It's always an exciting time! I wonder who on here is gonna get theirs first!
I ordered my 32GB ATV just before 1pm on the 26th. It changed to PFD at about 10:45 yesterday... AND IT IS STILL PREPARING FOR DISPATCH!
Ok, so my original delivery window was 30 Oct - 3 Nov, and it can still make that. But there won't be anyone to receive the delivery at home next week. So unless the courier will deliver to a neighbour, it will need to be re-directed to work and end up being delivered on Wednesday. I can place a new order now that will beat that!

Ordered mine at 5pm. Not early by any means. Dispatched last night. None of the tracking numbers work yet but the Apple Store says estimated delivery 2nd. Could just be the date at the end of the window but hopefully it comes today.
Yay, picked up last night at 2330 and is on its way to DPD Edinburgh. DPD say estimated delivery 30th, Apple say 2nd. Let the refreshing begin..
Update: text stating delivery win be 2nd, DPD site still says 30th, but gives an option to collect from the depot. If it ain't going out for delivery today then it's a trip to Edinburgh. I should have just gone to the store, haha

Similar scenario here. I think DPD don't update the delivery info until about 9AM for the 'out for delivery' status.
WTF?! :-(
First time Apple has ever inexplicably let me down here.....
Ordered mine literally the minute they became available (about 12.47). Moved from processing to preparing for despatch yesterday (as per the norm).
I fully expected it to go to 'despatched' late last night. It didn't. I didn't worry as this happens...
But this morning I woke up 100% sure it would say despatched but its still on 'preparing for despatch'!!
Not sure how someone ordering at 5pm or later gets it despatched before mine of why mines still preparing....
Oh well, I guess ill try an apple store today.
(oh p.s. just saw previous poster in the same position as me. Im 64gb too. I guess they cocked up the 64s then!)
Waiting for that 'out for delivery' update from DPD.
Does anyone know if they send a text/email to give you a delivery slot or do I need to keep checking status?
Nearly there!

Mine is out for delivery.
I'm two hundred miles away, at the top of a cliff. I'll have to make do with a panoramic view across to France. Hmm, I spy with my little eye something beginning with B....

My 32GB order (placed before 1pm Monday) is also still Preparing for Dispatch, so not just the 64s that are cocked up.
