    It is supposed to arrive on 10/5. Can't wait to get it.



    I have an MDP-HDMI adapter and have been streaming netflix to my hdtv using wifi on my Macbook Pro. I am really hoping that this will be able to do the same with a wifi connection as well.



    Some folks are posting that wifi on their old system was slow. I really don't want to have to run a cable!

    Mine is saying it has shipped, and at first said Oct 1 arrival, but now says Oct 5. Dang! I really, really wanted it for streaming music at a party I have on Oct 2. \



    Hopefully FedEx is just being really, really conservative on delivery time.

    FedEx has mine and its tracking system claims delivery by noon, Sept 30.

    Product: APPLE TV-USA



    FedEx says: Estimated delivery to Orlando, FL: Sep 30, 2010 by 4:30 PM





    And my shipment is originating in:



    "SHENZHEN, GD, CN" = China





    Now, my shipment, too, has been updated and no longer says Sep 30, 2010 by 4:30PM, but now says:

    10/05/2010 Tuesday



    I assume it will be delayed because tracking says:

    Sep. 28, 2010 - 12:29AM Picked Up SHENZHEN

    Package received after FedEx cutoff

    No sure why you're so pessimistic. This is FedEx we're talking about. You'll have it in your hands in a day or two. Mine should be here tomorrow according to their site.



    FedEx: miracle of the modern world.

    It seems like it should arrive sooner than Oct. 5th. I wonder if it will sit in customs long. I had a laptop that shipped from china sit in customs for a few days.



    I would be psyched to get it before the weekend...

    With tv, Apple has created the platform that is going to rule home entertainment.



    There will be IOS updates and apps that I can't imagine, but Steve Jobs can and he will implement them.



    For now I am thrilled to be receiving my own tv, it's due to arrive today 9/30/10.

    Yeah, my first FedEx tracker on Monday said: Shipped 9/27, Arrive by 9/30 4:30pm. Then yesterday it arrived in Alaska and shifted to delivered by Oct 5 by 4:30pm. It's been in Alaska for a day now.

    I guess FedEx was just being conservative when they changed my delivery estimate.



    I got mine today! In fact, it was a day earlier than the original date and six days earlier than the latest update! Arrived Sept 29 @ noon...



    I'm already plugged in and playing...
