Check your shipping status!
Hi all,
Just noticed something of interest on my Powermac G5 order. I ordered the 2 Ghz Dual within 10 minutes of the end of the Keynote. Already figuring that I had spent enough, I left shipping as standard UPS ground. Even on my purchase confirmation, it reads "Your chosen shipping method is standard shipping."
Imagine my surprise today when I wen to look at my order status and the shipping has changed to "Priority overnight!"
Anyone else experience this change? Perhaps a bonus for early adopters?
I can't wait to get my baby.

...you lucky bastard!
However, my dual G5 now says priority overnight. Nice.
So it'll get to you September 9 instead of September 8.
Brand spankin-new iPods and PowerBooks are shipped FedEx International Direct Distribution from Taiwan, regardless of chosen shipping method.
PowerMacs, displays, and other various stocked items are shipped from near Sacramento, CA. Ground shipping from Sac to the SF Bay Area IS overnight, so if you live in the region, you shouldn't ever pick anything other than ground for Apple Store shipping.
Just some tips.
This is just one more of the little things that Apple does for it's customers that goes unmentioned for the most part, but is very much appreciated.
Shipping Method
2 Day
I ordered as soon as the Apple Store came back on-line after the keynote (but then I ordered a "lowly" 1.6G box...)
