As you can see from the above screenshot I placed my order for an HP Mini-Note on April 12, 2008 and at the time was given an estimated shipping date of today (April 18) and sadly there has not been any mention from HP concerning my shipment. I checked my bank account to see if my card had been charged and nothing, thinking it was a little strange I then logged into the View Order Status page on HP.com only to have it get worse.

I saw that my order was indeed placed, as confirmed by my initial email and the listing (as seen above) but when I clicked on the “View” button I was presented with this lovely message.

I saw “not found in the Vista” and can only imagine what that really means, but promptly picked up the phone and gave HP a call, after only being on hold for a short few minutes I was surprised to get an agent, but it just left me with a bad feeling.

The agent asked me for my order number, then put me on hold to check, she came back in just about a minute and told me she would have to get back to me in a few hours because she needed to check on it. So now I sit here and wonder when and if I will receive my shipment notification. Its now been those few hours and sadly I do not think it will be shipping today.
