Mine's HERE! I got home last night to a note from Fed Ex on my door (they tried to deliver at 11:20 am and I wasn't home) and ran over to the Fed Ex office to pick up my package.

I had actually requested from Donna and Sandy that my shipping address be changed to my new office location, and they said they'd do it, but I guess the message didn't get to shipping. :-(

It's Ice, just what I ordered, and I love it!

Ordered 10/6 Web
CC Charged 11/19
Delivered 11/22

No free anything, but I don't care! I can quit pestering poor Donna and Sandy now! Hope everyone else gets theirs soon.

Well, I ordered back on Oct0ber 5th, and I have yet to receive any *real* information as to what's going on with my order.

I called about three weeks ago, and the guy gave the standard "two weeks from now" comment. I was ok with that. Then, at two weeks and news of the 10/5 orders shipping in earnest, I called again. Got through very quickly and he said he couldn't see why it hadn't shipped. He told me to call back friday to get a tracking number.

I forgot to call on friday, so I call up on Saturday. "Sorry sir, it has not shipped. I will expedite that, if you'd like". Like, DUH.

So, I call up yesterday, it hadn't shipped. Now, I am thinking, what the hell are these people doing?

I call up today. No real news, except they believe mine has shipped.

"Can I get a tracking number with that?" ... "Sorry, I can not find one".

Hmmm, "When did it ship?" ... "It shipped yesterday..."

Hmmm... Now, I have to wonder if:
A. It shipped?
B. It Didn't Ship?
C. Will I be around if it arrives?
D. Should I order another one and see which comes first?

Anyway, I am impatiently waiting. Of course, any information provided by a CSR is simply untrustable.

I thought my experience with my first Palm OS based handheld would be much better. Then again, maybe I expect too much (reasonably informed CSRs, adequate responses, information about ship dates, etc)

Maybe tomorrow...

Received Visor (reg'ler) Graphite (c'mon, it's BLACK) on 11/22 in the a.m. via FedEx Houston, TX
Ordered on 10/6 on the Web
CC charged JUST for the Visor
No belt clip (back order)

First Impressions:
Has a clean look to it
Great metal buttons
Feels more solid than old Palm
I LIKE the cover a lot
Stylus is a stylus...have a Pentopia 3way
Backlight is cool in a dark restaurant
Cradle is also clean

Surprizes:
Cover has a nice rounded look
Ridges look/feel better in person
"Slug" in back can be used to prop up @ angle
2 Date Book Icons (one is "Date Book Plus")
"Plasticy" film over glass...not bad though
Screen offset to the right a bit (better for righties with their thumb hanging over a bit)
BETTER THAN EXPECTED

Well I finally figured out why I didn't have my VisorDx yet. When they shipped it on Friday they left my Suite # off the address, so FedEx couldn't deliver.

I should get it this morning....
