Shipped on 2/9/12 and arrived on 2/17/12 to Central Florida. Fit and finish seems great and all parts assemble smoothly. Don't know if the batteries were shipped charged but, of course, had to try it out. Put on the glasses I ordered with the package and as soon as I turned it on it started burning the green wrapping paper that surrounded the shipping package. Put the beam on the white wall and noticed that the beam shape is a small rectangle, not the dot I was expecting. From what I have read on the boards that shape is normal. I'll try and get some beam shots to follow but so far... very pleased with the overall process from order to shipping.
Thanks for a great product.
