Can we add email provider-- I wonder of that effects confirmation time?
To be selfish... who's Gmail
Email was Apple

So I could safely say that we are infuriated!
Meaning 16Paws and I (only). I might go up to Maxfield early next week and order 1 or 2 more.
Ahhh, see? The use of a plural pronoun indicated multiple people's level of infuriation with stocking walk in orders ahead of pre-orders, which IN MY OPINION is wrong.
If we are going to play the grammar game, the only pronoun you used was "it" referencing the situation. You never indicated possession of said infuriation, neither "you" nor "we", only the nonspecific "it".
This is fun.
Logically, if I don't use a pronoun, it is safe to assume I am referencing my own opinion and not everyone's. Example: you walk into a room and say "wow, it is cold" I am relatively certain no one would mistake that you implying everyone thinks it is cold whether it is true or not.
Glad that's over.
Anyway no charges here. Oh well.
No surprise that you are waiting on your husband's, as people seeing movement only on xx:05:xx orders (for 42mm BSB) at this time. Yeah, it is very frustrating to be waiting for more than a week and just missed the order in minutes.
so looks like us xx:06:xx arent getting the watch this week afterall. Oh well, next week it is.
You can expect your watch the next day, as long as your card/account charged and ready for the UPS shipment (Next day air saver) cut off time. Good luck.
Except for Saturdays unless there is a failed attempt of Friday. Apparently they are not delivering on the weekends, even though apple reps are saying they are. (At least that is what happened last weekend, but the past does not necessarily dictate future events)
I wouldn't count on! I think there are a lot of miscellaneous xx:04 and xx:05 still out there to be filled. I've also noticed that the pace of fulfillments is slowing down tremendously.
xx:06:48 waiting impatiently
Where's my Watch Apple WTF! I love technology but not as much as my wife and me. But I still love technology! ALWAYS AND FOREVER!
Why is it taking so long....hopefully they will have it right when it comes. I am just ranting because it makes me feel better!
12:06:48 processing purgatory FOREVER! But hopefully not to much longer - for real this is taking forever.
Sigh
Here's to hoping

From the posts in the Maxfield thread, it seems like they are barely selling a few hundred a day. Hardly enough to significantly delay shipment to people who preordered.
does anyone know how long it takes from "preparing for shipment" to actually being shipped? mine just updated sometime this morning... perhaps a saturday delivery is expected?
my order confirmation email was on 4/10 at 3:05AM EST. Washington DC.

I'm with you, a couple hundred would hardly make a dent in the grand scheme of things, but a walk in sale just rubs me the wrong way when there are folks that ordered on the 10th still waiting is my only point.

I agree - stocking what appears to be the most popular while pre-orders are being slowly filled just sticks in my craw.
And it would be another thing if they at least had it to wait a week or 2 before they got it. In a lot of instances they are getting them the next day.
Now that is an idiom I haven't heard in a long time. Australian I assume?

Exactly.
Got my Watch this morning. Happy it wasn't the 3:30 pm Delivery I usually get from UPS
Haven't had much chance to play with it yet, since I am at Work. Band is comfortable. Heart Rate monitor works well. Wish there were more Clock Faces
