Curious if anyone remembers, during the iPhone 6 launch for those of you who received their phones on the 19th, when did Apple change you from processing to preparing for shipment? Anyone remember because I don't.

The 17th or 18th as the item was already here in the U.S.
 
I just swung by the Apple store 2 blocks from my office and stare at the watches. Just in case you were wondering, that does not help in calming down ones excitement...
 
Lol! I hope they mods are prepared when these things start shipping out...because every damn one is going to post, "OMG, my watched shipped!" :( Please don't do that.

The giddy excitement will be fun to witness though. I hope I'm one of the overly stupidly excited people come Friday. Or sooner if that bloody status changes from processing.
 
What's amazing are those who remain convinced their watch will arrive on the first day of the quoted delivery dates. Apple is being quite fair and preparing buyers for a wait, it seems while anything is possible, counting on day one may be misleading.

While I'm not expecting my 4/24-5/8 order to arrive on Friday, I don't think Apple is being fair with this date range. At this point they have an excellent idea how many orders will be ready to deliver on Friday. So why not update expected delivery dates?

If all goes according to how many people have posted about their cables, you should enjoy hours of fun. ;)
 
Well crap, the $579 authorisation dropped off my card overnight. Not the change I was hoping for.
 
Meanwhile in Cupertino, CA....

I don't disagree. However now that Apple's such a behemoth and ultra successful they are able to operate relatively consequence free. They know the customer has no choice except to wait. They're also in a very strong position with so many that will make excuses for Apple. Nearly untouchable they are highly skilled at spin control. It's pretty impressive.
