Right, but are you getting your pre-order on the 24th? It makes no sense for Apple to offer developers who will get their orders on time watches that arrive later.

This isn't a gift, it's a marketing expense. They could give you or me a $10,000 watch, and it would barely be noticed by anyone outside our circles. Give one to Beyoncé, and it makes news stories on multiple websites within and well outside of the tech press. As ads go, it's actually a pretty cheap one.
What if:
Apple says "limited supply" but in fact their is no limit at all..... they've been all giving to developers and Apple told other regular customers "Supply is limited" so pushed back till June,
"A guaranteed April 28 delivery means developers who make a purchase will receive the Apple Watch Sport one week from today" and I order one and won't receive it till June ??. or later
I don't buy it at all..
Its also a coincidence, that the 42mm is ok, yet the 38mm is not, even though its the same Sports watch.
Why would one they have plenty of the 42mm.. but not the 38 ?

This hints that the 42mm with the blue band was the least popular option. I do recall seeing that one available for 4/24-5/8 at 6am the morning of the preorders.
I went for a SG Sport with a quoted delivery of 4/24-5/8 in New England and have no updates. I feel so alone.

I used (and won WWDC) from my work account, and got the watch offer on my personal. Who knows?!
My preorder is set to arrive in June :/. Maybe it will get pushed up tho? /crosses fingers
Email said they'd update those who registered on the 23rd. That gives them an hour local time for me or 9 hours by their time. Hopefully by the time I wake up I'll have some news. Wonder if they'll inform those who aren't successful.
Nothing here.
I got the email to my individual dev account. I'm admin on 2 others and a developer on a fourth. The 2 I'm admin on got no emails (to any member) but the agent of the one I'm a dev on did.
Curiously though, I'd ordered a sport with white band on the 17th with a shipping date of June. It was dispatched today.

Nothing for me either. Came to this thread hoping to see something. My launch window SS isn't shipping yet either. I'm striking out all over.
Got the same email here. I wonder if they haven't sold as many watches as they had hoped as this seems like a last minute thing. Coupled with people whos order was supposed to be delayed till june shipping it makes you wonder.
