What does your tracking show? We're you stuck in Shanghai? Someone else suggested Shanghai folks are on FX28.
I'm regaining hope that if they get to Memphis today, I'll get mine tomorrow...
For those who got free smart covers because of the shipping debaucle, did the order show up on your account in the Apple store?
Here's my tracking info. Ordered 11/8 at 2:34pm. Should arrive in Memphis in about an hour....

For all the people showing that they left Shanghai origin facility at 5:16pm on 11/14 with no further updates...
I wonder if there's any chance that our Minis are already in Memphis or beyond and just missed a scan somewhere.
Hoping that by some miracle we'll see a flurry of updates tonight and these will arrive tomorrow. Wish they'd do free Sat. delivery like they did for the iPhone 5.

Was one of the minis that showed "Left Fedex origin facility" in Shanghai on 11/14 at 5:16pm.
Just updated to be "at local FedEx facility" in Shanghai as of 10:00pm local time on 11/15.
Hoping to catch a ride on Fedex flight 90 that leaves Shanghai at 11:20pm and flies directly to Memphis (arrives 10:36pm CST).
Perhaps there's still a shot the mini gets to Memphis tonight, they fly it to my city in the middle of the night, and then it goes out for delivery tomorrow morning.
"So you're telling me there's a chance"

Mine showed up within the same order as I was completing the call. Tracking shows them delivering tomorrow.
On the same web order as you were inquiring about? I see nothing about it on any of mine. Maybe I'll call back & get TWO free covers ;-).
Hmm, mine is also "at local FedEx facility" in Shanghai now that you mention it, same time. It's 11:35pm in Shanghai now though, so wouldn't we have seen an update if it was on that flight?
Cavman...let us know if that is the right flight number and we can track like we did last night. Is there a second FedEx flight we need to track? Last night it was FDX98 and FDX 90!
Let us know people if you want us to track the planes!
Looks like my 64Gb/ATT/Black like Shangai so much, it decide to stay there -- going back even after it left!

Same deal, but slightly different times. Did ours just take a trip around Shanghai? Did they see the sights? *gasp* Was someone taking them for a joyride OH NO
AMEN to that! Same thing here. NEVER Again will I bother with a pre-order for Apple. They are complete FOOLs with respect to the way they dispatch products.
Mine too. FedEx truck had to wait for the UPS truck to pull out of the receiving bay.
I was staring out of the office window, waiting, much like my dog does when he knows someone's coming home.
Same here, and no real answers from Apple as to why. Ordered on launch day, and people who ordered a week later will have their devices days before me... Not happy. That is on top of the anticipated 30+ day wait I am enduring for my iPhone 5...
Is there at FDEX90 today? Flight Aware is only showing yesterday's and it should have left by now.
Same as mine. Ours must have tried to get to us on their own, but the locals captured them and brought them back
Yes there is and it left 30 mins ago. Unfortunately, do not believe my device is on it as have not received any "in transit" update on the FedEx tracking page.
Interestingly, there is a user named Skyler, who had a similar FedEx tracking sequence but they were 1 day ahead. Theirs is going through Japan and then onto Anchorage and then to Memphis.
Looks like the Shenzhen units (Verizon?) go to Hong Kong and then fly non-stop to Memphis whereas the Shanghai (AT&T?) seem to leave in the middle of the night (1-2am local time) and go to Japan and then onto Anchorage. Adds quite a bit of time versus the non-stop flight from Hong Kong to Memphis.
Finally, just spoke with local apple store in hopes that since some users here have already received their units today that the apple store might have received some units. However, they have none and "haven't been told when the 3G units will arrive".
May check the store tomorrow.
