maybe you're on the return phase of their loop?
It's 6am here in the UK, I'm going to be waiting by the front door all day I can tell
We're unlucky man, it won't be at our doors till september the 2nd, aparrently..
On apple.com, go to orders, then track delivery status. Says sept the 2nd for me.

Mine was dispatched 26th, so hopefully, here today.
ah, mine was on the 27th... But that still should mean you get yours at sept 30th earliest no?
Have you tracked it to see the delivery date?

Well, as royal mail, is in theory, next day, it should be here today. I guess apple said 2nd to cover themselves. Most things that get sent royal mail arrive before the estimated date as companies quote 3-5 days, but in reality it's 1-3 days.
Just got mine at KRCS, no pre order, just walked in and got a copy Unfortunately have to work till 9 tonight so have to wait before I can have a play

I think mine's the same as yours, but I"m going by the dispatch date, rather than an estimated delivery.
Picked up my family pack today - it's now on my 13" MacBook Pro! Nice!
Biggest change I've noticed is no more HD icon on the desktop - seems like an odd thing to change!? Also, Expose is different, but still awesome. I was worried they'd make it less useful with the changes, but it's still very workable.
Exchange support is a god-send. Have connected to my corporate Exchange 2007 server, works perfectly. In fact, it was easier to set up than Outlook 2007 which just shows how end-user oriented Apple are.
Not much difference to Leopard otherwise.
Off to install more software.

Please could people posting on here that they have received their copies of SL include what country/area they are in, what their estimated delivery date was, and if they paid for express delivery or just went for the free delivery option?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Most of the people here are Aussies by my count. Funny there are no New Zealander's about here...
FWIW: somewhere between 11am and 4pm, you see I didn't hear the doorbell, or the phone. Thank god for the sticker that says: As a one-off and only for deliveries to private addresses if the consignee is not home, Apple authorises this to be left in a secure location and without POD signature.
Sydney, Australiand.
Yeah I was talking bout iStat Pro.
as you can see I live in RAdelaide South Aust, Ordered Tues 25/08/09, free delivery, (standard option) arrived 1.35pm Fri 28th local time.
At aussie.damo, no more HD icon, as in Macintosh HD? weird mine is still there.
I've only played around for 5 mins, been busy but I like the new Quicktime, however I usually watch full screen so don't notice much difference. Like the new expose, like the pdf selection.

I simply walked into my Apple reseller and bought it over the counter. Forget pre-ordering this time!
I still have to wait another 8 1/2 hours before the store opens up and I get it
Technically wrong; you will die LONG before "forever", without sounding morbid. Hehe.

Ah yes... KRCS... the guys who think they're running an Aston Martin showroom, looking down their noses at you. Leicester shop got closed down, due to a PROPER Apple store being opened there; all I can say is this - GOOD, because their discounts were pathetic.
Northern Virginia, USA.
Ordered by Apple.com.
FedEX just brought my copy at 7 AM. I'm pretty surprised, I really thought I wouldn't see it until I got home from work tonight!
