*signs*

Been waiting for this forever, well at least a year. My Delivery Date is September 10th which works out perfectly because I'm home all day on Friday :D

((All this talk of delivery dates make it sound like I'm having a baby xD))
 
Can't wait! My wife got me a 64 gig itouch on 8/17...i'm returning it to best buy tonight.
 
Woot! I ordered as soon as the page refreshed and have my confirmation number. I can't believe how giddy I am about this...sickening!:D
 
If no ones there to sign for the delivery, what happens? I have school all week and my parents aren't home during the day so I'm not sure what to do...
 
1 Day for me, can't wait any longer and Friday is the best possible day of next week for me to get it.

yeah i wonder also...the box can't be that big...they could just put it in the mailbox!

FedEx will leave a note on the door scheduling a redelivery date (they'll give you the date on the note), if there's nobody to pick it up that day then they'll try one more time. After that you'll need to pick it up at the FedEx shipping center (which you can do at any time as long as it's there and not out for delivery).
 
aww man, mine isn't coming until the 13-16 window ..... and i probably woulnd't be able to get it until the week after that since i'll be in dorm T.T

32gb with engraving ^^

They'll leave a note and you'll have to pick it up either at the post office, UPS, FEDEX or whomever they shipped with.
 
hmm can't check my status, keep getting 'Can't connect to application instance' message when I go to order status

It might very well be Indirect Signature via Fedex. This means that if you aren't home to sign, they leave you a little piece of paper you can sign, and then leave on the door. They'll try again the next day, and that piece of signed paper will serve as your signature.

Also though, the last time I got something shipped Fedex from Apple, they emailed me a Fedex sign-off sheet, allowing me to "pre-sign" for the package. Basically you print it out, fill out the very short form, sign it, and leave it on your door. Same deal, it'll serve as your signature and Fedex leaves your box wherever you tell them to (there's checkboxes on the form for Front Door, Back Door, Garage, Other, etc).
 
I prob wait until amazon has them in stock as I don't want to pay sales tax. Guess its finally time to upgrade my 1st gen touch.
 
oh just read my confirmation *im a numpty for not doing it earlier*. Says mine is expected 9th-14th Sept wooo. What model did everyone order? I got 32gig
 
I've got to wait till my school's tech store gets them in stock. the store lets me charge the iPod to my bill and pay it out. can't wait.
 
I went with next day delivery because honestly, my husband is about to tape my mouth shut if I talk about this for much longer! Still nine days is nine days too long!;)

That's fine. My confirmation email for my MBP took around 24hrs. As long as it shows up under your current orders you'll be fine.
