I work for Ups and can tell you that the Surepost service will not be used for shipping. Our contracts are very strict with Apple and we will not let the post office deliver Apple products. We have big meetings every time a product is released and we handle all of the deliveries with signature required. You can print the Apple release form to sign if your not going to be home for delivery. There is also no delivering to your neighbors house or any other exceptions unless you have a good relationship with your driver. Any questions about the delivery operations at Ups you can send me a message and I'll try to answer as soon as I get a chance.
