AAAHHHH I missed the delivery guy by 15 stupid minutes! Why couldn't they be late on their deliveries! 
Now I can't pick it up until tomorrow.

They just changed the status on the order to "Future delivery requested"
Someone was home when they changed the status on that, too...
I really hope I don't have to drive out to the FedEx building for this.

Woo hoo the delivery guy came back! Kudos to FedEx going above and beyond.
I hold in my hand 10.5

Delivery exception - future delivery requested. WTF?
EDIT: It was pushed back to a "by 1:00 PM" delivery time.
mine says that, but now says it will be delivered monday. but the package is in my town, weird. im on the phone with fed-ex now figuring out what i can do.
Yep, they changed mine to say at the top that it should deliver by 7PM tonight.
I'd be willing to drive to the closest apple store, if it weren't about an hour away.

Wow, that's exceedingly lame!
sweet, just talked to the fed-ex in my town, said that apple sent out a mass message or something and if fed-ex doesn't deliver it by noon they can put a Future date or whatever on it, but that i will still get it today.
It will be there if you signed the fedex release form. I taped it to my door this morning before i left for work.

I'm in the same boat. At 9:06 this morning there was a "delivery exception" and now the estimated delivery time is 6 this afternoon. I'm not thrilled about that and I hope they try to make a delivery later today (or that it doesn't stay on the truck all day so I can pick it up myself).

FedEx Guy: What is that, an iPod?
Me: No, it's the new Mac OS X Leopard
FedEx Guy: Is that like an iPod?
Me: No, it's the new software for the iMac (I know it's for ALL Macs but I didn't want to get technical)
FedEx Guy: Oh....Well I've gotta deliver about a thousand of those things today!
FedEx--Gotta love 'em!!!

Would of got it but now it says
"Oct 26, 2007 11:06 AM Delivery exception BOTHELL, WA Future delivery requested"
And that it will be delivered by... the magic time of 6:00 PM. I thought this was Apple's doing because that's when the stores will launch it but it sounds like from the forums here that maybe fedex just has too many to deliver? Anyway, hopefully it won't be pushed to Monday otherwise... it will be very temping to get in by other means...
