tell me about it! although i did place my order after you i can empathize with how it's a little frustrating to see orders placed a week or more after you ship off. i'm giving apple 48 hours to prepare my order or i'm canceling, i'm without a computer right now so i literally need a computer.
Got a tip for us?

I was only checking once a day, but once I saw the preparing to ship I was checking more frequently. It was within 4 hours of noticing it was preparing to ship, that it actually shipped. Won't be long now
.Ordered 12/24, woke up with a hangover as well as a "preparing for shipment." Doubt they're shipping on Sundays but could be wrong.

When checking my tracker information that at the time showed Jan 15th, I've notice they added a tracker number from UPS, since then I stop breathing
I'm pretty sure the stuff will arrive Monday TOMORROWWWWWWW.
Dip
In the same boat
I guess it's good to know I'm not the only order on 12/22 that is not moving! I empathize with everyone on here who is frustrated seeing later orders ship w/ the exact same config that they ordered.
FWIW I ordered on 12/22/12 @ 5:56 pm EST with Barclaycard
With the following configuration:
3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz
8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB
3TB Fusion Drive
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2GB GDDR5
Magic Trackpad
Apple Wireless Keyboard (English)
(plan to upgrade the RAM myself...if the machine ever shows up!)

I ended up getting two cabinets and a glass top for use as a desk. Going to put bookshelves over that for storage. No way am I putting anything heavy up there though. Don't want shelves falling out of the wall onto my computer.
I ordered my 27" with the following configuration on Dec 8th.

Our New iMac is here!
As some of you may know I canceled my order and picked up locally. Store Manager and the business team at Willowbrook, NJ are awesome!
There has been some discussion as well about ram. I went with crucial and I'm posting up some photos to end the confusion. I pulled the 8gb, and installed the 32gb before even starting the machine for the first time. No issues. Newegg has this stuff for 86.99. Although I picked it up locally and they price matched.
Build is
3.4 i7
32GB ram
1TB Fusion
680 Graphics

I Know
Some flew via Anchorage to Memphis and cleared customs in Alaska. Others flew directly on a more recent flight direct to Memphis from Shanghai and are waiting to clear customs.
As I sit here Monday morning drinking a beer and eating potato chips (in fairness I have just finished a 12 hour night shift), I have received great news as I checked my order status for the millionth time, I have finally seen a change to "preparing for shipment"
I don't know how long it will take to ship from this point and if I don't die from living an unhealthy lifestyle, I hoped to soon see shipped. By the way ordered on the 12/12/12.
I'll have to update the spreedsheet when the servers stop being busy.

Hmmm, my 1-04 date is getting closer
Not to rain on your parade.. There are still orders before this one in December that have not shipped. It is all over the place when it comes to the order they are shipping these.
I'm a December 21st order. Just called Apple to see how things are coming along on their end and to check the order status. I was totally cool with them and the nice gentlemen bumped me to 2-3 days.
As an aside, prior to my order I called Barclays asking for a same as cash 18 months on the order (having used the offer on another mac in 2010) and they were happy to oblige. For you that have not placed an order yet and hold that card there may be some value in that for you.
