Don't you just hate waiting for a new toy to arrive!

[amir_j]

Bought a samsung Nc10 netbook and keeping an eye on the tracking status all day - agony as delivering it to work and if not here in a few hours can't play over the weekend

Will it come? Needs to be in South manchester.

You should have ordered some new rear dampers for a SAAB - ordered 3pm yesterday, here at 11 this morning.

Sorry, that's not helping, is it?

Would have thought it would be with you sometime today being as it says it's been loaded on the van for delivery.

Bit of an odd thread really!

Should have got a proper laptop.

It'll be with you today as van is out for delivery! Assuming they can find you!

Similar tracking details/info to ParcelForce (had some stuff delivered from the USA).

You've just pissed on my bonfire. Eagerly awaiting a PS3 delivery ordered on Monday hoping it would be delivered by the weekend ... not much chance of it looking at your history, similar system it appears.

Play.com gave me no other delivery options even though the item was in stock. I would have gladly paid £20 for a quicker delivery.

I got it a month ago. ordered from play first and a week later it still has not been shipped. by then amazon's price dropped below play's. Cancelled the play order, placed with Amazon, had it 12 hour later. Highly recommend buying a 2GB RAM stick from amazon to go with it.

Would a dell XPS qualify? this is a toy for general carrying about and messing about with. Was a bargain price (off a classifieds ad off another forum, 3 weeks old from Dixons but his missues didnt like it, bargain price)

You'll be disappointed when it arrives and, once the novelty of the size and fantastic looks wear off, you realise you should have gone for a slightly bigger unit with a 11.6" widescreen and a full size keyboard that makes it so so so so so much more useable.

Its here :-), just turned on but no internet or apps installed so back in the box till get home.

Doubt it as had a good play with one in a store first. Will be carried pretty much everywhere with a usb modem ( bagged this online too, an unwanted gift- 12 months T-mobile for £60) when dont need the full laptop and will only be used for email/browsing/train journeys etc. Have a smartphone but occasionaly find it limiting when need to write a really long email etc or flash driven sites so this will fill the gap nicely.

Wanted the smallest possible one and this was a good price and reputation is good.
