I ordered one 7/27ish (don't remember exact date but last week of july) and I finalls cancelled it in September when they told me it as backordered again for another 5 weeks. Did you get the T61P by any chance?

I ordered an X61.

As an aside, I heard T61 laptops have been delayed for months because Lenovo ran out of RAM supplies.

Spoke to a guy at Lenovo who confirmed that my laptop hasn't shipped, and that it wasn't gonna ship until after Christmas.

Also saw this on another forum:

Spoke with a LEVEL 2 rep @ Lenovo who was WELL AWARE of the issue. Apparently the tracking #'s are wrong because the addresses associated with them are/were incorrect and they had to PULL THE ENTIRE SHIPMENT from shipping. It's 500 X series units that are delayed. THEY HAVE NOT SHIPPED! Anyone who says so is incorrect. They are still in China and are working with UPS in applying new tracking #'s with the correct addresses to the packages. They told me this will be completed by Monday the 24th of December and they should all ship out by a few days after Christmas. WHAT A LOAD OF ****!

Pathetic! Not even an apology. I even asked why didn't you e-mail the other 500 or so people about this and why are they left in limbo? I've spent hours on the phone trying to find out the truth to this situation and nobody has done a damn thing to assist me. I had to do all the calling and follow up. My own damn rep hasn't returned any of my 5 calls and voicemails.
