I'll get upset if the 8th comes and goes with no progress.
Have you still not moved to preparing to ship but your card has been charged? If that is the case I would call. That sounds like a legitimate reason to speak to customer service.

Wow, this is a major disaster on Angela's part. Way to piss off your most loyal base of customers by having them get leapfrogged by people who were supposed to receive their orders in June
Knowing Tim Cook's history, and the way he handled the maps fiasco and Scott Forstall, it wouldn't surprise me in the least to see her gone. This is a terrible roll-out all around. They literally announced the product back in September and had plenty of time to figure out how to get orders to people that placed one within the first minute of launch (it literally took me about 15 seconds to get my order through).
Yeah, I still can't believe those with June delivery date will get it this Friday, while those with 04/24 (will not).
I hope that Angela got fired.
Still nothing. Patiently waiting. I heard there are a couple UPS planes due to be here this evening around 5 eastern so don't give up total hope!
Yeah, because Angela is responsible for the product mix that operations hands her to ship.![]()

She is in charge of the operation. Or don't you know business management 101?

So my tracking number is for my charger cable, not my watch. :-(
I had my order in by 3:08 am (time of confirmation email from Apple) and still processing. Total bummer.
Don't all the Apple shipments from China go through Louisville?
A friend would sell it to you at cost not a "small markup" sounds like taking advantage....I've made peace with my early May delivery date, but am going to pick up a 42mm SS with classic buckle from a friend who ordered two, but has since decided he prefers the other model he ordered. He's only asking for a moderate mark up. My plan was to pick up another one later once shipping times improve to gift to my partner; I will just swap bands when the Milanese arrives and gift him that watch.
Still getting one on launch day and getting a second one sooner than I thought I would, so all in all it's not working out so badly for me.

Agreed. That's bs.
Well...more like an acquaintance. # He had another offer and I outbid it.

I got the "We're working on your order" email of death last nightOrdered at 3:07. Doesn't look like I'll get mine tomorrow. Would have been nice to have it to play around with over the weekend.

*sigh* Clearly you don't. Operations is what produces the Watch. Retail is what sells it. Retail doesn't get to choose how many show up. Retail has input and can make requests. For that matter, she may not have had a choice on the launch date.
Now, personally, I would probably have just delayed the launch a month and taken the heat for it, but that wasn't up to me. Fundamentally, the problem with this launch is that Apple has what looks a lot like no more than a few hundred K units to sell and their best guess on variations, combined with millions of pre-orders.
Mostly, though, people need to calm the hell down. It's just a gadget. (And no, I don't expect to receive mine tomorrow.)
