Just chatted with Apple:
-How may I help you today?
-What can you tell me about the UTD Snow Leopard orders that were pre-ordered earlier this week? Do you know when they will be delivered?
-I'm happy to assist with that.
-If you had already placed your order it will be delivered on the 28th.
-Even though the order status says "Not yet shipped?"
-Yes, you can keep following up on that page for the latest info.

Thanks for pointing that out. I made clarifications in my OP.
Beautiful, thank you! It HAS shipped!
You are very welcome. I was just pointing out an earlier post that you might have missed but I'm glad I could help.
Hmm, well the fedex thing isn't working for me even though I'm in California so they probably haven't picked it up yet.
I though I'd check by BofA account and it shows a pending of $10.82 from Apple so I guess that's progress...dunno when exactly it showed up though.

ordered mine the 24th via the up to date thingie. hopefully i get mine tomorrow, doubt it tho lol.
FYI: You can call Fed Ex, and say "I'm trying to track a package, but don't have the number" and they can look it up by address. - Anything that was picked up today should be in the system by now.
Also, something that might help: Apple seems to use your phone number as the reference number for FedEx, so if you go here and enter your phone number (numbers only) and today's date, you might be able to see your tracking before Apple sends the email.
This didn't work for me. Typed my 10 digit phone number, United States and my 5 digit zip and it wasn't found. I have an UTD order.
Hm, it's possible they use another number for a reference number. You can try calling FedEx as mentioned earlier and track by address. Also, can anyone confirm that tracking by phone number works for UTD orders as well as non-UTD ones?
Here is what an Apple CSR just told me on the phone.
ALL UTD orders are being shipped via the USPS(she called it the Post Office), not FedEx.
This is why we are not seeing any shipping status changes.
I am not sure about other countries other than the US.

If true, the may not be overnighted. Hence why it says "standard shipping" on UTD orders and "Priority" on all others.
This is what I do to get to it:
Go to store.apple.com
Click any product, I usually click snow leopard and on the right in the blue sidebar, if you wait a few moments a chat icon should appear, just click that.
Damn, that's where I'm at too. You ordered UTD? When?
I ordered mine on July 1st. Maybe I was too quick on the draw.
If what she told you is true (and not merely the semantics in language), it makes sense. I've actually received items shipped via USPS and the shipping status has shown "Not Yet Shipped." Another good thing is that USPS runs on Saturday, so if not tomorrow, then maybe the day after.
The online chat is sometimes useless they can't answer some of these shipping questions.
My status says not shipped yet and my bank account hasnt been charged. I'm going to be pissed if this thing doesn't show up here tomorrow and others get theirs.
I live in Massachusetts.
My order still isn't shipped or even prepared. Using the reference tracking from Fedex doesn't bring up anything either.
I'm starting to lose confidence, no big deal though even if I don't get it tomorrow. Sucks that everyone around me would get theirs too!
