Yeah I was surprised too... I got someone English, female and friendly
Telephone service is getting to be a major considering factor when choosing a product or service for me nowadays. Had enough of all these companies that leave you in a queue for an hours on an 0870 number (after going through a 5-layer menu system) then put you onto some poor clueless guy in India who doesn't even know what a Consignment is let alone how to help you, then makes you queue for a different department, then they say it's his department and you have to queue for that one again etc etc etc *explodes*
I shall definitely use TNT if any courier service is needed.
Mine's also been sat in Holland, since 14:53. I'll be suitably impressed if it arrives tomorrow!
on saturday i went to see if argos had any touch pods, they said if ordered today (saturday) they will deliver it on tuesday. this was at the kensington high st. branch, london.
Why has anyone ordered online through anyone other than Apple?

They're on the move again, looks like delivery tomorrow is on the cards.

Mine was a 14:50 Arnhem Hub and just changed in the last 10 mins (22:53 Liege Euro Hub), so, I guess they are scanning them on the plane one by one.
Hmm, Belgium, wonder if my touch could pick me up some chocolate in the duty free
.
She did, although I think that pretty strange because she (or her colleague) told others it will be there tomorrow! (See older posts)
Colour me Belgian too!

tnt jobs worth
Mine came about 13:00 today, My boss answered the door to the tnt bloke (I was at lunch) The bloke would not leave the parcel unless I signed for it, Which I couldn't. He said apple will only accept the signature of the person who paid for it, so my boss wrote and signed MY NAME on the form and the guy gave him the Touch!
I didn't have this problem when my £2000 powerbook was delivered by tnt to my workplace.
Anyway, just so you know...

thats what im hoping too.
its just going to annoy me tomorrow if i know that if it had arrived that bit earlier at Pudong Airport i could be arriving home from college to find it delivered.
To be honest, I think you guys that are only just arriving at Arnhem due to missing the first plane may well be too late for the shipment to the airport, and thus miss the other plane (which sucks). Though, hopefully not. And worst comes to worst, it's Wednesday at the latest, and those of us who already have ours on the plane won't be TOO smug about getting them. Promise.
Well thats just impossible for me, since I live in University Residences and therefore I do not even have a bell on my room door
Reception said it should be OK. But what if not?
Yes! I'm on the plane. Last on, first off
Then first on the big lorry that takes them to be sorted, and last off that.
