I guess MacRumors reported that apple would be shipping Apple Watches via UPS & FedEx, and we've seen VERY little FedEx activity.
Got a tip for us?

Created my account and set up auto alerts.
Also searched by reference for the 80th time with no luck... Come on FedEx, don't fail us!
Ultimately, this is plausible. I'm often surprised at how quick overnight shipping from fedex gets to me in the DC area, and even leaving 2-3 hours from now wouldn't be unprecedented.
Keep in mind that often times, overnight shipments go out on later truck deliveries.

There won't be. A letdown doesn't make sense.
This theory makes sense.
If this doesn't happen, I really have lost a lot of faith in Apple.
All Apple Watch preorders will be delivered tomorrow. In order not to disappoint their customers Apple has contracted Santa to make a run tonight.
Rudolph is currently in rehab and the elves are being called back in for mandatory overtime. This could get dicey.
Christmas in April!

No need to go down. If it happens, great. If not, we wouldn't have gotten them today anyway, but at least you gave us hope.
Will keep hope alive until 2:36 am, when the first on tons of Fedex flights leave Memphis, but I will probably fall asleep.
I appreciate all of you keeping your heads up.
I'd be lying if I said my day wasn't peppered with little fits of rage here and there.
But you know what, you guys have made me believe again...
Tomorrow... Could still happen.

Just got a deposit into my checking/debit card account. My balance went up. This is the first time I've ever been bummed to see more money in my account than I expected.
It won't appear until FedEx scans the package- whenever that is. It's different then how UPS works.
The only reason I feel like 38mm SG are gonna be shipped in U.S. Is Cus NO ONE has gotten anything. How could the most powerful company in the world mess up that hard. Seriously. How. And this very well could be the most popular config so tell me how Apple could mess it up. I'm at least anticipating some people to get there 38mm in America tomorrow.
Well, I keep believing they'll scan my package before I get an e-mail.

Yeah, same with the 42mm. Very few actually shipped so far.
60% are said to be space gray, but we can't find traces anywhere?
Either they screwed up so hard...
or this theory is plausible.
Well then let's go ahead and pretend Fedex will be the exclusive carrier of the 38mm SG.
All the UPS drivers seem to be saying that, but all the FedEx drivers seem to be saying they'll be delivering Apple Watches today. Hm.
