Got My Confirmation Number

Yikes
Was @ Sewell here in Dallas earlier and nothing was going through.
Just got a call from the manager and he said I was on the wait list... may be the most disappointing experience ever. After years of waiting for the Solstice to come to fruition, it's no wonder why this is my first GM experience.
Interesting article in the NY Times today about GM and the downward spiral... they certainly aren't going to woo many of us European auto drivers back to US models with execution like this.

Got in, not sure what that means
I also got in, but the message says,
Confirm Order
You have successfully completer the customer order intake process. The order is CONDITIONALLY complete until the call center verifies the order with the customer.

Pending
Hope this works, I am not sure what all that means.
.
I feel bad for those who didn't get in - maybe you will get the last laugh when the first 1000 cars come in December, and you get one in the spring for $3000 below MSRP.

Ok, it's 3:27pm on the east coast now, and all I know is that when I actually went to the Pontiac dealer on RT. 22 in NJ, at 1:20pm, I did get to see the car and have my Apprentice brochure signed by Raj. As far as the Early Bird Order goes, there were five files ahead of me that had been faxed in last night to the salesguy. Gotta luv it.
So... I call another dealer from their parking lot and ask how many people does he have on board? He says 4, I'd be the fifth. He took information and I haven't heard a word back since 2:20pm.

Just got my call from the dealer
Mine was time stamped at 1:54 My dealer started inputing orders at 1:45 in Florida. He said they will contact me to confirm the order. Are the time stamps local time? Or are they stamped by the mainframe at the local time in Detroit?

What a nightmare at my dealer!
The dealer had 2 computers and one laptop going at 2 p.m. The server timeouts were horrible! There were 4 screens to get through to have the orders processed. The first order was on the third screen when the other 2 computers were able to get the first 2 orders in. The first order never made it through as all 1000 cars were gone by 2:45 p.m.
It was not a pretty site to see someone's dreams crushed that fast.

WOOO HOOOOOOOooooo! Looks like I got in at 2:36:11 ... hopefully that means it's a lock anyway. I did get a confirmation sheet. Does anybody know for sure if that's it? There was no mention of a waitlist, just that I will need to be called. Assuming everything checks out, I'm in ... right?
