaper than the 2 YR one

what is "with Camera and Wireless Broadband Upgradeable"?
It means a camera installed or you can add one later?

Thanks.

Thanks.

It means there is a camera plus the antenna(s) for the wireless broadband card are installed surrounding the screen regardless of whether you equip the laptop with said WWAN card.

All,

I ordered my x201 on 3/6 and initially saw and estimated ship date of 3/19 during the ordering process. However, when I check my order status, it does not have a ship date. Is this common after you've order your laptop?

When does the expected ship date usually appear?

Thanks

I found that checking order status from IBM website give more info than lenovo site

Thanks

You used the same customer and order number from the Lenovo email on that site? That's not working at all for me, lame. I think I'll just try not to think about it and be pleasantly surprised when the laptop arrives.

Yep. It worked. If you cut and pasted your info be mindful not to include spaces or special characters. That happened to me the first time and it didn't work. Also make sure on the following screen you highlight your order and choose the option at the bottom to view additional information. That usually will show your ship date.

My ship date is 3/22.

My x201 will be here today. Wil open it today and post impression on my first Lenovo/IBM laptop later.

Please do. I'm definately interested in your initial impressions. What are the specs of your x201?

Amazing....

I just checked my status and it went from 3/23 to shipped. I have a UPS tracking number but it didn't give me a delivery date. Being that I choose 2 day shipping, I guess it should be here by Friday or Saturday at the latest.

What do you guys think?

Mine is still said 3/22...

When did you order yours?

Thanks.

I ordered on 3/6. BTW, did you check the other link that was referenced earlier in the thread? That's how I found out mine had shipped. I also got an email confirmation from Levono.

What's your configuration? Maybe that has something to do with it......

It's pretty basic configuration. Just updated the camera, bluetooth, wireless card and battery...

Hmmmmm......Maybe thats it. I chose the elite x201 and just upgrade the HD to 500GB.......

Looks like a lot of people are going with the i620M. Looks like a really nice processor. I bet it'll spank my p8600 2.4ghz dual core in my x200.
