okay, well guys, looks like our little friends are split up. Shipment Exception in this case means that my ipod got to the airport after the aircraft left for Alaska, so, my ipod wil not ship until either Sunday evening, or Early monday morning. I forgot to ask how long it will take, but still, our little guys are split up now. I am sitting rotting in Shanghai, and you guys are already over the ocean. lol, well, actually, unless it doesnt update, then ur the same place, but I am assuming that since it updated at 11:15 and said left origin, that means that last night(the 29th in China) at 11:15, the last plane for the weekend for the mainland left. Thats why it says in transit for you guys. But since my ipod was picked up at 11:47, it missed the last plane out and will be stored at FedEx Shanghai until tommorow night or monday morning. So guys, it was fun while it lasted, but I am so frgging sad this happened. Apple is so retarded, I should call now and say since you shipped a day late it wont get here until after my scheduled time, and get compensated. But I hope you guys enjoy your ipod touches, I know you will, and I will send u guys a message when mine gets shipped in a few days. Tell me more about updates with ur guys' tho. It was fun, but no more......

That sucks! Sorry you wont get yours for a while. I don't think mines on a plane though since theres nothing on my tracker that indicates its on one. Bummer
prolly, cus mine says pick up at 11:47, so, you might have missed the plane. Wht does your order status say?

Mine says it was picked up at 11:42 but everything else except the times are the same as yours so does that mean that mine made the flight?

well, if it says left origin, at 11:15, that most likely means it left Shanghai already, but I am not sure, and I guess FedEx said they're not sure if they r gunna get it to me by wed. thurs. or nt, so now I am DERF gunna call and complain. And guys, I suggest you call 1-800-Go-FEDEX or 1-800-463-3339, and ask about your order status. Dont go automated, as soon as it say, How may I help you? say REP. then it will say something about long wait(which there isnt one) and ten it will say How May I help You? again, and Then say Rep again, and then ask the person about your shipment. Ask them specifically, DID IT LEAVE CHINA, and if they say no, or if it missed the plane, CALL APPLE IMMEDIATELY. Thats what I am doing, i am going to atleast get free shipping. Otherwise, enjoy guys!
okay, well, all the times are different can make a difference. But mine said Order Exception undet Status, and the guy at FedEx said thats what it means, and it didnt happen until about 20 minutes AFTER it said picked up, so like, ater 20 must mean its at the airport. like I said call FedEx, and ask, specifically, DID IT LEAVE CHINA
I am calling Apple now, and I am seriously complaining to them big time, cus this is not right, 30 LESS MINUTES, AND I COULD HAVE HAD IT WED. BUT NOW I MIGHT NOT GET IT UNTIL THURS- FRIDAY
yes im serious, and as log as it doesnt say Shipment Exception, you will get it on time. AND GUESS WHAT??? I AM GETTING A FREE PAIR OF HEADPHONES THAT COST $50 FOR THE IPOD CUS OF UNSURE SHIPMENT TIME AND DELAY!!!!!! I am on the phone with a veryyyyyy polite rep, and she said she can give me credit or give me a pair of headphones, adn she said she just needs to locaate them, and I am hoping that like they have them, but she is taking a minute, so, idk, they might not actually have them, but she felt so bad for me, andfor the peeps that dies in typhoon whipa, so like she said its no problem, god, for all of its quirks, apple reps are really nice to you, well, the women are....... Hope you guys enjoy your ipods! I get mine with a free headphhone pair and my invisibleSHIELD, so, I am not trying to brag, but im happy.
I have a couple of questions, I hope you guys don't think they are stupid.
First, what is "Int'l shipment release" mean? I got that at 12:44pm.
My next may be an obvious one. Do they ship on sundays? I would assume the answer is no, but I just wanted to ask to be certain.
Thanks!

I called FedEx and he said it will ship next business day because they have not received the product yet. And I wont get it before Thursday.
Has anyones status change yet to show that it's on the plane? In Alaska!?(I know it can't be yet...but I can dream!)Anything at all? I'm going nuts just waiting even more so now. I've literally taken a 1 hour break from my computer all day, and other than that have been refreshing the MacRumors and Apple.com Touch forums and watching my FedEx page religiously. I know, I should get out and all...but it's all too much to bear haha

Honestly, I dont think it will ship until the 8th. Today was the last possible day to be shipped before a holiday week in China. And on their site it indicates that no international shipments will be made until the 8th.
So what does that mean for me? the last thing it says is
11:42 PM
Left origin
KUNSHAN CN
Could you possibly post a link to that? I'd just like to look into that, and then maybe go to Cali and b****slap Jobs.
Unless it says that it has left Shangai on its way for anchorage than its stuck in China for a week.
Hehehe! My iPod Touch, as of an hour ago, was an hour and a half away from my dorm!! Monday is going to be so glorious.
Monday is going to be so glorious.Its not jobs' fault but whoever created a week long holiday in China.

You'd think that Apple could spare an Intern to go look into this week-long holiday before assuring us of a Sept. 28th shipment deadline. I'm not really that upset, I just can't believe the poor business practices shown by Apple over this entire Touch release. Hopefully Apple paid FedEx(or set something up)so we can all get these orders that their site tells us are actually shipped.
