For what it's worth, Apple indicated one week shipping on mine (ordered on Saturday) and it was supposed to arrive after XMas. Just got a notification saying it would arrive this Friday.

That's really good to hear. I almost ordered on Sunday evening but I did not want to test the '1 week' ship date, really wanted to get it before Christmas.

Mine should be here tomorrow evening (via TekServe).

No, it takes more than a little persistence. Some of us have been trying that for a couple of weeks with no luck in our respective areas. The 16GB wifi only models are in very high demand (or very short supply or both).

I guess I got lucky, maybe because I got a 16gb LTE model.

Wow, now that's service. What happens to the first one they sent? Are they giving you a prepaid shipping label to return it?

Not sure what will happen with the original order, fedex tracker says its still in new jersey. I think tekserve can call the shipment back. Even if it managed to somehow come through, i wont be home to receive it as i'll be out of the country until 2nd week of jan.

I just experienced the same. Ordered on the Apple website on Sunday morning. Got a notification this morning that it shipped already. Scheduled for delivery on Thursday. Great gift day before the world ends. :)

Turns out the mini is arriving today and not tomorrow. Three-day shipping. Pretty incredible considering the Apple site initially indicated I'd get it on the 28th.
