    The HP website (shopping.hp.com) states its in stock and ready to ship…. Earlier it would NOT let you order one, and just said “COMING SOON”.

    I have one on PREORDER at COMPUSA, but still no word when its going to ship . . . .

    So for those who got the shipment e-mail from Amazon…….when did you place your order and what model did you order? I ordered an EX470 on 11/9 and Amazon is giving me a shipping estimate of December 12, 2007 – December 26, 2007.

    Just trying to figure out where I am in the queue.

    I ordered an EX470 on 11/4 and they’re giving me a shipping estimate of 12/7.

    Strange:
    I ordered mine (EX470) from Amazon on Wednesday, and got the shipping notice yesterday. I’m not sure how I “jumped the line”, but it’s on the truck for delivery now….

  • Terry Walsh

    If the allocation works like Amazon UK did Xbox 360 pre-orders, a lot depends on which regional warehouse is used by Amazon to fulfill your order and when stock arrives in those warehouses. i.e. it’s not done in order. There was a massive hoo-hah about it a couple of years ago….

  • Mark M

    Terry Walsh has a good point. Amazon probably doesn’t ship on a “first to order, first to ship” basis. So where is everyone located? I’m in Boston, MA, and am really want mine , preferably yesterday. So much so, I’ve been pondering ordering one off the HP website.

    Kudos to Kevin for ordering later than me, and getting it sooner. I envy you (though with some undeserved animosity and jealousy).

    I live in the great state of Northern Virginia :-) – the shipment is coming from ACWORTH, GA, US.

    Don’t feel bad, though – I’m not home to receive it, and probably won’t be able to pick it up tonight anyway.. Sigh.

  • Chris

    I live in Atlanta, GA and my estimated shipment date is December 12-26th…you got my hopes up seeing that yours was coming from Acworth, GA. I haven’t heard anything about it shipping yet though. I guess I’ll have to keep my fingers crossed!

  • Kevin

    Sure enough, they tried to deliver it on Friday and I wasn’t home; I couldn’t get to the UPS depot before the closed, so I have to wait until Monday.. (And then there’s work monday, and the gym after, then FINALLY I’ll get to play :-)
