In order to meet the release day delivery they were offering I'd think they'd need to start shipping today, it's no surprise.

Actually,

When the DXG came out and I had Release Date Delivery, it shipped the day before release day and I got it on the release date... it didn't ship TWO days before.

My credit card has been billed for my K3 WiFi + 3G but not for my WiFi only. (One for me and one for my wife - both ordered at the same time.)

Have not received an email notice.

But I bet if they'd had as many orders for the DXG as they likely have for the 3 they have started earlier (that is if they didn't, I wouldn't be surprised if some of the DXG's shipped TWO days before )

Reports are coming in during the last few minutes over on the Amazon forums of people who have received their "shipped" emails.

The distribution folks are going to be pretty frazzled today.

I wonder from which city they will be shipped? My KDXG was shipped from Lexington, KY via UPS. I assume Amazon probably has them staged in various facilities around the world.

The people on Kindle Boards who have posted the details of their shipping confirmation all indicate that they are coming from Kentucky.
