I ordered my Apple 17" the day after they were announced at WWDC and was wondering if anyone has received theres yet?

I called the Apple Store UK yesterday and was told they were getting them on Monday 11th June and would ship it that day with delivery being Tuesday or Wednesday.

If no one has had theres yet I will post pictures when it arrives next week.

Looking forward to seeing what Quake3 looks like running at 1280x1024 using the Geforce3 in my 533DP

receiving and sending out on the same day is laughable, i'd expect it not to arrive until after the weekend, if your lucky

Yeah I know, I never believe a word they say

The only time they've been right was with my G4 in March and that was only because I got the phone number of the shipping company and hassled them all day. They use a company called IEC Express I think, why they can't use one of the "big boys" like UPS, Fed Ex or Parcel Force I don't know.
They are pretty quick at shipping from Cork Ireland to the North West of England as the shipping companies main depot is in Warrington (just outside Liverpool)

Anyway, fingers crossed.
