I placed my reservation for a Smart car in March, 2008. In September I received the email to configure my Smart.

After configuring the Smart delivery date estimator (DDE) showed delivery between December, 2008, and February, 2009. Then after a couple of weeks it showed November, 2008, to January, 2009. Then the delivery date disappeared for a couple of weeks. Then it came back with a specific day interval. I can't remember what it said at that time but today it is showing February 17 to May 18, 2009. Every day it seems to move out another couple of days. It will look like the one in the photo, if I ever get it!

Of course, if I ever do get it the next challenge will be figuring out how to mount an antenna. The body is composed of plastic panels. The silver part in the photo is a Tridion safety cell made of steel. I really don't want to go drilling into that. I have seen some hams use some type of glass mounted VHF/UHF antenna so I'll have to check into that.
