Ordered a tuxedo black XPS M1330 on October 18. Had great reservations ordering a Dell, after reading about all of the delayed shipments on various blogs. Almost bought the 13" macbook, but decided to give Dell another chance. Received it on October 26th. Incredible. Dell came through for me. What a great looking laptop. If you are thinking about the M1330....go ahead and order it.

I'm really utterly amazed by all of this. Ordered an Inspiron 1720 in mid August. Isn't the Inspiron a slightly older model? Haven't they been making it for a while?

Anyway, totally disappointed to see my ship date go from Sep 20 to October 10th. The absolute worst thing is talking to the chimpanzees on the "customer service phone" who just repeat the same stuff you can see on the website. What's the freaking point?

So just wanted to vent. But can anybody tell me do I have ANY hope of getting this laptop next month or should I give up? thanks... .j

I have the new XPS M1330 with LED screen. I wanted to check the config as they did not include the fingerpint reader I asked for. So here goes. how does one actually verify they have a white LED screen. In the device manager etc there is no mention as it's listed as a generic monitior. The drivers dop not specify whether it's LED. Can someone help as I paid for it and want to confirm,

p.s. Lovely system!

I can't even order the XPS 1330 anymore. I have been told it is now end of life and no orders are being taken. I'm in north america btw.

Another update after my post on the 9th. All in a suddent, I received a call from DHL yesterday and today, I have my dell delivered to my home already!! It's 2 months early!! Too bad I'm working overseas now, so have to wait another 2 days before I can open up the box to confirm whether I really got what I ordered. Hope that's alright.

I ordered my M1330 (in Hong Kong) and here's what showing when I check my order status. Received on 6Sep (checked) -> Work in progress on 7Sep (checked) -> Manufacturing Build completed on 8Sep (checked) -> Ship from Factory on 8Sep (in progress). My estimate delivery date is 14-Nov. So does it means that likely I'll have my new gear arrive far before the original estimate delivery date??

According to the sales rep when I place my order over the phone, she said that it's because the fingerprint reader is in shortage and so that's why this palmrest option is even removed from site. According to the sales rep we don't have shortage on the wireless N card (I'm not sure on LCD display because I ordered the CCFL display) but it is the fingerprint reader that take 7 weeks on waiting. Since now the status shown build is completed and ready for shipment, so hope that I don't really have to wait until that late in November.

I ordered a Dell for my daughter for college on 7/20/07. Estimated shipping date 8/16. It then became 8/28 which became 9/5 which became 9/12 which became 9/22. I am past the point of frustration. The bottom line is Dell has no idea when this computer might ship. I guess I should look on the bright side as it will make a dandy Christmas present if it ships by then which is unlikely considering Dells current track record. Why dont I just cancel the order? Abby wants the pink case. I am beyond dissapointed. I cant help but believe Dell is laughing at people like me all the way to the bank. I know this is some kind of a big joke to you Dell but to me this is a lot of money and if it were up to me I would drop you guys in a heartbeat.

This is getting really annoying....I wanted my laptop before school starts but I'm starting to doubt that it would ever happen. I ordered it on Aug 16 and they gave me an estimated date of Sept 10. If all of you ordered before me and are getting delays already, mine is going to even longer. Is the LED backlit LCD really worth all this wait?!?!
Asus does have the W7S which is sort of has the same specs but no LED? Should I cancel and get that instead?
