In case anyone is curious, I'm in Los Angeles and hadn't seen any notifications until yesterday, when I finally got a text at 10:47am! Very exciting to see it come in, even though I had already managed to order AirPods from VZN the day before. The notification itself is awesome, but the information was sadly a bit disheartening for anyone in this huge metro area: the only Apple Store with AirPods in stock, after none being avail anywhere for over a week, was in Manhattan Beach. Kind of surprised that The Grove, Beverly Center, 3rd St Promenade, Pasadena, Glendale Galleria, Americana, Sherman Oaks, etc are getting shafted.
