How long does it take to defrost a turkey?

On a FAN-assisted automatic oven, the longest time I have seen for defrosting a turkey is 3-1/2 hours, with a timer. However, most turkeys sold today come with a packaging system that includes a refrigerant pack, which increases the rate of defrosting dramatically.  Based on my informal survey, many people expect the defrosting to take closer to 2 hours than 3-1/2 hours.
