I give it a couple more hours and MacRumors will be reporting about it.

Give it like 30 minutes. Seems like a slow news days, so the journalists are probably scouring the forums as we speak.
It makes me wonder if Verizon is going to do the same thing. My confirmation email and status in the app are saying 2 different things. Hopefully Verizon ships via UPS, so that I can have it held at the UPS store near where I work, instead of being delivered to my home (no one will be home all day). The UPS CC is closed on Saturday, and at that rate with work, I won’t get it until my next off day which is Tuesday.
I haven't read all the reviews... I had to stop lol
1. It's hard to read reviews where the people say "I wasn't able to test this because I..." How does Apple choose who gets to review these? Seriously they should choose people who actually want to test out all the functions... And even seeing people post all their review photos when they have shiny, gleaming diamond rings and other stuff loses credibility IMO
2. I already know this watch will work for me. I read a comment somewhere this morning about how most "Youtubers" don't even leave their house lol and I figure that's true so no need...

Just like my car dealership scolded me for telling them I was going to get the oil changed somewhere else and they said I'd ruin the engine 😂
Apple gave me a 9/23 delivery date but still shows preparing to ship 
My Apple.com order status is jumping all over the place. Earlier today changed from a 10/5 to 10/12 window. Then 10/3-10/7 and just now shifted from Processing to Preparing to Ship. “I am sooo confused.” Ordered on 9/8:Orange Alpine Loop-Medium. First listed delivery date was 9/27.
I posted this in another thread, but it might be more suitable here.
I’m tempted to order a Trail Loop for my Ultra watch. My wrist size is approx 160mm.
The S/M size is 130-180mm and the M/L is 245-220mm.
I’m guessing S/M would be the better size, what do you all think?

Mine did the same, was pushed back to 10/21-10/28 Monday and now is showing "preparing to ship".
Id go with S/M. I'm in the same boat. Wrist size is approx. 165mm. I ordered M/L and I should of ordered a S/M
In other words, they sold what they didn't have.
Mine also slipped by one week to October 11th , but then today processed payment and says preparing to ship?? I won’t get my hopes up.
Also orange alpine band. Ordered on Sept. 7th.
That's one nice thing about AT&T. If they have stock, you get it quick. I ordered an iPad once from them at 6:00PM EST and I got it next day by 10:30AM, no extra charge.
hey apple let UPS release them to use tomorrow now that ATT messed up
I can see them holding the phones, as they are huge volume and they have to prepare their support staff, get carriers ready and such. But there is no reason to hold much lower sales volume watches. It's all about The Show for Apple.
My dates are moving around but you guys, with the orange Alpines being pulled forward, give me hope!
Yep. We're all in the same boat. Just a waiting game at this point. I'm sure we'll have some info by tomorrow.Apple gave me a 9/23 delivery date but still shows preparing to ship
Same here - my credit card charge has been cleared (no longer pending). Mine is the orange band - hoping I can exchange it in store for the blue ocean. Too late for me to cancel this order and wait for years till the watch with the right band will be available to ship.Apple gave me a 9/23 delivery date but still shows preparing to ship
Yeah both my ultra and my AirPod pros are still at preparing to dispatch in time for the 23rd
If you are interested in trading bands I'd be interested. I ordered the Blue Ocean band and would much rather have the orange band. Same boat as you, not willing to cancel order and wait. PM me or reply if interested.
