Ordered a 32gb gold on Sept 20, 4am... shipped Oct 14, due Oct 21...
Wow can't believe the difference an hour made.
Seriously
I set an alarm for myself to wake up 10 minutes before 3:00am so I could order it right away and the alarm never went off. I woke up at 4am in a panic! I was so angry I missed the first wave that I couldn't go back to sleep after
Sucks - I had the same problem with alarm etc and ordered around 4am, but I got mine almost 3 weeks ago. Its maybe not hours that make a difference - but minutes. Mine's a 32 Silver btw.
