Finally picked them up...and yeah...they're pretty awesome. Great sound, great fit and REALLY portable.

Bottom line, though: if you liked the EarPods, you'll LOVE these. If the EarPods didn't fit or you just didn't like them...you won't like the AirPods.

Ordered from Apple in the U.K. Being shipped by DPD (hurray -- they give one hour delivery windows). Tracking number available but not yet showing up on DPD's site, which is normal this early in the process.

Woo I'm getting mine Friday!

I originally had an Apple order for 1/12, but I just ordered from Best Buy when they had them in stock for about 10 minutes. I paid an extra $20 to get them here before Christmas, but it's so worth it :)

My order due Jan 12 is now preparing for shipment.

Yikes - Jan 12th is my date too... I'm still in processing, but that means I probably need to cancel now. I was going to wait until tomorrow when FedEx delivers a pair and I have them in hand.

Same here. Probably will not show to later this evening from my experience. Waiting on that also, when it does I can change it to deliver to a UPS store/depot and receive it early am on 12/23.

Called Apple they say they did the fastest shipping possible and expedited all orders. Now I see that the real service they used was UPS ground.

Order scheduled for delivery on January 12th has shipped with a delivery date of the 28th. Currently shown in Shanghai. Apple seems to be producing them as fast as they can. The 28th is a lot better than January 12th.
