Trust me, you're anything but alone. Ordered 3.2 I5 on Nov 30th at 8:30 EST and still no movement. They did put the credit card hold against my account on the 10th. Just to get my hopes up. Sick puppies.....
Still in the club too!
I have to admit that I'm really losing patience though, now it just plain sucks.
Me too!
I feel your pain. I ordered at 6:45am CST in Missouri and I'm still stuck at "Processing items". Exact same config as you and Apple's estimated delivery dates are the same as well. Haven't called to get shipping changed yet. I'm tempted though.

Those of you with standard UPS shipping to Toronto, what kind of travel pattern has your iMac taken?
So, while we're just sitting around, what do you guys primarily use your computers for? Casual internet/word processing/etc? Gaming? Photo/video/audio editing? Research? Finance?
As my sn implies, I primarily do work in music - in Logic Pro with tons of plugins. I actually have the rest of my rig set up, and can't wait to switch from my 2008 MacBook (which got me through college) to the 27" iMac. However, with a nicer system, I'm also hoping to do some gaming - finally check out Portal 2 and Assassin's Creed. Maybe Guild Wars?
What about you?

Aww, please think good thoughts for me too!
I don't wanna be last! Even though I claimed I would be."The migratory pattern of the Mac has long been studied... traveling south for the winter, the Mac tend to stay in the flock. Older, less capable members are often left behind. The leader of the flock is always the Mac with the biggest wingspan, able to signal the way to the rest of the flock."
Update!
My iMac has shipped via Fedex. Status was "preparing" for about 20 hours; when I just checked I had a shipping email at 4:03AM (PDT). The email said delivery on December 18, but the tracking shows delivery by 10:30AM on December 17! Since some of you have gotten free items, I think I will call to see if I can get a Super Drive claiming that I didn't know the drive was eliminated.

I made it to shipping this morning. I was in that first few minutes group with an i7,1TBF,680MX. There is hope.
FDX28 continues to Nashville actually... Well depending on what's faster, I'm thinking yours should be on one of the two flights tomorrow morning
Yup, my tracking says: FedEx International Priority
Looking up rates and transit times (Shipping on Dec. 13) on the FedEx site, it says:
Fri Dec 14, 2012 10:30 AM FedEx International Priority® 3265.49
$3000+?!?! Apple must have a really good contract with FedEx! I'm not sure if mine will get here tomorrow though, as the last activity is:
10:00 pm At local FedEx facility SHANGHAI CN
Looks like I may have missed the flight and will be sitting til tomorrow (which means delivery on Monday)
A couple of data points, just to ease your anxiety . . .
My FedEx shipment had four data tracing points in Shanghai, 1) Pick up, 2) Shipmnt Info Sent, 3) Left FedEx origin Facility, 4) Intl Shpmt release Import. The next data trace was "Arrived at FedEx location" Memphis.
It made the FDX90 flight the night it posted those four Shanghai tracing points.
All times are Local Scan Time
Good luck and god's speed!

It seems that all those who received a package the next day had tracking history similar to yours.... The difference with mine is that it went to a local FedEx facility instead of "Intl Shpmt release Import" which I believe is customs... This tells me that I missed the cutoff. Hopefully I'll see the Shipment Release tomorrow morning

Looks like ours are sitting together. They should play some Battlefield 3 or something to pass the time.
