Now to unbox and check it out.

I'm looking forward to hearing your view of the screen.

FINALLY! No SN yet, but at least it changed to shipping soon! :-)

1) PW SO Wifi ordered 9/6, arrived today.

2) 2nd PW SO Wifi ordered 9/25, had an EDD of 10/25 until today, when it changed to "We'll notify you when we know".

So I'm assuming my second order slipped into the supply-demand void and won't have a date for a while.

Here is the start of my review on the screen. I'm initially disappointed with it.

nobylspoon · 10-02-2012, 03:54 PM

I just received a delivery notice for my PW and case. Of course they waited until after my lunch break to deliver

jocampo · 10-02-2012, 04:12 PM

P.O Box manager called me... mine arrived ...

Wait for me, beloved Kindle PW... wait for me ... lol ...

geekmaster · 10-02-2012, 04:24 PM

FedEx left a package at the door.

It was not from amazon.

Just more development kits from Texas Instruments to add to my rather large collection.

But still waiting for my (shipped) Paperwhite...

Thanks for the information. I responded in your post that I think you have a defective unit. So far I am pleased with the two units I received.

I can try and get a pic a little later unless someone beats me to it. It's a black box that looks just like the box my Kindle touch came in (except color) and like the KT the label in on the devices box it's not shipped in a separate shipping box.

I preordered kindle on first day available, selected one day shipping. Not here today and tracking hasn't updated at all. Amazon is just refunding me $4 and says I'll have to wait another 2-3 days. Not happy.

twowheels · 10-02-2012, 08:32 PM

Anybody else get a $3 promotional credit for "buying a qualifying kindle accessory"? I just got an email referencing my cover order.

My wife's pink cover arrived today and they updated her PW Wifi NSO to "shipping soon" with an estimated arrival at 10/10...which is perfect cuz her birthday is 10/11. I'm doing the one day shipping $3.98/item and am a prime member

sirmaru · 10-02-2012, 08:40 PM

My NSO PW is still scheduled for 10/11 delivery and my KF HD 7" 32 Gb is still scheduled for 10/25 delivery.

However, my PW Tan Leather case originally scheduled for 10/31 was changed to 10/3 and has been shipped.

Some of those PW's received yesterday and today came with blotches on the bottom of their screens. I hope that problem is resolved for the shipments due on 10/11.

I also have Prime.

My Wifi SO has been saying "Shipping soon" for a few days now

I orded as soon as preorder was available.
