My iPod shipped today too. I ordered about 4 hours after the announcement. Estimated delivery is the 20th (Fedex ground shipping).
 
Please post color ( are black and white colors? ) and personalization status when letting us know you got shipping info!
 
Darn I am jealous! I ordered at 11:30AM PDT on the 12th and my isn't shipping yet... I ordered a 60G Black one, no engraving and shipping is to Canada.

Same here! I don't show an ETA but I paid for overnight so anyone think I'll have it tomorrow?

This will be my 1st black iPod, I am fairly excited!!

Did you get engraving? I think that delays it.
 
I ordered mine from Amazon about 5 or 6pm on 10-12. It was within 15 mins of them having on their site. They estimate shipping November 14, 2005 - November 28, 2005 I can't imagine it taking that long.

Oh I got a black 60gb.
 
I'm glad to see people are getting their iPods shipped already.

I cancelled an online order because I figured they'd be in stores quicker than Apple could deliver it to me. Instead of getting it in 2 weeks (est. ship 10/24, plus 5 days), I get my iPod when the first store gets them in... MacOutfitters and 2 Apple Stores in the vicinity...

Why did you order it from Amazon instead of directly from Apple? Did you get some kind of a discount or something?
 
Grrrr

I ordered one the day they came out, but then i canceled it because I wanted black instead of white. Damn you lucky people who already have a shipped iPod! Mine is going to ship on or before 10/25.

P.S. Thanks to morons on eBay who bought my 20gb used black and white 4G iPod for $170 with no accessories or cables or headphones (specified in auction). After a student discount, this is turning out to be a $100 upgrade!

I sold my Gen4 20GB iPod for $240 today, could have sold it for $270, but I didn't want to rip the guy off.. its only 3 weeks old btw.

And I'm getting my Gen5 iPod for $286 after tax, student discount, and free shipping.. :)

Same thing done here.
 
i ordered my 30gig black one at 11:46PST and its still processing :( i really don't care but i'm just hoping to get it before sunday because i really don't want to have to wait till monday for it.
 
I ordered a 30gig new iPod through a local Apple retailer, I think it will be faster then the Apple site. They told me last thursday that it would be here between the 21th (earliest) and the 27th (latest).

Oh its coming to Vancouver, Canada.

Who did you buy it from? I called Simply but they said it would probably be 3 weeks before they got any.

And I was able to sell my 1st Gen Mini for $200. So it was a $232.06 upgrade for a bigger, colour screen, the ability to play videos, and a 7 times increase in storage. I think it was well worth it.

But I'm a bit disappointed right now because I just saw my friends black nano, and it's beautiful. I hadn't seen a black iPod before, so I decided to just play it safe and go for white, but if given another chance I would definitely go for black. And no, I'm not canceling my order. It's too close to shipping.

Thats funny cause called macstation and they said that they couldn't garauntee anything, and that it had taken them 2 weeks to get the nano... so I also ordered it online.

Ohh and it went back to Preparing Shipment. They are fully teasing me.

Well I didn't think about the Apple store when my wife asked what I wanted for my b-day. (It was 3 weeks ago) But I said I wanted an ipod. So she got me a gift certificate for Amazon because they have everything.

They do have a small discount though. I did get $6.44 off. If you use thier search engine, www.A9.com, you get 1/2 Pi % (3.1459...) off of every item. It ain't much, but better than a kick in the pants.
