It will work without the 10.6.2 update, but there are a few features that will be unavailable. I would say this coming Wednesday (Oct 28) it will start shipping. Amazon will more than likely start shipping the same day as Apple. If you recall, Amazon had the MacMini up and shipping hours after Apple announced them.

After OS X 10.6.2 comes out, since it is a prerequisite for using this mouse.

Ah, this is interesting. I didn't know it would require an update to Snow Leopard, but I can see why it would. Then the update should come pretty soon, as Apple says (on the Apple Store) they will start shipping the mouse in "5-7 business days".

From the description: Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0So you don't need Snow Leopard. You just need Mouse Software Update 1.0.

It's not released by Apple yet; their official store shows a 5-7 day ship estimate. I'd imagine Amazon will be around the same time.

I ordered mine on Sept 21 and still have had no luck, unfortunately, I can't just cancel my order and buy straight from apple because of some amazon gift cards I used to purchase it. When these gift cards are gone, I hope to not be doing much, if any, more business with amazon.

I ended up cancelling my pre-order on Amazon and ordering on Newegg (same price; free shipping) earlier today. Status of my order: shipped. Sorry, Amazon. You're still showing this item on pre-order, so I went where my money will actually buy a computer, not just the promise of one some day in the unspecified future. In the end, it might be that my order from Amazon would have arrived on the same day. However, I prefer the certainty of knowing my computer is already on the way from Newegg versus the uncertainty of "pre-order."

I talked to an Amazon rep who just confused the issue more. My order still says that the expected delivery date is October 29th. The Amazon rep said that there aren't any in stock and that they won't be shipping today. When I asked him when it WOULD ship, he said that my estimated delivery date was October 29th. When I pointed out that this couldn't possibly be accurate given what he had just said, he responded with, "the time is given to you is accurately calculated by the packaging department.So I assure you that you will get it on time." UPDATE: Sure enough, this morning I got an email saying, "We're still trying to obtain the following item[s] you ordered..." so, no, they weren't shipping any of these out on Friday. I guess we all just get to wait it out now.

I placed my order as soon as Amazon had it available as 'Pre-Order'. When the order was placed, my order status was "Not Yet Shipped". As of Thursday, the status has changed to "Shipping Soon" Don't know if that helps, just FYI :) Edit: my order just changed to "shipped" and will arrive Monday!

I was very upset that Amazon in fact did not get their dates straight (I called customer service when I got the update). I have ordered mine 10/3 with their promise to deliver by 10/19. Well, I was promised early december delivery date but got my shipment today. Thanks, Amazon. I also ordered one from apple.com, got it in 2 days with free shipping also (I did have to pay tax). One difference though, apple sent my merchandise in a very safe and sturdy packaging. well cushioned and supported. Amazon shipment came in a box with very minimal cushion. Items rattled when I picked it up from my mailbox. My consolation is that it came prior to Christmas.

I preordered mine and on my Amazon order page it says that "this item will NOT arrive by December 24th" I had heard mid-December but based on the fact that it will not arrive by Christmas, I'm not real confident in a December release.

I just got the "items shipping soon" notice on my S90 purchase. I'd pre-ordered on September 25th, so Amazon seems to be prioritizing based on pre-order order (sorry for the double word use!) -- at least based on the comments above mine.Good thing, too; I was just about to head over to a few Best Buy stores in my area, and, based on any supposed success, cancel the Amazon pre-order. It all worked out in the end for me -- it's all good. :-)UPDATE: My order has just shipped, due to arrive on October 14th. Awesome!

I purchased my unit on Sept 13th, and it got shipped earlier this evening(Sept 15th). This albeit the fact that amazon still reports this product in "pre-order" mode. I anticipate receiving the product Sept 19th. Hopefully will post a review soon.

Hello, we ship orders the day they are received as long as the order is sent to us by Amazon by 4pm EST. We use FedEx, so the delivery date is dependent on your distance from our warehouse in MI. Thanks, and please let us know if you have any other questions.

Amazon now shows only 16 Imacs available and it says "order soon". Usually when they are running low and expect to get more it says "more on the way" after "order soon". I wonder if this is a sign that Apple is putting out a refresh soon?

All the FBA listings, including ours, should be in stock and shipping now (immediately) from Amazons warehouse. Not sure why they are showing all those in stock listings as Dec 28th. We have units at Amazon ready to ship.

It's now 12/28/07. So what's the situation w/ leopard etc? Has any one ordered a macbook from Amazon since nov 25th 07?Amazon.com? What's the deal with not stating what OS comes with the Macbooks you are shipping out? It might be actually causing drop in Macbook sales for you guys. Get with it and state that 'yes they do come with Leopard now!' I'd rather purchase from Amazon (less scary return policy) but I might have to order from Macconnection.com as the price is the same (actually with them you don't have go thru the hassle of the rebate as their price reflects $100 discount) and their site clearly states that they do come with Leopard and iLife 08....

It seems like Amazon received a small initial shipment and those who got in early had theirs shipped. Based on the availability from the Apple online store, it might be a month or more before Amazon may get another shipment of MBPsI checked JR.com and they have them in stock. YMMV thoughhttp://www.jr.com/apple/pe/APP_MC975LL_SL_A/

I have the same question. I place my order a couple days ago, still not shipping yet.Not really sure what's wrong with Amazon right now.
