How long between order and ship/delivery? I ordered an almost exactly the same unit, except with the stock 512mb memory. Ordered on 2/2, status is Open, estimated ship 2/18!

How hot does your PB get? Is there a big difference between
highest and reduced processor speeds? Would like to know if its fairly 'usable' on your lap or does it get too hot? Do the fans come on often and are they loud when they do?

Congrats on your new purchase!
