I bet your are right at them shippin gall at once but when I was in manufacturing.. we would be held to a promise of qty/date... I think everyone tries to give a date that you feel good about making.. It is always better to ship earlier then promise then to be late and have to ask forgiveness <g>

Anyway, I am guessing that they are doing do same whoever is pressing CDs (or whatever they call it) is making a promise to Dell that x number will arrive at a certain date and then so many a week.. purely speculation but also kinda an educated guess...

That would also cause Dell to ship all at same time for ther orders in sequence of date ordered.. But.. their 3rd party people may also be doing the drop shipping for Dell.. again at so many a week...

Who cares really.. I just hate to wait!.. But I think Dell is being fair on their policy and prices.. expecially with the CD kit..

Chris did one of the best reviews I have read to date. I even sent the link to two IPAQ friends (yes.. I am still friends with them) and they enjoyed the read for the detaisl to 2003 OS..
