just checked my status today and its shipped! order on 3/30 with overnite delivery...so lets hope it comes tomorrow, i will go nuts if it does! i was so close to giving up and paying an extra 75 bucks and buying it online or at target or somethin...glad i waited another day!

now i can finally put my cardboard s200 to rest...last nite my car hit 175,000 miles and i had the perfect photo opportunity but alas, all i had was my cardboard s200. well i took the picture with the cardboard camera and then proceeded to cry for my lack of a real camera.

has anyone received a fedex number that is recognized yet?

NO FAIR!

Where's my S330!?!?!

They are also now in-stock at Dell!!! Waiting sucks. Maybe now I'll be more sensitive to being on time to things. People hate to wait around! Especially for a shiny stainless steel new toy!!!

1. S330
2. Ordered on 4/22
3. CA
4a. Delayed 7/16/2002 (Holy Shiznit!)
4b. on or before 07/16/2002
5a. Nothing interesting... I'm hoping to replace my sluggish Nikon 775 with this.
5b. From reading dpreview.com's review and looking at timings... it doesn't seem any faster than the Nikon 775. Darn!
6. Have not called... I'm playing the pathetic waiting game.

[unclebud]

waited until someone posted about delay with 330 to ask if anyone's noticed that target seems to have dropped the price of the s200 to $349.99 (the sign said down from $399.99 lol, they just changed the displays!). just posting in case anyone wants to know, maybe they can turn it into something *shrugs* hotter--does target still do the 10% when one registers for credit card?
$349.99
-$34.99
= $315

The 330 came yesterday. It's great looking, but boy is it complicated. Icon-based menu system with a good user guide, but print too small for my old eyes.

Seriously has anyone put together a cheat sheet on how to use this thing? An Idiot's Guide? If so, where? I am finding it intimidating. My last camera was a Canon A-1 SLR and is was pretty automatic.

 

[blahsome]

This once again demonstrated how #$%@ a Dell CSR (or their inventory system) can be. I called Dell yesterday just to see why the camera was reported as IN STOCK on their website.

CSR: "Well, it says 7/23/02, so that's probably when we are shipping it. The estimate is usually accurate."
Me: "But the website now says in stock."
CSR: "Yeah, that's wrong. We haven't updated the webpage. " (Duh?)
Me: "So it's not in stock?"
CSR: "Definitely not. Do you like to cancel it and order something else?"
Me: "Nah."

Two hours later, my camera was shipped...

 

[DQderrick]

Here's a little information I have put together after spending 30 minutes changing my order from the S330 to the S200. I came to the realization that if they take the same quality of images, I'd rather have the smallest possible.

After it was all said and done, I called this number 1-877-879-3355 x62470. This got me to Dell's Software & Accessories phone order people. They had no problem transfering my $15 off coupon, 10% off coupon, and free overnight shipping to the new order while cancelling the other. So the new total came to $299 and change (S200). My old total was $334.10 (s330).

Now... I'm just waiting to see when they update my online order status information...

UPDATE: The new order is posted but my S330 order is still not cancelled. Oh man.

Well... 7/8 for the S200 is better than 7/16 on my S330
