Apple hasn't taken any money from me yet!!
my status is still the same as yesterday...
My Macbook (plus iPod and printer) has gone to "Prepared for Shipment" today. 
Can anyone tell me how long it's taken your order to go from this stage to actually being shipped? Like the rest of you, I'm trying to work out when it might arrive!

Mine took a day; prepared for shipment on Tuesday, shipped on Wednesday.
I don't know if they'll ship over the weekend though, mate; you might have to wait until Monday before it boards the plane/boat/Richard Branson-piloted hot air balloon.

Well as I say I have my shipment coming direct with only UPS and apparently no meeting of products because my order is "Fast Shipping", and UPS themselves are saying they will be here on Monday, even though my order was only sent yesterday (24th). I suspect that whilst the local end of UPS doesn't deliver at weekends, then boats/planes all operate regardless of the day.
PresentACat mine must be on the same shipment I have this on the UPS page :

Your shipment is moving within the UPS network and should be delivered on the Scheduled Delivery Date. A shipment can remain in this status until it is delivered. Other than time-definite air deliveries, shipments are generally delivered anytime between the hours of 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. to residences, and by close of business for commercial addresses. UPS cannot schedule a specific delivery time within that window.

Your page looks exactly like mine, pretty much exactly the same details. I think we can trust UPS dates, not Apple, so I am fully expecting it to arrive on Monday!

Thanks for the replies. It sounds like I have quite a while to wait yet! Ah well, back to real life for a while longer.....
Right now this is odd.
My tracking info now looks like this....

"Your package has experienced an exception. " is at the top.
It says it may cause a delay to the delivery date, anyone else had this? Does it clear?

Well it looks like the tracking bit isn't going to get updated before Monday.
It seems there are at least 4 of us on the thread waiting for delivery of Macbooks PLUS printer/ipod who can't track their deliveries.
All we can do I suppose is keep our fingers crossed, BUT I expect if they do turn up on Monday I will be out!
Is it definitely UPS delivering. If it is, I have to drive to Abingdon from Maidenhead to collect!

If it's of any comfort ours are together, the UPS on my tracker is saying the same , looks like we are in the same boat (as the going says!)

Yeh, to me it sounds like something pretty standard, just they give some alarming sounding messages. I think the Netherlands are 1 hour ahead of us, so the update wasn't that long ago so its not been sitting there all day.
Just checked my order status for the 2.0 macbook, iPod nano and printer on the apple store and it has changed to shipped today October 25th
I ordered mine the same day as you LCFC, mine still hasn't shipped - I'll keep checking tonight though. Out of interest, what's the estimated delivery date now?
My delivery date just moved from the 27th to the 28th. Here's what the UPS tracking is saying...
