that is the same with me. i am right outside philadelphia, about an hour away from middletown. mine says in transit also. do you think it could come today? when is delivery stopped for the night? the delivery time says 4/29 by 4:30. do you think that is just a generic message that they are giving a lot of us?

Same here. Almost 4:00PM here and no Fedex yet. Either they are hold it until tomorrow or they got 30 minutes to get it here if they are going to deliver it today.

if it is in "transit on the delivery truck" it means you will get the package today
if it is "in transit" between airports you will get it tommorrow

I think it is pretty much done for the day. The other time I got something from Fed Ex it was at my house by 1. On the other hand my package last time was flown form Cali to Trenton, which is closer to me and could have been one of the first shipments. I hope that could eb the case and I am one of the last shipments, but in my opinion mine is being taken to Trenton again probably and going to be here tomorrow early.
I HOPE that the 4:30 is a general message, and that it might be here later on, but it doesnt seem reasonable at this point.
But since you are in Pennsylvania, I wouldn't be surprised if yours arrived tonight

FedEx shipping is stupid. My shipping destination is in the S.F. Bay Area. Take a look at where my package is going. Let's see, to go to Northern California from southern California they have to ship the pkg thru Tennesse? Geesh! FedEx doesn't get the optimum shipping route award for this one. Glad I'm not paying by the mileage.

I am glad that people here have their delivery dates/times. Mine is still "preparing for shipment."

I have, of course, called Apple - and the assured me that it would ship in time for me to receive it tomorrow. I remember when Panther came out, however. This was delayed even in the face of assurances that "everything will be there on time."

I really wonder why I put myself through this every time. I should have just arranged to go to the local Apple Store (Tysons Corner, VA) and enjoy the launch. But no! I have to order on the Apple Store once the launch date is announced!

FYI,

I ordered a BTO powerbook on monday. I called today to ask if it would come with 10.3 or 10.4 (just to be safe before i ordered the update) and was told that the powerbooks would not be BTOed with 10.3...

Of course until i get the machine i can not be 100% sure... But i got the jump on a 10.4 upgrade so it won't be too long after.

should say WOULD BE BUILT WITH 10.3

did you order the upgrade version or the full version? i ordered the $9.95 upgrade version and it still has not shipped out yet. i called apple and they said that most people should get their copies by tomorrow (even if their order status is still processing). dunno, but hope she was right.

Unfortunately, that conflicts with another post (near the end of the previous page by someone else who said apple customer care said that all up to date orders will ship ON the 29th, so probably won't get them until Tuesday or so...

I hope you are right though. Mine still says "Processing Order" (Not even Preparing for shipment").

Same here, but I'm optimistic. I ordered a camera last week from buy.com and the page was never updated past 'sent to warehouse'. It arrived today and the page still hasn't been updated. I'm fairly confident it will arrive.

Wow. It shipped yesterday, with two-day, and arrived today. I never thought I'd ever get a package early, let alone Tiger.

Yeah, it's just some new software - not really life threatening, but I'd like the company to live up to their word. They may THINK different, but it seems they're acting just the same.
Well put! I ordered my copy on the 12th at 5:48 am and with just a little more than an hour left on April 28. . . my order status remains: Preparing Shipment. Obviously I am hoping that Apple is just slow on updating their order status. . . if not. . . that's lame, big time!

Well, I went out thinking it would take my mind off it. Came back. No difference in status. I suppose I will tear a "strip off" someone on Apple's 800 number when it *doesn't* arrive tomorrow.

Is it so difficult for them to ship things on time?

Both of my orders said preparing shipment for days. Last night I received my email on my Family Pack that showed it had actually been shipped out at 1:30PM and I didn't receive the email and status change until 11:00PM.

My server version email just came at 9:00PM tonight, but said it had been sent out yesterday at 2:00PM.

I feel there is hope for everyone according to these events!

mine shipped on wednesday....i've been lopoking at the fedex site and the shipment has not changed since very early this morning - "5:41 AM Arrived at FedEx location OAKLAND, CA" - nothing since that...I assume it has gone somewhere over the last 16 hours and that fedex just has not updated...but it still has to go through canada customs too....i am not so confident that i will get mine tomorrow (even though they have always come through before)
