Batch 2 - Intel 12th - Guild

Yeah, FedEx just needs a signature, they don’t care if it’s the person who’s name is on the package.

Mine does too, my fedex account notified me of a package incoming (as it does for anything they ship to my address) so I don’t think it’s related to an address issue–but then again it’s fedex so I wouldn’t rule it out entirely. Things happen, I wouldn’t worry unless it doesn’t clear up for a couple days.

Well, in my case (Germany) they didn’t require any signarure. They rang the door bell, I opened the door, they handed the package over to me and disappeared before I could even say “Thank you, have a nice day”.

Mine is now in Japan. Yesterday it was stuck in Taiwan.

Mine has finally made it to the destination sort facility in my state. Small chance it makes it here tomorrow, fingers crossed it’s here by at least Saturday, but it unfortunately might be here Monday when projected.

It appears things are going well for the package shopping.

FedEx is delivering the package today - ahead of the original estimate of Monday - the 12th of September.

RAM will be the identical 64 GB modules sold by Framework (purchased separately)
NvME will be the identical WD Black SN850 sold by Framwork (purchased separately)

I am currently installing POP!_OS as well as being configured/tuned. I am trying to have the identical settings as my Gen 1 model (Batch 6).

I would urge everyone to be patient as I believe this company is doing the best job possible to get the units fulfilled as soon as possible.

It updated to say out for delivery today, so things are looking up.

Supposed to be delivered today, but FedEx is fedexing, something is off. Maybe Monday, they told me.
Lesson of the day: FedEx Germany cannot call non German numbers. Don’t want to get political, but this makes me wish for greater EU coordination/integration. (Would also mean that FW could expand to the entire EU at once, not one country at a time)

Enjoy your packages/good luck to you all!

I am happy for all of you, but every day i get a bit more sad about the time passing by. :sob:
The notebook wont arrive on my birthday, that is quite sure. The hardest is not to know if it will arrive in september at all. The longer it takes the easier it gets to look for alternatives. :cry:

Mine currently is in France (hopefully) going through customs. Expecting it to arrive on Monday.

My laptop arrived several days early so I hope the same for you all. Supposed to arrive on Monday 9/12 and showed up 9/8. I’m on the east coast of the USA.

First impressions are very positive. Screen is gorgeous. Keyboard and trackpad are excellent so far. Very easy install of components on my 1260p DIY model. Installed companies win 10 image then upgraded to win 11 before installing drivers. Worked well through the whole process. Performance has been great so far. Very quick to boot. Only concern is fan noise. It’s quick to turn on the fan and quick to ramp up to full speed.

I’m in the same boat. Ordered 19th June and still at stage 2. In the most recent apology/update email they did see that some batch 2 orders might slip into next week so I guess we must be amongst those.

You’ve waited this long and it can’t be much longer now so hang on in there! I’m sure it will be worth the wait in the end.
