Now it's a December ship date? Not to complain too much, but I placed an order on Sept. 18 (probably too late). The original ship date Amazon gave was early October. Then it was moved down to early November.Today I got an e-mail asking me to approve of yet another new ship date: early December. Somewhat upsetting. These really ARE selling like hotcakes.

Try ordering it from apple.com or go to the store. Yes you have to pay tax, but you'll get it faster. I ordered mine on Oct 30. and am supposed to get it by Nov 7. It's a lot faster and you can get the free engraving

Well, yay, I got my Amazon order shipped, too. Bless 'em. I mean Apple HAS to beat them to the punch. But having one to gift with is very nice indeed.

Thanks Amazon! Mine just arrived half an hour ago (today, Nov. 6).Beats that frightening mid-December ship date initially expected.

I placed an order at Amazon for the new iPod Shuffle back in September as well.Last week, I got a notification about another delay, and it would be shipping November 16. I'm Amazon Prime, so I thought, I'd spring $3.99 to upgrade to one-day shipping so that at least I'd have it that weekend. When I did, Amazon told me it would ship on November 30. So I changed it back to 2-day, and it said it would ship in early December.Needless to say, I cancelled the order with Amazon. Placed an order on the Apple store late on Thursday November 2. Shipped from China on November 3. Arrived on Monday November 6.I love the new shuffle ... great for running and exercise ... I've already run over 20 miles with it!

I ordered my from Amazon last week and got it today, you should probably buy it soon if it is for Christmas but don't worry about not getting it until after then.

I was very upset that Amazon in fact did not get their dates straight (I called customer service when I got the update). I have ordered mine 10/3 with their promise to deliver by 10/19. Well, I was promised early december delivery date but got my shipment today. Thanks, Amazon. I also ordered one from apple.com, got it in 2 days with free shipping also (I did have to pay tax). One difference though, apple sent my merchandise in a very safe and sturdy packaging. well cushioned and supported. Amazon shipment came in a box with very minimal cushion. Items rattled when I picked it up from my mailbox. My consolation is that it came prior to Christmas.

Like you, I ordered over a month ago, and I got the same email for a December ship date. I went to the Apple store today to pick one up - no problems. However, I got home and received an email from Amazon saying they've shipped the order! What's up with that? Oh well...it'll make a good gift.

I just ordered mine from apple.com. Free shipping, free engraving, in stock.

I just checked bestbuy.com and they have the Shuffle for $75.99 and it's supposed to ship within one day. Costs a little more but you'd get it faster.

When Amazon finally listed a shipping date, it was Apr 15. Then on Apr 12 or 13, it now says shipping Apr 29. This is very frustrating.

I preordered mine and on my Amazon order page it says that "this item will NOT arrive by December 24th" I had heard mid-December but based on the fact that it will not arrive by Christmas, I'm not real confident in a December release.

I am in the same boat. I ordered this about a month ago and I just got an e-mail showing that the delivery is pushed back another 1-2 weeks. I'm wondering if Amazon really does have them at all.

Marjorie, when was your original shipment date? I'm just tring to get a feel for when mines may come.

Same here. I pre-ordered on September 17th and still don't have a ship date. I have always had good luck pre-ordering things in the past. I have actually received an item or two before the official release date. I was hoping UPS would surprise me with a delivery today...

If you do decide to order them you would get/see a shipped or projected delivery date before you finalize your order. So if you do, let me know. I have them on my wish list for my birthday this month.

it is now 4pm eastern time and mine stills says not shipped yet so knowing amazon it will say this until the April 12 (my expected arrival date)and then get changed even though it is already obvious it is not getting shipped because they have already updated this site from saying backordered to 1-3 months heaven forbid amazon actually only preorder the amount they are getting and not make false claims, I spoke to them and they stand by the computers saying it is getting mailed out today yet when I asked if they can double check they put me on hold 20 min then hung up

I did pre-order mine, Oct. 15th, with an estimated delivery date range, provided by Amazon, of Oct. 31-Nov.2. However today is Oct. 31 and the item's status still shows as "Not Yet Shipped"... I've got a feeling they are not going to get it delivered by Nov. 2nd then... ... ...

Same thing just happened to me. Amazon gets these in lots, and allows pre-orders until those lots fill up. In fact, Amazon never sees the Wind, it gets shipped directly from the manufacturer to the buyer. So what probably happened was there are more delays and MSI isn't sure when it can start shipping the lot we're in.What's strange is that this close to the expected ship date, we don't know when it will ship. MSI should at least know how long the delay is.I'll be keeping my eye on other sites to see if they're in stock. I wouldn't go with mwave, since they're charging an extra $80, unless you really want it now.I'm curious if anyone has talked to an amazon rep to see if they have any details on the situation.

I got an April ship date (21st), but it looks more like they just threw it 2 months out. I've had them do that for me as well when the date is arbitrary (I've had things come quicker and a few times they kept pushing it out).

Well, when I first ordered mine, it said date of delivery would be May 30. Then I got an email that said it would be JUNE 30. I wrote the seller, and told them to cancel the order because I didn't want them in a month, I want them now. Never heard back from them and order has not been cancelled. I looked up on the internet about the shipping company and it talks about how slow they are. I'm not accepting the order if it comes after tomorrow. This seller is awful.

I bought mine on August 5th or 6th and I got mine on August 8th! I was surprised to find this in my house today, because when I tracked this item online, my expected delivery date wasn't untill August 11th-14th, so I was not expecting it till next week, but I guess amazon prime works for this..? I am not too sure.

And now that I made a change by applying a gift certificate to my order, I lost my place in line, so my ship date has been bumped back to October 21-November 4. That's with an original purchase date of August 29. Still, for me, with the $75 GC, the wait is worth it. Otherwise, I agree with D. Trotter; if it absolutely, positively has to be there by a certain date.... good luck with that!

Yeah I know, it's terrible how long it's taking honestly. It's now the 18th, and it still says not yet shipped, since tomorrow is Friday, and they don't do weekend shipping, it'll be 22nd on Monday and it STILL won't be in I'm pretty sure, unless they ship it later tonight and it comes in tomorrow...With the RAM difference and with how long I've been waiting already I'm gonna have to stick with Amazon myself.

My hope is that Amazon is being cautious and giving themselves a buffer now. So that when you possibly get it on the 7th you'll be pleasantly surprised. That being said it sounds like Amazon got their shipments in late so that instead of having them day(s) before release so you get it on release day...now they are all after the date. That's what is sounded like when I talked to customer service. Very apologetic but not much they can do. I have 1 day shipping and it's the 8th for me too. I also confirmed that they did NOT oversell the preorders. That was my fear.

LOL, just as I read this, I received an e-mail not more than three minutes ago from Amazon. Delivery date of 29 November. Edit: delivered yesterday.
