Ok, well the MPD thread now has to switch focus from *****ing and moaning about the company itelf, to speculating endlessly on the following things:

1) the outside possibility that they might ship early (i.e. today)
2) whether those who get a shipping confirmation on Friday will receive their devices on Saturday
3) Which 'batch' you will be in (assuming this stuff about it going out in 'batches' is true)

to answer those questions myself:

1. no chance
2. possible, but not likely, depends on Royal Mail's backlog in your area, how early they received the device the previous day
3. I'm thinking not the first one, probably Monday as I ordered on 21st October. Reckon I'll get it on Tuesday, but would love to be wrong and get it earlier.


BTW, does anyone know if we'll get a tracking number when our device ships? I looovvvve following parcels, even if it's only going to be for a short distance.
