FW16 Batch 1 Guild

I am saddened that my acting and feeling like a child waiting for Christmas is not sufficient for a variance.

Looks like batch 4 is kicking off! Does that mean that batch 1 is complete? I think I remember hearing that all future batches would be on hold until the delays were resolved. Is anyone in batch 1 still waiting for shipping confirmation?

I don’t think there was an official announcement like that :slight_smile:

Unofficially: I asked if anyone was still waiting to be charged about 48 hours ago (after the Linux keyboard batch got charged) and did not receive any “yes I’m still waiting” responses to it. If there are any outstanding orders still out there, they appear to be few and far between. I feel pretty confident in stating that Batch 1 is done at this point (at least unofficially). I also expect Batches 2 and 3 to be closing out shortly as they seem to be tying up all of the loose “supply chain” ends that were dragging things out for Batches 1 through 3. Again, all of this is unofficial data sourced from reports on this board. There are still many aspects that I don’t have visibility into.

Majority of the Batch 1 customers should be charged at this point.

heh. Delivery was planned for Monday 12th. Now they tell me it will be delivered today.
Nobody’s home … sigh Wonder what they’ll do.

Mine was scheduled for Monday as well, but it just got delivered. Happy times! I hope they reschedule yours for Monday.

@lbkNhubert @Crystalyne One virtual drink’s on me. :kissing_heart:

I’m curious who will be the last to receive the laptop.

Well, me - because I’m not home until tomorrow :smiley:

C’est la vie

You should redirect it to a pick up point… Don’t get it stolen!

Mine’s still scheduled for Monday, and looking at the tracking info there’s very little chance it’d get delivered today. We’ll see I guess!

Driver called me and proposed to get by Monday.
He’ll deliver the 13" for my daughter at the same time :}

Delivered. Unboxing now. Virtual drinks on me.

Final Update: Package was picked up at the local FedEx hub slightly after opening. The package is now at its final destination awaiting unboxing and further processing. This is the final update for this shipment.

My package was delivered to my local delivery hub for my pickup.
Excited to go get it in an hour and set it up.
Went ahead and picked it up. Gonna get the build docs up now.

Ah, I guess I must have dreamt this then, honestly not that far-fetched with how much Framework stuff I’ve been reading :stuck_out_tongue:

I think it was a speculation, I remember reading similar messages from other users :slight_smile:

Well, mine arrived today - as predicted by FedEx. Having had the experience of building my own 13", this build was a breeze. Installing Windows (yeah, I’m that kind of person) and setting it up to my personal preferences went smooth as can be, with the only hickup being the wifi card wasn’t working ootb with Win11, so I was happy to have the wifi thingy ready.

And man o man, is this thing awesome. Keyboard is very very nice, screen is tall and sharp, and it’s sooo fast. I love it already, way better than the 13" - except for the size and weight ofcourse :slight_smile:

Guess I really will be the last to get my laptop.
Despite my laptop arriving in the country, travelling the country for a bit, arriving at my local depot and being loaded and dispatched on a delivery van this morning, it’s only just now decided to pop up with a “customs clearance delay”.

Why on earth has the package being travelling the country for the past 4 days then!?! Surely it should still be at Stanstead (where Fedex seems to send UK airmail packages through).
