I think it my have to do with what distribution center your order will be processed from. I'm in California and on the Amazon Kindle Forum those in Calif.'s orders still say "not yet shipped" and have an estimated delivery date of 11/16.

Mine is still saying not shipped, though it occasionally updates to shipping soon, but always goes back to still not shipped. I called CS to see what was going on and got a really stupid person who kept repeating the obvious of when it is due to be delivered. He barely spoke English and was absolutely no help at all! He said he couldn't find any problems but i could tell he was clueless as he kept asking the same questions over and over and I could tell he was trying to look for documentation to tell him how to respond. My CC has not been charged either. If it doesn't ship by noon tomorrow, or at least show my CC was charged by then, I will probably cancel and just wait and get one locally as it seems like they might have screwed up my order some how.

I'm a Silver Premier customer at Best Buy, so returning without questions is not a problem. It is actually a lot easier than shipping an item back to Amazon. I paid a lot extra for one day shipping, so if it looks like others are getting theirs shipped tomorrow and I don't, then that would be a waste of one day shipping fees.
The idiot CS rep just sent me an email saying that Amazon is indeed still planning to deliver KFires by Nov 16. I kept telling the dufus that was NOT my question/complaint. I've had a few orders screwed up in the past as far as shipping goes and I was trying to get him to verify everything was okay, but "Peggy" could not seem to wrap his wee little mind around that concept. |

One and Two Day shipping MAY be the same.

I just purchased something else today with the 2 day option and it IMMEDIEATELY said "Shipping Soon" just like my Kindle Fire and Marware now say. The product I purchased today has an estimated delivery date of Nov 16 while the Kindle Fire and Cover still say Nov 17. My opinion is that everyone with one and two day delivery options will get the Kindle Fire ON NOV 15. That is the official release day. As I post this it is still Sunday, Nov 13. |

Ah, my cover charged and is shipping soon. So, items ordered, charged, and shipping soon:
Kfire Ktouch Kfire cover. Tuesday (maybe tomorrow?) will be a GREAT day! Now, if only they'd sort out the Ktouch covers....sigh |

I just got an email that a KF only book I'd pre-ordered has been "delayed" from Nov. 21st to Nov. 14th. (Ever get the feeling you're in an episode of Dr. Who?) Why would I be getting a KF-only book before I receive the device? I can't imagine.

Great news !
That clue just well could mean that tomorrow is FIRE DAY. I'll know after UPS gets to my house at the usual time of 6:00 PM in the evening tomorrow.

I wouldn't worry about what the website says. Remember Amazon is on Pacific time so you may not see any action till tomorrow later in the day. If you paid for one day shipping it will probably go out Monday or Tuesday and you will still get it on the 16th. Overnight shipping is fast! When I return my K4 they overnighted me a new one but it didn't ship till around midnight later that night and I got it around 1pm the next day through UPS. |

I'm hoping for better than that. I'm hoping they shipped yesterday, and so will arrive tomorrow. Sometimes the 'shipping soon' just doesn't catch up with the actual shipping for some reason. I've seen that happen a few times.

I personally avoid Best Buy purchases for anything. Returns to them are always sticky. We bought a washer and dryer from them last year and weren't told until two hours past our delivery window that the items were no longer being carried by Best Buy. They did offer a different model for the same price, but there were a down grade from what we bought. Anyhow it was mess. Perhaps its just out local stores but each time we needed to make a return or exchange to them it was a hassle.
