No way, wait for your own.

All working, I've transferred all my books via calibre. I haven't been able to connect to my router, not sure what the problem is but from another thread on here it seems common.

All in all, I am VERY impressed. Compared to my original kobo, it is snappy, easy to use, lots of functions, lighter, pretty lilac etc etc. Now I just need a case - paranoid about wrecking the screen.

Are you all jealous?

Very jealous. I was expecting to get it today but there was nothing when I got home

I think my brother is hoping I get it really soon. He's getting annoyed with my whinging hehe.

I wish I got mine today too. It can't be too far off if you received yours today.

Still nothing in Carnarvon WA - bah humbug (again!) - and mine was supposed to be shipped on the 13th....

I'm in Perth now and off to Japan on Tuesday, so I guess I will have to cajole my wife into posting it up there for me - another two week wait

According to Borders' shipping info, international shipments are handed off to the local postal system of the destination country, so no weekend delivery in this case.

I finally got mine today

I got home and there was nothing there. I was really expecting it today. Turns out my brother was hiding it from me .

I can now spend the weekend playing around with it.

I guess I'll have to wait until Monday at the earliest. I hate waiting for parcels now.
