    How accurate is DHL's estimated delivery date? I'm wondering because my package arrived in my city's regional center tonight, but it has an estimate of Thursday. If its in my city, wouldn't it go out for delivery tomorrow?

    It's like Dell's Estimated Ship Date... it will ship to your door either on or before that date. Otherwise they do refunds or something like that...

    You will not get it today just cause it made it to your city. DHL will hold it in your city at the hub and wait untill the day its supposed to be delivered and then bring it to you. You should call DHL and ask them if you can pick it up .

    That has been my experience with DHL, HCW. You should pick it up at the hub.

    I'd say with all the trouble we're going through....I'd get "sick" and have to head home! Congrats on actually receiving a 1520...lol! They do exist!
