HomePod preordering

Mine left Harrisburg, PA yesterday evening via overnight.

Mine was in Harrisburg as of Wednesday night (last update). Odd though my phone number never worked as a reference. I still haven't gotten an email from Apple saying it shipped, but I went onto the app and checked the status and saw it was shipped and got the full tracking #.

My experience is probably a little different... I didn't finally decide to place the order until Tuesday night.

Is anyone getting AppleCare for the HomePod?

Seems unnecessary but then again, it’s a new product and the cost is $40.

Good question. Anyone?

Good to know, thanks. Getting on a plane at noon (store opens at 9), so really hoping I can be there at 9 and be on my way soon after.

Are you flying just to pickup the HomePod? If so, that is some serious dedication dude!
 
Mine has shipped... but i live outside of Chicago and we are supposed to get 10 inches of snow starting tonight and into tomorrow. Hoping it still shows up!!!

They didn't make me sign for a $1k iPhone so for me no. Now in some areas I've heard UPS can decide to ask for a signature if there is a concern of an item being stolen from the doorstep.

Well this is a surprise.... Didn't need to sign for an iPhone but according to my shipping notice I will need to sign for the HomePod.
 
pre-ordered mine from very as a friend of mine is an employee there and gets silly discount. Well, the fool I am...

Now says will be delivered by saturday so called them and it looks like they are yet to receive stock from Apple and a customer representative told me that if it doesnt arrive on saturday I can call them and cancel my order...

Lame. First time not ordering directly from Apple. No doubt the very last time as well (despite the discount).
 
Well, after adamantly telling myself I didn't need one (already fully Alexa'd up throughout the house and perfectly happy with them), I've ordered one from John Lewis and will collect tomorrow from my local Waitrose.

Mine says it’s coming by DPD on apples site, and even gives me a tracking number, but when I put that tracking number into the DPD site it says nothing found for your search? It changed to dispatched at about 1pm today

Nothing in the DPD app either. Cause for concern?

Just had an email asking me to book a slot, so all is well! Would actually be more devastated for HomePod to be delayed than my iPhone!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts

Sounds like it’s an easy process pairing it
 
You can order for in-store pickup today in Australia 7am here.

Limit of 2 per customer came up.
 
I ordered a White HomePod like 15 mins ago for delivery on Wednesday. I don’t need one as I have Sonos but I am very curious to how this will sound, and I know if it doesn’t live up to what I expect then I can return.
 
What time are the Australians likely to start getting theirs HomePods, should be soon shouldn't it?
