on the ground the whole time it's in transit. So yes, it can go ground
in semi's to their Ft Worth hub (it appears) and then gets slingshot'ed
through the air to the various master hubs. You've got one up there
in Chicagoland that has an airstrip. Ours in Cleveland doesn't, it's
gotta land at the airport and then get trucked out to the giant sort
facility a little south. That extra bit means we couldn't get a 1-day
like you're saying.
Who'd you have to call to get a tracking #? I'm just looking on the
Support site where you fill out the ticket, etc. and it shows the S/N
of any box(es) you have registered under that Live ID. Nothing about
delivery dates either. Since I've had no e-mails from MS on this
go-round, they posted up the tracking # on the Support site and
I've had to do the rest from there.
What's the FedEx tracer saying for an expected delivery date?
