Has anyone who ordered the "600MHz" version from Buy.com gotten a cancellation notice or an email asking to pay more?

Nope..........I got sick of waiting and cancelled myself!

mvenini11...I ordered the Q1U-V from buy.com. They better not cancel that one because nothing has changed with it. I had ordered the Q1U-EL from shopblt.com but they jacked up the price on me, then I cancelled it. Thus I'm still sticking with my buy.com order, as futile as that may be.

Mazda_3s, is that related to the 'upgrade'?

My 6-cell extended battery for the Q1-Ultra shipped today from buy.com So far I have been very pleased with my buy.com experience. I got my Q1-ultra over a week ago, and the extended battery should arrive by Wednesday. All for under $1200 bucks shipped to my door.

deezmfnutz could you please post some pics to see how q1 ultra looks like with the extended battery ?

Does it become much bigger and heavier ?

I ordered the NP-Q1UA000, the extended battery, the dual layer dvd drive, and the gps unit from Buy.com on 5-26 and so far, as of 6-9, only the the dual layer drive has shipped (on 6-8)

nemi:

Well the $1199 Q1U on the CWD showed (and still shows) 1-3 day to ship on product page.

I palced order yesterday. My account now says "back ordered - no ETA".

Just got email back from CDW cusotmer service:

"ETA is 6/13/2007"

 

It has shipped. Ordered from CDW on 6/4/2007 and it shipped (I have fedex trackign number) on 6/8/2007.

I can't wait :-)

rant warning:

Ok I'm pissed off now. I ordered last wed from costco with expedited shipping, and just had a costco cs rep call ingram micro. She said she spoke to the shipping manager and they said it will ship in the expected timeframe, and I should have it by this thur. It hasn't shipped yet?? Are they kidding? How is this "expedited" anything? I don't consider 8 days after I order something to be expedited......especially when it is shipping from california to california. Expedited means they get a full day after I order for "handling", and I get it a day or 2 after it ships.

end rant.

Has anyone had their Q1U ship within the last few days? And if so, when did you order and from where?

I have 5 units on order (4V, 1XP). The first order, with buy.com (5/26), just reads "on order", although the 6cell battery is to arrive tomorrow. The second order, with provantage.com (6/7), shipped yesterday and is to arrive on 6/15 (I have a tracking number). The third order, with shopblt.com (also 6/7), has an ETA of 6/13 for the V and 6/27 for the XP. The fourth order, with costco (6/8), was placed assuming that this meant they had stock and I'd have it RSN, but that still reads "in process". A CS type told me I'd have it tomorrow or Friday - sure...

So that's my tale. Provantage is winning on getting it shipped, BLT on their "real time availability" applet (though that's not as good as having the unit show up).

Okay, you could knock me over with a feather! Having thought uncharitable thoughts about Costco and CS reps, what came by UPS but a nice new Q1U-V. Alright - she's on the desk churning away. Haven't done anything of importance yet, but looking forward to putting her through her paces....

Ok, so how long did costco's shipper take to ship yours? Apparently mine shipped today,(email with tracking number received from costco.com) an entire WEEK after I ordered it with expedited shipping. Of course, they took so long to ship it that now I am out of town and will not be able to confirm delivery time, nor tear mine apart until next week. :(

 I wish I had it for my trip....this fuji q2010 with only 512mb ram is killing me.

I'm guessing mine came from Ingram Micro (based on address) and it was shipped 6/12, delivered 6/13. Still "in progress" on the costco site.

BLT is showing 39 in stock of the $1199 Vista model:
