MacDailyNews readers are reporting Fedex trucks have delivered their 17-inch MacBook Pro units this morning (the whole situation is quite vexing, as we still await our order).
AppleInsider corroborates, “The first of Apple Computer’s new 17-inch MacBook Pro professional notebook began arriving in the hands of its US-based customers on Monday… One Mac user, who was among the first to place orders for the new notebook on April 24th, said his 17-inch MacBook arrived via FedEx on Monday. The new notebook shipped to the user from Shanghai by way of Alaska.”
