I was just curious as to how many people like myself are still in the process of waiting for their Dell to arrive.

VidGameKing,

Mine was also scheduled for a 12/26 arrival after a 12/02 order and UPS now tells me I'll have it on 12/18. Yours will probably arrive sooner as well, hopefully!

I ordered mine the morning of the 9th and it shipped on the 12th sometime @ 23:00...but Dell's site didn't showed that as a status (still showed in production) so I missed the FedEx guy on the 14th :(

I was real surprised by how fast they finalized the order...no thoughts on the unit itself yet as it is still charging.

ordered on the 15th -- gotta wait for jan. 07 to get it though. Guess that's what I get for waiting too long. :?

I orderd mine on the 6th and it was suppose to ship on the 23rd, but I just go off the phone with dells order tracking system and it said that it has shipped today. I am now checking on the UPS to see when it will arrive, I am hoping by the end of the week.

Ciao!

UPDATE:

I checked the UPS website when I got up this morning and they show me scheduled for delivery TODAY! The wait could finally be over.

Yeah, a lot of orders are going out now. I ordered mine on Dec. 5th. It was supposed to be shipped out on December 20th with an arrival date of December 25th -27th.

I received it 2 hours ago! :D

So, yeah, they're pretty good on getting the items out.

Sidenote: I ordered an extra cradle and travel charger at the same time and these are still "in transit"

So you can share my pain.

Yesterday, got the UPS sticky that says they tried to deliver it but it needs a sig, in person.

Got online and had two options. Have them hold it (so I could pick it up), or redirect the delivery.

What the heck, redirect to the office. No sweat, will do.

Checked status today, they'll be delivering to the office....tomorrow.

Hey guys, happy to report I received mine today. Checked UPS site during 8th period (ya, still in HS, unfortunately; however my acceptance letter came yesterday!) and I was ecstatic to see that it left the delivery center that morning en route to my house. Had to leave minutes after arriving home, so after throwing it on the cradle to charge, had to say goodbye to my darling Axim. As I post, it says it is done charging, but like a good boy, I am waiting the requisite four hours as per Dell's request. Looks beautiful, and as for the charge of being a, "tank," I had a Sony Clie prior to this and that is about as small as you can get. Realistically, the Axim's small size disadvantage is irrelevant. Congrats to all who received theirs and hang in there to those who haven't.

I ordered 12/15 (Sunday) with an estimated ship date of 12/24. It shipped today, 12/18, and is coming tomorrow via free overnight. :twisted:

I ordered the 400MHz version, with a cable and cradle.

after hearing people here talking about thier wait for the keyboard... I decided NOT to buy one... at least not yet.

But Dell should ship the Axim's now, and just backorder the Keyboards. make the customers happy.
