Some of us had our phones arrive locally early Saturday. Mine has been 5 miles away since before 5:00 AM. FedEx could have done this as well. They have Saturday delivery, and my local facility is also open for Saturday pick up.

I've also had some eBay buys arrive early via FedEx.

Sooooo I have an interesting question here...
When my tracking information was first updated with the location, business days remaining, estimated arrival and such it said it would be arriving Thursday at the end of the day. It said that for a while, along with 4 business days remaining (which would take us to Thursday), and it updated when it departed Kentucky.

I just got back from work and checked the status on UPS like I do every few hours or so, and now it gives me no estimated delivery time, and no business days remaining thing.
Has this happened to anyone? Maybe it is possible that the page will be updated with an earlier day of arrival?

Mine arrived at the last stop before it goes on a truck for delivery this morning. I just checked it and that same info is missing on mine too and it says my package weighs 0.00lbs. Did someone steal it?!!? lol

UPS delivers Saturday if the sender pays extra for it, which Google obviously didn't do. FedEx does Saturday delivery as part of their regular home delivery service. It's like a weekday them.

I don't think Google could of handle it I guess.

hahaha interesting.
Mine doesn't even show a weight or anything. Might just be an issue with the site or something. I was hoping that it would update to a sooner date but I'm not holding my breath.

If Google used FedEx, some of us would have our phones already. Just sayin'.

Gonna order mine today. I don't even care how long it takes to get here. And I'm really excited as this'll be my first Nexus ever. Finally taking the plunge haha. Btw, if you press 'n hold the home button in 4.3/4.4 where the built-in manager shows your running apps, is there a 'Clear All' button to get rid of 'em all at once or do you have to swipe them away 1x1? Also, is there a 'Clear RAM' button or widget as well? My Optimus G has both a 'Clear All' button in built-in task manager and a 'Clear RAM' widget; just wondering since I've nvr owned a Nexus.

I ordered my 32gb white N5 early evening on Halloween (October 31st) it tells me that it won't ship until the 22nd of November. I think that is strange. I don't mind waiting, but it seems like a really late date compared to others. I would have ordered earlier but I've been busy at work and didn't even know it was released. Lol I'll have my PS4 to keep me distracted until it arrives

*Edit *

Got shipment confirmation email this morning! Should be here by Tuesday!

It was up to that date an hour after it went on sale. Most people here ordered within that hour, hence their early ship dates. Nothing strange about it.

Still nothing. Not sure what Google's problem is at this point.

I got the last one at my local Carphone Warehouse for ?295 (?5 cheaper than Google Play & no delivery charge). It's a 16GB Black model which I understand has had it's dispatch date pushed back to November 8th. I'm just glad I was lucky enough to get one without waiting and at a good price!

I can't believe I'm actually looking forward to a Monday.

So, this morning I get up and found a notification waiting in my inbox... I was shocked! When I ordered Google was claiming 3 or more weeks!!

Like many here, I placed an order thursday in the afternoon with the order in pending state and ships before Nov 8 (in the US). This morning I was sent a tracking number and shipment confirmation. Shouldn't draw any conclusions from a sample size of one, but I'm thinking perhaps they bought a lot of time for themselves when they gave us "ships before" deadlines.

I ordered October 31 at 5 pm est. I got an email with tracking number this morning saying it has shipped! 32 GB black, and I got 2 day shipping.

Go Hokies!
