Just got a shipping confirmation at 10:10AM EST.
I had heard nothing beyond order confirmation on tuesday.
UPS only shows label created yesterday 15th, they don't have it yet, and estimated delivery is Monday.
My play store account and wallet reflected the change immediately. I had checked less than 30minutes ago and they were still pending shipment.
So maybe there is a new wave of updates.
1x 16GB N4. To Philadelphia, PA. I hadn't bothered calling or emailing customer support.
There is still hope for everyone out there !
