Hey I just noticed apple sent me an email at 1:47am EDT that says I'm getting the delivery on time and to use the presign form if I'm not going to be available to receive it. Oh and it used the magical word again too.

 

[Edlex]

So new shipping update says that it departed Memphis at 5:06am EDT. They are really cutting it close huh?

In Sort Facility, Atlanta.

Mine started from Middleton, PA which is 51 miles from me, to Newark, NJ which is 272 mi from me, to Indianapolis, IN which is 477 miles from me the opposite direction, which is where it sets as of 4:25AM eastern. I'm sure there is some kind of logic to that but I fail to see it

Ok now in sort facility Pittsburgh 100 miles away as of 6:44AM eastern ...

Illogical as it seems, I wouldn't want to try and tell FedEx that they don't know how to move packages.

[Edlex]

It's at sort facility in Miami!

 

[figmo10]

Mine was at Londonderry, NH at 6:35 am....about an hour and a half away. FedEx usually delivers overnight packages in this neighborhood around 11:00 am.

I don't even remember that one. Did it have a screen?

Nope. No screen. We had one. Wow, we've come a long way from that to the iPad in a relatively short time. Makes me wonder what the next thirty or forty years is going to bring.

Mine is 30 minutes from my house at sort facility!

 

[Mainsax]

Getting close! Departed the Indianapolis Fedex Hub at 4:45 am and arrived at Local Indianapolis distribution center at 6:15. Woot!

Here's a great website - the obsolete technology website.

Old Computers - rare, vintage, and obsolete computers

I also had a Timex Sinclair

Mine has been in the air for the past 2 hours - making the trek from Memphis to Albuquerque. I expect it to land any minute. Then it's 1 1/2 hours by hi-way.

I am so afraid the level of withdrawal once it gets hear will be intolerable.

 

[sickpup]

Mine are at sort facility just about 10 miles from my house. The charges for both 3G's also hit my CC.
