Nearly had a heart attack!

Got an email from Apple saying "Your Apple Watch is expected to dispatch within the next 3-4 weeks!"

Bit strange, does everyone get this email?

Ahhh! I haven't got this! Is this a good or a bad sign?! Ordered SG Sport at 08:05 with a delivery estimate of 12-26 May!
 
Basically just informing me of updated date estimation. I ordered 42 SG at 16:14, originally slated for June dispatch, updated earlier to 27th May - 9th June
 
I have said it before, but I am already getting bored with the watch before I ever got one. The CANCEL button is getting more and more tempting. I won't though, I will open the box, try it on, use it for a few days and then return it if I am not completely satisfied. That at least will speed up the process of giving customers with faulty watches a quick refurbished one. If I really like it, I will keep it of course, but by the time it gets here the next generation is just around the corner.

I clicked on it, it kept staring at me and i got a message saying I can't cancel #
 
Right. THATS IT!!!!

No ****ing charge.

No ****ing status change.

No ****ing watch.

I've just been into the Apple Store and really kicked off at the imbeciles in there. No one was taking me seriously so I started scratching all the ****ing MacBook screens with my ****ing Swiss Army knife.

The ****ers soon took notice and called security.

Luckily I'm a karate blue belt and kicked the guys arse. He will be spending the night in hospital.

Tried to snatch a space grey from someone doing a try on, but was rugby tackled by the other guard.

Eventually had to run off after I knocked the leg from out of under the table and all of the Ipads off the tables onto the floor.

Must've been 8 or 9 iPads completely mullered.

After all that still no ****ing apple watch.

WORST LAUNCH EVER!!!!

Took a pic just before running off. That'll teach the bastards!!

Did you get to try your Swiss Army knife on the watches and did they scratch #
 
Not me! I hope that's a good sign as I had 24/4-8/5 originally.

Me 2 what time they start sending out these email I got the first one although they can gladly send one saying you will have your watch this week I doubt it though
 
Just out of interest, does anyone know if Apple Stores have service parts yet in case ours show up with a fault/need replacing?
 
Wish i had a delivery estimate instead of just "june" plus i need to stick the money into my account, plus they have decided to shut the bank in my village!! (12th june) typical that is...

Ah, same here. I am kind of wondering whether I really need it. Got totally swayed by the whole build-up ahead of the preorders. I'm just sick of this unknown... As you say, will give it a go (once the UK actually gets some leftover stock) and see if it's really worth £500 or not...

Laughed so hard at this that I almost didn't notice that my order is… still processing. GRRAARRRRR. I think next time Tim Cook does one of those 'donate a pile of money to charity X and get lunch with me' things we should start a whip round so Mintimperial can attend as our diplomatic envoy.
