ordered an X61s (7668-CTO) configured with the 1.8ghz L7700, 4gb RAM, 100gb 7200rpm drive, 1gb turbo memory, fingerprint, bluetooth, 802.11 AGN, 3 extra power adapters, 4cell and an 8cell on 10/26. estimated ship date was 11/16. all of the power accessories (extra battery and power adapters) shipped out separately on 10/27. the laptop itself is showing up as shipped as of this morning, 10/31. pretty fast turnaround!

I ordered a similar configuration on 10/26th as well (10:30 am CST) except with Windows XP, 1 GB of RAM, no fingerprint reader and without the extra power adapters. My ship date is still 11/14.

I did receive my extra battery, though.

If Lenovo ships laptops in batches at the end of the month (as suggested by earlier posts in this thread), I hope I didn't miss the latest batch shipment and have to wait until the end of November.

Sigh.

that's unusual? i ordered mine early in the morning CST as well, and it's also being shipped very close to where you're located in the midwest. UPS status as of today states that despite an airline delay, it is on-time and scheduled for delivery TODAY. i'm still in disbelief and will not believe that until i've got it in my hands.

hope yours ships soon Ea3FX3V!

There were two shipments recently though; the 25th and 31st. My X61 was ordered on the 29th.

Wow, we're almost identical. I ordered 10/26, xp, 1gb ram (to upgrade myself), no fingerprint reader, no extra power adapters, and my ship date is still 11/14. My extra battery was split off the order, though, and that shipped 10/31 and is here. Eerily similar situation, huh?

Lenovo better not wait until after Thanksgiving to ship our laptops...

EDIT (11/6):

My X61 shipped today!

Ordered: 10/28/2007
Shipped: 11/06/2007

EDIT (11/7):

Whoa, Lenovo shipped it EXPRESS even though I chosen free UPS Ground. With the 13-hour time difference between Shanghai and NY helping me, my delivery date is tomorrow 11/8!

techfury90 · #576 Post by **techfury90** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 7:38 pm

Me too! 10/29 and 11/6!

immaculate · #577 Post by **immaculate** » Wed Nov 07, 2007 1:04 pm

got my x61s on 11/2 after a 10/31 ship date (there was a delay somewhere on UPS' end). ordered it on 10/26 with the original shipping estimate of 11/16.

the bad news is that the ultralight display keeps flickering like a bad fluorescent bulb when i wake from sleep or boot from cold so it's going back to lenovo next week =[

Great. They forgot to put it on the plane to here. Ironically, my power brick has arrived here from Louisville, but not the X61.

Weird. It said "your package has experienced an exception" before. Maybe it was sent on a later flight and will arrive in the afternoon or evening today. (I wonder what the latest delivery time for Express packages is. Supposedly they will deliver ASAP since Express packages are meant to be time-sensitive.)

I just ordered X61t on 11/12. Has anyone ordered an X61 tablet lately? Any chance at me getting it before the ESD?

JakeVooDoo · #584 Post by **JakeVooDoo** » Tue Nov 13, 2007 8:04 pm

I placed my order on 11/9/07 around 4PM

My order is showing a 12/5/07 ship date.

JakeVooDoo · #585 Post by **JakeVooDoo** » Tue Nov 13, 2007 8:07 pm

I also ordered the same exact configuration, with the exception of the N on the WiFi.

Looks like I don't have to wait 15 days, I X61 just shipped. It took less than a week to get it out the door..

Hope it isn't too hurried, hate to have dead pixels or 'problem child' issues.

Maybe that means mine will ship soon...

xmod · #588 Post by **xmod** » Fri Nov 16, 2007 3:14 pm

ordered my X61 on Oct 31, delivered to me on Nov 12, originally estimated shipping data Nov 19, so very pleased. I got it on sale with 25% + 20% off on that day, everything together costed 1300 bucks after tax, a real steal

JakeVooDoo · #589 Post by **JakeVooDoo** » Fri Nov 16, 2007 4:35 pm

So far boot up perfect, no dead pixels, and 100% amazement how better built it is than my Toshiba Tecra Tablet!!

Got 1Gig so need to get a 2 gig in soon, any word on weather mixing a 1 and 2 gig Ram still is a bad idea?

Preduck · #591 Post by **Preduck** » Mon Nov 19, 2007 9:08 pm

did anyone else get a shipping confirmation? I ordered a x61 and lenovo said it'd ship last week but I've heard nothing......I ordered it with the 8x DL dvd burner which I'm kind of regretting now.....

SteveDC · #592 Post by **SteveDC** » Wed Nov 21, 2007 6:35 am

Received notice that my X61s ordered on October 25 was shipped on November 20. I am told by the sales rep that the delay was caused by a shortage of DVD burners -- an option I included.

I believe they have a message saying it might delay your order if you choose dvd burner. I guess they mean it :p

I order one on 15th and the expected ship date is 12/21. I really hope i can get it be fore Xmas

Preduck · #594 Post by **Preduck** » Thu Nov 22, 2007 12:54 am

Yeah, I knew it'd be awhile when I ordered it because of the burner. It's still like being a kid on Christmas eve though waiting for it....Latest update on my ship date is the 26th now. They said due to delays with my screen, it's being delayed.

VizagDude · #595 Post by **VizagDude** » Thu Nov 22, 2007 11:34 pm

Hello guyz,

I ordered my X61 on Nov 15th. I ordered the notebook with out the docking station.

The estimated shipping date given is Dec 11th...

So, any ideas on when it might be shipped???

I live in New Jersey.

Trekk69 · #596 Post by **Trekk69** » Fri Nov 23, 2007 1:11 am

Ordered X61T 7767 factory model from Lenovo Canada, on Nov 15, shipped Nov 19. Delivered today the 22

nikemen · #597 Post by **nikemen** » Sun Nov 25, 2007 6:56 pm

I ordered a couple recently.

I ordered a pretty stock X61 during the 30% off 10/31 sale, it arrived on the 9th of November. nice.

Then, I ordered an X61 T, 1.6 SXGA+ 2GB RAM 100GB drive, Dock, BT, Office, CDRW/DVD, Turbo memory, couple extras.

It shipped on the 23rd, should be here this week.

Already worried about the BEZEL and the size of the SXGA screen.

lightweight · #598 Post by **lightweight** » Sun Nov 25, 2007 8:50 pm

Ordered under CPP + 12% USEHOLIDAY discount on 11/25. Expected ship date 12/20 but ordering process showed expected wait of only 2-3 weeks (1-2 weeks before adding the 8-cell high capacity battery). No other options appeared to affect expected ship date.

Any clues whether this will have the IBM or Lenovo/Thinkpad logo?

Ordered my X61 (7675) from Lenovo (direct) on 11/22/07. Has been showing an estimated ship date of 12/11/07 since I placed the order. Still showing a status of "In Process".

Judging by the recent early arrivals, I hope I get mine soon...This will be my first Thinkpad.
