Arrived, unboxed, installed
It has arrived, it is unboxed, and has replace my older 720p version. My Samsung HDTV sees it sending 1080x1920@60Hz. Works fine. Shows purchased movies (like Capt. America) purchased on an iPad 2 (720,natch) at 1080 when viewed from the "purcased movies" tab.

Got mine today as FedEx said via tracking. Have only had the first-generation one before. I cannot tell you how much I love how much faster this one is and, um, mirroring! Now I need one for my bedroom TV!
They didn't even knock on the door! Been waiting all day for it and never heard anything! I hate FedEx! If it was UPS they would've just left it at the door!
Apple requested the signature, so even UPS would have required it.
Been playing with mine all day.
iPhone mirroring has been a bit hit or miss. It was terrible over G, slightly less than terrible over N and decent over Ethernet, but it still drops the connection a lot. Since Airplay was the main reason for my getting this thing, I'm pretty disappointed.
Does anyone know anything about a jailbreak? This should be able to stream higher quality files than the last one.

No they just leave it at the door, signature or not. They left 2 iPhone 4's a the door that required a signature. So I don't think a $99 Apple TV would've been a problem.
