I didn't realize that some people can't comprehend what they read without the benefit of paragraphs.

The window I have to type inside on my phone is very small, and I didn't realize how long and rambling it was until after I posted it.

Again, I didn't know it would the a big problem for some to figure out!

But why am I having to defend myself?

First a rude remark, and then a condescending lesson on grammer. I thought this was a thread on delivery dates, not a forum for judging people.

If it's too long for you without paragraphs then I have a suggestion... DON'T READ IT!

Let's all take a deep breath and cool off.

Thank you for your understanding.

Glad you like your new Oasis, maybe the 'Preview Post' would be helpful ?

As an OCC with PE, I find your remark deeply offensive. Is there a safe space on this site where I can go to be comforted?

You may wish to go to the Lounge Forum, which is known for much silliness and off-topic stuff not usually found in our regular forums. Here's the link:

I just received an email from amazon notifying me of delivery on Nov 20, updated from Nov 24.

Now about four hours after that email I looked at track package and is says shipping today Nov 15 for delivery Nov 17.

Shipped today, supposed to arrive by tomorrow. Maybe they had cancellations enough or shipment arrived ahead of schedule?

Mine came a couple days ago, on schedule. 32g wifi. It's my Christmas gift, so I only tried it out to make sure it worked ok. Screen looks great to me too. Everything works. So I had to give it up, so it could be wrapped and hidden away. I also got my cover and it worked fine too. It's a fintie cover. So once again I have to wait. At least I have other things to read with until Christmas.
