Mines still in the "pending" state. Got a bad feeling about this since i've never had this message before on other stuff i've bought from them. Anyone know how well gta vice city plays on these lcd monitors? Thats about the only game I play.

Mine is still pending also, but I would think the reason for that was because it was ordered on the weekend.. yet, it's still pending today.. :(

My order for a 19" LCD was shipped today and should arrive tomorrow. The price breakdown is still the "special deal" price so I guess it worked out.

Just thought I'd let you all know.

My order got pushed back to June 25 too, but Dell usually ships before then anyways. The delay shipment dates are usually quite conservative.

It appears my order has been shipped (got a tracking number as well when I logged on to view the order status). I think its still in transit to the carrier so I cant really verify it the carrier has it. Hope this comes through.. been looking for a good 20inch LCD panel.

Same, just checked my 20" LCD and it's been shipped. The tracking number doesn't work yet, but I hope it's just the transit to the carrier also. :)

Oddly enough my monitor was shipped too. My monitor was done by Fedex and my Kingston CF cards were shipped by UPS. Can't wait to get them!

Did you monitor happen to start with a letter for the tracking number Dell gave you? I've heard on FW that FedEx uses no letters in their numbers.. :(

I have two tracking numbers (for two Planar PL201M displays) each of which begin with a W followed by all numbers . . . Wait! I just went back to look again, and now the Dell site says In transit to local carrier, like it did earlier today. Edit: Now it's back to tracking numbers.

Got my 20.1" today. If you got a tracking number that starts with a letter - it's Airborne (not FedEx like it says) and you can track it at Airborne's site by taking the letter off of the front of the tracking number.

Thanks for the info. My Planar is on its way!
BTW, www.airbourne.com has some "interesting" tracking info :D

Imported: It does start with a letter W. I checked out Airborne's site and the tracking number does work for me, so all is good. It looks like the monitor will be home tomorrow, too bad I'm not there to test it :(

Well my 20" just shipped yesterday at the double 15% off. I had ordered a 18.1" through them when I ordered my computer back with the 15% email coupon, and they delayed the shipping 2 weeks longer than originally stated, so a CSR is checking if they can apply the 15% on top of the 20" from this deal, if so that would make it three 15% offs for less than $600. :-D This probably belongs in Brag 'n' Moan, but I didn't get the official word on it yet.

THANK YOU

I've been checking fedexes site and wondering why the tracking number does not work. Sure nuf it's right there on airborne.

Does not give you a lot of confidence in dells tracking system....

I also got the delayed email. Just once I'd like to order something from them, and get it when I'm supposed to.:disgust:
