South Florida... confirmation at :07 and NOTHING.

I called apple yesterday and they said my order processed at :05.

This is the most frustrating launch ever. I've preordered the iPhone 3gs, 4, 4s, 5, 5s, 6 and the iPad, iPad 2, and the iPad air. This is so much worse than any of those.

The fact that there has been no update and no communication in over 2 weeks is really bad.

Totally agree, I've also had every iphone and ipad on launch day whether waiting in line or pre-ordering and this is a disaster, as there is no communication from corporate as to any specifics on wait. The EOD was not in any way helpful. My watch order went through immediately via The Apple Store app using ApplePay but none the less there is no info or movement on shipping.
 
I'm in Philly area with confirm time :08 --- NOTHING!!!

I spoke with Apple on chat yesterday and they told me that my order came to them at 00:08.25 Meaning that I was 25 seconds into the the 8th minute after orders went live when Apple got my order. No movement for me.
 
Apple just trolled me hard...

my email confirm was 3:07 but apple told me my timestamp was 00:04:14...have zero idea why mine has not shipped yet.
 
Very disappointing to hear that even people who ordered within 10 minutes of pre-ordering are not seeing any movement. I just ordered on the 25th and got a "June" estimate, and from the sounds of it, I'll be waiting most likely until the latter half of June. Totally my fault for waiting so long to order, but still.
 
Nope, nothing... I'm on the East Coast (NJ) and have a confirmation time of xx:10.

also east coast with order time of 3:08 and confirm time of 3:10 and I'm in the next shipping bracket haha so you must have beaten me by seconds.
Heres to hoping for quick dispatch of Milanese loops lol
 
Yall flame away if you want but f__k you on this one Apple. I am the kind of customer you want to hold on to. I grew up working on Windows PCs and now make a living fixing them and managing windows networks. I swore by them. Then you beat people to the punch by introducing iPhone. I didn't jump on until I realized nothing comparable was coming out soon. I have owned every model of iPhone except 3G and 4s. I swore I would never get a mac. I did about a year ago and I love it. I am the exact customer you want to keep gaining. Until now I have been so happy with Apple. You have been my Amazon of the tech world. I know me canceling an order will never dent your enormous pocketbook but if this is a preview of times to come then people like me won't put up with this s__t. Someone like Amazon will figure out how to do this and effectively communicate with their very loyal fan base. Ok there is my rant for today.

My story is very similar to yours. I'm a long time early adopter and purchased devices on launch day in the past without issue. I even work in IT so I'm use to the ridiculing from coworkers.

I'm pretty close to considering cancelling my order as well. Some of the "magic" of this device goes away when it takes so long to get it.

Unfortunately when Amazon releases their watch you can guarantee they will be selling something on the screen every moment they can. "What time is it? Time to buy the latest Kindle!"
