    My m1210 just shipped today and i was wondering what day it might get to my house. I ordered it from the Dell Outlet and i live in Wisconsin. The problem is, i wont be home Thursday or Friday so i wont be able to recieve it if it comes those two days. If i were not home, how does Dell handle that? I remember i got a mp3 player once and wasnt able to recieve it at the door. It just sat outside for 2 days... I got the free 3-5 day shipping for my m1210. hopefully, someone could give me a little more information on Dell's shipping. Thanks in advanced.

    They told me mine would come in 5 days.. but it came in 2. I was very happy. I was going on vacation and I was actually able to use it before going XD

    There could be problems, but use the tracking number to see what's going on.

    Well.. it took mine 2 days from the time I bought it. I also got the tracking number the next morning.. I was very surprised. I heard they had a lot of laptops on hand.
