When, oh when will it ship?

I put in an order for the 17" MacBook Pro within minutes of it hitting Amazon, and I still reserve the right to cancel it. But I probably won't. I always planned to replace the old one after three years, and honestly, I've never even had a computer last that long. And it's still tip top.

But oh the agony of waiting for it to actually ship. People in the Apple forums say they've had their cards charged buying direct, so they're presumably trickling out, but Amazon has yet to give a guess. Gotta do it on Amazon because of the lack of sales tax and the associates kick-back.

I haven't bought a new toy in awhile. :)
