I'll be picking it up this afternoon.

But wait ... didn't they tell you not before Nov. 22? Are you daring the blue shirts to tackle you? I want video!
Or maybe it just came faster than they estimated.
Some businesses will do that - get a long estimate, that way the customer's pretty darn happy when it comes early.
Now my other half is: "I want a tablet!" "I want an ereader!" Then I ask if that's what he wants for Christmas and to tell me now before I get his other gift I'd planned on. Then he decides he doesn't want/need/or will use any of those things, pbooks are cool, ebooks are dumb. Sigh. I'm about to hand him his mother's Kobo (haven't wrapped it yet, still loading books I come across on it) and let him play with it. I know he won't like it, it's the wifi, not touch, and he'll get frustrated that it won't bend to his will. But maybe it'll let him know if he wants a more expensive reader or go tablet (except he doesn't like the iPad ...)
I'm half tempted to get him the A1, since he keeps trying to take my Flyer (iPad's too big, he has one for work and doesn't like the size), but then he's going to be jealous that I have the better specs.
I can't put up with that, or really afford that gift, unless I give him a taste of his own medicine and say I'll contribute to his tablet but he can't open until Christmas (he tried that with the Flyer).
