Apple Watch Series 3 Pre-Order Thread

Dopestar said:
My order seems to be stuck there as well. It appears that it is preparing to be moved for shipment.
[doublepost=1506023023][/doublepost]Is anyone having second thoughts to return the watch based on all the negative reviews it has received??

No way. From what I can recall theres been negative reviews prior to every Apple Watch release. When I’ve actually recieved mine it’s perfect for what I need it for, and I have a feeling Apple will be ironing this out ASAP. Super excited for tomorrow!!!!

Mine is stuck there too - I live in the Northeast.

As for the reviews, the reviews I have read are all pretty positive, except for the battery when on cellular. That's an issue, but I just bought this from Amazon and hope it will cure that issue for me if necessary:

Regarding the battery, is this something that can be improved via software updates or will we need to wait until Series 4?

For us Southern Californians, the watches probably won't leave Louisville until sometime this evening (or even later in the night). It'll reach Ontario, CA airport in the wee hours of Friday morning and then make its way to a local distribution center. From there it finds a brown delivery truck around 6 - 8 AM or so (on launch day, tomorrow).

How do you track flights? Specifically looking for FedEx flights from Memphis going to the upper Midwest. Just thought it would be fun to track the flight carrying my new watch!

my memory to DFW area is it really moves fast once it starts. something like: midnight-load plane in Louisville 3 am unload at DFW airport, truck to Mesquite; 5:30 am truck to Fort Worth, 6:20 am truck to Granbury, 7:30 am out for delivery END OF DAY!

Go to www.flightaware.com and click on the "FORGOT THE FLIGHT NUMBER?" link at the top. Fill in some basic info and get the results. On the results page, click on "Airline" over on the left side and choose FedEx. You'll then see what FedEx flights are where.
