It's rare. But it's typically the day of the release that you will receive it via UPS or FedEx. And the shipments typically don't leave those warehouses until two days before, which they arrive the day they are set to be released.

There is always one or two who get theirs early but Apple and FedEx/UPS have agreements to not ship till the day of introduction. Your new device is locked up at the local terminal until it goes on the truck on introduction day.
