I received my tracking number and my sms from DHL. If everything OK the next checkpoint in Leipzig in Germany (I think)

I was/am hoping they would come up with a simple solution to utilizing the PCIe/NVMe drive into the boot up.
Even with the eMMC it is a fantastic laptop, BUT, they did add the PCIe slot into the mix, soo close....
It does have some boot options 'out of the box'.

Waiting has been easier, since they have continued to improve it while we are "Waiting"
*
Do I want it today, or wait an extra week while they make it even better...? They are making the wait seem WORTH while.

I know Luke is looking into it and Der Geist had mentioned elsewhere in the forum (I can't find it, but please look for it) that a few of the first hundred were held back....Try to find his post in the forum and see what he said yourself.
Please hang on!!! It's worth the wait!! Good Luck!! :-)

I will back-peddle through some posts and see what your are referring to. I honestly have no problem waiting, I just got a bit alarmed when I read a post by Pine64 that all batch 1 pro's have shipped on Mastodon.

Yeah, it can be a bit frustrating since clear understanding isn't always apparent, to me at least. However, looking at this as an international undertaking, especially by people and not corporations, this is a remarkably smooth operation. 
And I'm of the mind that if folks were keeping us up to date on a "play-by-play" basis, they'd spend more time telling us what's going on instead of getting things done....
That said, everyone's patience during this whole event is quite uplifting for me. How often is it these days we "all get along"? :-)
