I ordered on 12/2 at around 11:45pm ET and mine is still in processing. My initial ship dates were 2-8th, but after asking for expedited shipping I'm in the 28-4th bracket. Now if I could only learn to have patience...

I'm in the same boat as you. I ordered around the same time, started with 1/2-1/8 and then moved to 12/28-1/4 after being upgraded to next day shipping.
How did you manage to get next day shipping? Did you specifically ask for it, or was it offered to you free of charge?
From what I heard from Apple, any backordered item ships out by the fastest method possible. The iMac is considered backordered I was told. Hope that means we'll all have next day shipping.
That is not true at all. There are many people who are still having theirs shipped standard shipping or 2-3 day, but not next day. I wish it were true, but it's not.
I called and asked about expedited shipping after originally going with standard....the rep put me on hold nod then came back and said he had upgraded me for free. I didn't ask for next day, that's just what popped up when I refreshed my order page after I got off the phone.
Is it correct to assume that if we can see ours move to prepare to ship by as late as Monday then we might see them by the end of the week?
Depends on the shipping method you chose. FedEx will make it by the end of the week but I'm pretty sure UPS would not
Still processing BUT, CC charge has gone thru so at least I know they haven't forgotten about me!!!!
I got no love over this weekend. Still processing. I do expect some action to start this week though.
