well, tnt is already quite slow in the first place. they take at about 3 days for destinations within europe - so don't expect the ipod before tuesday. but the real bad thing about tnt (don't know if its only the austrian part of it) is that they "lost" 3 out of my 5 shipments for which apple used TNT and not UPS. my magic mouse they even lost twice!!! once in the netherlands and once in the distribution centre here vienna....
Seeing that my iPod still hasn't been shipped, even though I've ordered on the 1st of September, kinda annoyed me. I just called a local Apple Premium Reseller and they told me they have one iPod Touch 4G left, they sold the whole charge they have gotten from Apple in less than 20 minutes. They offered me to put that one aside for an hour, that's why I just called my dad who's gonna pick it up for me. I've cancelled my 'prepurchase'.
Wow.... now I'm really pissed at Apple. I got an email saying:

It doesn't seem like UPS is working smoothly either. They have to deliver my iPod from Holland to Holland and it's going to take them exactly 4 days, they say. (That includes Sunday, but still.)
Oh noes! You have to wait another 3-5 days to get your ipod! Imagine all the music and games you'll miss out on!?!?! Tell your local news stations, hire a lawyer, and let your congressman know what happened to you! This is truly the greatest injustice in the history of mankind!
I ordered mine two days ago on the cheapest possible shipment plan as a 64gb with engraving and with an international destination, but it says it's been shipped already...
After reading all this, I may check the status again to make sure I didn't read it wrong, because it seems like either I read it wrong, or I am VERY lucky...
