Same here! My last notification said 3/10/2008. I'm starting to wonder
if this is some Microsoft ploy to get out of sending the almost-free
products out (delay, delay, delay again, until people simply forget
about it or cancel the order in disgust.) I am beginning to doubt I will
ever receive it, to be honest.

You can call the phone number in the email. They will tell you the
status of the order. Also, the email has a link to an order status page
- mine shows the order is "In Processing", whatever that means.

Good deal.

I'll give them a call Monday if it doesn't show up.
I'm not *that* anxious to use it till the first round
of patches hit the streets anyway.

Thanks.

My email has a phone number but no linky.

Could you post the URL, or is it a specific link for your order?

Same here. For the same reason, I'm willing to let them delay it even
for another few months, but I sure as hell don't plan to cancel the
order or let them simply forget to send it to me - not without a fight,
anyway. I've called them once to check status, and I'll do it again to
make sure it doesn't somehow fall through the cracks. ; )

I bought Office 2004 just before Office 2008 came out, and I sent in the form right away (along with the box top and receipt). I have heard nothing in about 6 weeks, and I wish there were a way to check on whether my form was received. I'm concerned that perhaps the envelope I sent the box top in got lost in the mail, in which case I believe I'd be pretty screwed.
