  hmm, describes it pretty good.  
I have No Idea why people say it is "cheaper than DHL"  ?
The package is one quarter the size of the Pinebook Pro package,  and a fraction of the weight.
Yet approximately half the price.  $33 verses $15.  USD -- So per pound of weight it IS more expensive !

   ( IF you buy 12 donuts for $12 USD,  or 1 donut for $6 USD,  ... is that really "Cheaper"  ? )

I will be surprised if it takes less than another week to actually "Leave New York"  

ONE Consolation is :
I suppose it does give the Software people a bit more time to move the operating systems closer to functioning..... ?

Starting to wonder myself when the "package" will leave NY.  Do you suppose there might be some sort of Coronavirus "hold/quarantine" being applied when Customs/airport/USPS saw China as country of origin?

So close, yet so far...

(Feb 04, 2020)

When it actually enters the USPS mail stream it will state that., 

Mine says " Processed through the facility ISC New York, NY  Febuary 02, 2020,  1:23pm"

No updates since, so Customs are still holding it.

I guess it is a plus it is finally in the destination country !

BUT it would not be surprising for New York Customs to hold it for a few weeks,

as they normally hold items originating from China....

Los Angeles Customs push them through in a few hours, not weeks.

I received an update saying it was in Queens, NY. I guess some of them have passed customs hopefully? Big Grin
