Congrats man. Glad to see it wasn't just a hoax. Enjoy!

WAHOO! My dell order status has changed to 'Shipped'. Here's a little trick I've discovered that seemed to work:

1. Go to your Dell order status page
2. Hit 'refresh' in the browser within 59 seconds
3. Repeat #2

If you refresh this page more than 60 times in 1 hour, it seems to bump your order into some 'priority queue' and your device gets bumped to the top of the queue....

Good Luck!

My UPS trick did not work... guess I have to wait till tomorrow. This wait is certainly going to be longer than my two months wait.
