Yeah Have a classic that is displaying similarily on Fedex tracking I think it's broke right now
 
Prepared for shipment

Ordered on 6th evening 4:30 pm PDT
W309xxxx
Free shipping
Engraved

Status changed to "Prepared for Shipment" just minutes ago.
 
I ordered a 16GB touch and it still is "Not Yet Shipped." Why? Is anyone else having this problem?
 
About being shipped from the online store...I know a lot of you ordered way before me, seeing as how my order number is W313xxxx, but I just spoke to customer service about upgrading my shipping option from 2-3 day to overnight. He told me it's not gonna happen and that it's not going to be shipped until the official release date and there's nothing I can do about it. He also implied that lots of people have been calling in trying to do the same thing and he didn't seem to like it too much. Guess I'll just have to be patient.

Call again, you probably wont get such big jerk.

I got my ipod today, syncing right now, kind of slow wish they kept firewire.
 
Has anyone else been able to convince Apple to expedite shipping?

ya a lot of people have.

It might be to late though.

My dad called and told him that we were under the impression that pre ordering meant that I would get it or at least it would ship when it is available in stores.

They told him they would expedite the shipping and he had no idea what that meant.

I checked later in the day and it was changed to 2 day shipping.
 
Thanks for the info...I'll be waiting patiently and I'll let you all know when I get it, SN, good or bad screen, etc. to add to the stats!
 
Did any of you happen to order applecare as well for the ipod touch? And if so did you receive that before or at the same time when you received your touch?
 
Ugh mine is a 309 order and still hasn't changed one bit... so I guess I am going to have to wait til the 28th.... arrrggg :mad:
 
ditto, mine has been on this status for the past 2 day

just ship it already!
 
Got mine today

Order Date: Sep 7, 2007 at 02:23 PM PDT
It has serial 1B738 with Corinne - hope this is a good one
 
Got mine this morning! Ordered 9/13, and it shipped on Friday. Did NOT pay for faster shipping, but it still got here 1 day earlier than Apple's Estimate and 2 days earlier than fedex's estimate. Oh, it's engraved, too...

Sadly stuck at work for 45 more mins before I can go home and set it up...
 
Ahhhhhhhh! I just checked my order, and my 16GB iPod touch is prepared for shipment...FINALLY! I'm really excited if you can't tell ;)
 
WOOOO My 8GB Touch changed to prepared for shipment today as well! I really hope it ships before friday though! CANT WAIT! Does anyone know how long it is between prepared for shipment and it being shipped?

I think it's about as varying as their shipping - guy above you waited two days and mine been sitting there since Saturday night.
