Which Apple TV will you get?

I think there is a good chance people that ordered next day receive it tomorrow.

I agree. Apple just called me to confirm that I was the one who placed the order. She said they're working to get them out ASAP, and I said "hopefully I'll have it tomorrow, then", and she said that I should. I ordered 64gb at 9:30am CT on Monday, paid for pre-noon delivery to Nashville.

EDIT: I'm at PFS on the Apple TV and also the Remote Loop. Hoping for tomorrow!
 
Mine just changed to "Preparing for Shipment". Ordered 32 GB as soon as it went live through the Apple Store app and I live in Belgium.

:D

I've been in preparing for shipment purgatory since yesterday at least. Like I mention before, unless the status changes pretty quick to shipped AND UPS status situation is stable, I'm not expecting it until next week.

I bet these are all at the apple hub in Concord, ON now and will be shipped tonight or tomorrow for Friday delivery

Possible (and hope so). But if the same thing happens like it did w/ my keyboard & trackpad. I won't get it until next Friday as that's when UPS expected delivery is right now (by going w/ my order # on the delivery app). Hope I'm wrong....o_O
 
Yeah, preparing for shipment (64GB, ordered on monday)

Netherlands, std shipping

Oh btw, the Nimbus controller is pretty good. I would rank it better than the FireTV controller and the one for the Nvidia Shield Android TV. Played a bit MC5 and its a bit improvement over the onscreen controls.

The deliveries app is simply showing the last day of your shipping window from Apple.

I am not going to buy this one in the UK before I know what I will be getting. If the UK variant is lacking Apps or content providers I will give it a miss.
 
I ordered mine as soon as they went on sale (Apple TV 64GB) and it has been preparing for shipment since about 10pm central last night (10-27). My buddy said he went through his old emails and all of his shipment notification emails from apple came through between 10pm-2am so i am hoping late tonight to see it move. This late in the cycle though seems like i may miss that beautiful Friday delivery.

We obviously won't have apps from the US TV stations which is currently the case with the existing TV but most, if not all, of the apps should be available here as they are in the iOS App Store.
 
Man, I'm excited to get one, but it seems some people are way more excited than I am. Good on you guys though - tell me about all the features and all the things :-D

I might try to pick one up on Saturday or Sunday, if I happen to be near an Apple Store. Otherwise I can wait until Monday or Tuesday.

I am almost irrationally excited about getting mine. Since I have no cable or satellite anymore, I'll be spending most of my entertainment time on it. The new UI, Siri, and speed will make it so much better to use and I can't wait to see how gaming is on it.

I'm with ya there! Cancelled cable a year ago and not looking back. Although we don't watch much TV, we use OTA and ATV about 50/50. I can't wait to switch my ATV over to the new one, and hopefully get some apps that let me watch recorded OTA shows :)
 
AFAIK your device will only show up if you login with your AppleID for the first time... then only iPad/iPhone/iPod.

My old iPad Air, iMac and AppleTV (Gen 2 and Gen3) never showed up there.

yes i signed in but as you said its only for some idevices not all that's why its not there i guess.
