All you guys need to remember that in the past two, or more, years that during the initial shipments of a new Kindle the Amazon website has been painfully slow to update. I think it gets overwhelmed. It is not uncommon to receive the Kindle before the Amazon website indicates it has shipped.

I have Amazon Prime and MOST of my orders come in ONE DAY while Amazon always projects two days. Last year one of my Kindles was just dropped at my door late at night and I picked it up when going for the newspaper early in the morning. That one came 2 days ahead of the Amazon projection.
This year there may be problems for those getting the FEDEX / Smartpost delivery. Congress deadlocked last night and all Federal offices are now gradually closing due to a lack of a budget. As of now, the Post Office is still open but they could be closed tomorrow if funds run out.
Amazon is NOT responsible for unexpected government shut downs.
