RE: US Mail PTF Orders

My ptf orders usually show up within 2-3 days.  Never more that that.

Wow.  Ordered the PTF media for HMC 5.2 - did this on Feb 28th.  

The front of the package says "Ship date 2/28/2006" and here it is the
16th of March and it showed up today.  This took so long I reordered the
package 2 days ago.  Good thing I didn't need the fix packs for my HMC
or anything.  Sheesh.

Anyone else having 2.5-week turnaround times on their PTFs?  Is this
IBM's way to ensure everyone does electronic delivery?
