Well, I can't say for a fact (still on the phone, after leaving the phone, going to lunch, and then coming back to the phone), but I've gotten the distinct impression that these things haven't made it to the U.S. yet which in turn gives me the distinct impression that something has gone wrong at manufacturing (e.g. not recently, but note that the date has slipped more than once).

Then I start to wonder about screen flickering...

Well,

It is confirmed that mine IS shipped! I called up Dell today to place an order for the screen protector along with my order that I placed on the 18th, and he says he can't cause it was shipped out today!

He also said it would take 3-4 business days! So, WOOHOO!!!

Actually, probably the U.S. The reason I've been on the phone all day (I'll give the full story later) is that my Dell rep indicated yesterday that there was a chance a shipment of Axims would be coming in today and that those would ship tonight. I've been trying to hunt down if that was true and while I've been on the phone this happened!

Still waiting to confirm though...

My order went from In Production with none of the items completed this morning to Boxing this afternoon. Hopefully, they can get it in the mail by tomorrow so that I have a shot at getting it next week.

Interesting. Despite ordering a day later, I have an earlier date for "In Production" (mine was Sunday the 24th), but I haven't moved to completing any of the steps yet. Indicating once again that the dates don't really mean much....

In Pro, no checks. Big bully, hogging all the checks from us.

Well, on the way home from work and i started to think how pathetic I am. I keep going to the Dell site to see if magically my order status has changed from in production to shipped, and of course it hadn't. I started to think I am as bad as my kids looking for their birthday presents or christmas presents. Except I'm the one that is checking under the bed and looking in the attic hoping to get a glimpse of my presents. I keep going to the forums to get the latest info on what everyone else is seeing and feeling like it isn't fair that some people who ordered after me have already been shipped their PPC. I decided I was just going to cool it and let Dell send it when they do. Having said this, I just got done checking one last time. WooHoo, my order has updated to "In Transit". Christmas has arrived and I can hardly wait to play with my new toy.

Is there anyone who ordered on the 18th who's order has not been shipped yet?

Keep in mind, In transit does not necessarily mean shipped. I don't know of anyone I've seen (e.g. anyone with a tracking number) who has actually had it shipped yet.

But with Dell, until there's a tracking number, it hasn't shipped.
