Also, I live in Bermuda. If I purchase the Edge S7 from my local authorized dealer, will I qualify for the Gear VR? Is it for international customers too> Or would I need to send it to my US home address?

The offer period for purchase is over for the deal.

I would hope this wouldn't affect me as I live in Ohio, and unless they are stupid, no package from Indiana to Ohio should have a Memphis connection.

These come out of Indiana so I would think they would be okay. I guess mine is coming to South Dakota so I don't know why it would go through Memphis.

yeap exactly and th fedex tracking updates were on the fritz for 2 days even if you weren't affected

I'm only 180 miles from Indianapolis so don't think it would go through memphis esp with a delivery date of today but who knows...... but I do not think anyone with todays delivery date has received any updates from fedex except "label created" that is why I posted the fedex notice because their tracking system went down as well with the last disruption in memphis 2 weeks ago

It's hard to figure out why some people are getting shipped and some aren't. March 9 or earlier, some have shipped and some not. March 10, some have shipped and some not.

I submitted for an S2 and I just had the address below pop up in my FedEx Delivery Manager .Package weight of 1.5 lbs. I haven't ordered anything recently, but think it is odd that my address would be different then the one everyone else is seeing. Anyone else have this address show up? I am located in Virginia, maybe they are using a different fulfillment company for some of the orders?

Submitted for S2 on 3/16 and just had the below pop up in the FedEx Delivery Manager. I guess these things are shipping from all over... My claim status still says shipping date pending. I have to admit, I'm super excited because I had prepared myself for having to wait several more weeks. I just logged into FedEx for the heck of it today just in the off chance there was something. It actually didn't show up at first because it's shipping under my wife's name (she's the account holder so we get a state employee discount) and I hadn't added her to the alternate names yet. Shipping label was created this morning.

Exactly what I'm talking about. How are you getting yours shipped already when others a week before have heard nothing. Not yelling at you or anything.

No, I agree. This whole deal seems to have no rhyme or reason... I was honestly expecting to find nothing and was incredibly surprised when I did. The only other thing this could be is some random gift from Subaru that get occasionally but googling Harte-Hanks I can't find any Subaru connection but I can with Samsung.

Like most folks, my status still says "shipping date pending" for the S2 watch. I submitted 2 claims, both on 3/10. I don't have fedex delivery manager but signed up for it and now it says I have 2 packages scheduled to be delivered by tomorrow! For each item it says weight is 2.3lbs. Seems a bit heavy, no?

I do not know if they are shipping elsewhere than from indiana but
If it is a shipment for the s2 it should be listed at 2.3 pounds....
