I got Royal Mail and although when I pressed track delivery nothing loaded, by opening the page in safari and clicking on the url, the url was formatted incorrectly, however at the end of the url it had the Royal Mail tracking ID which works for tracking it.
Got a tip for us?

You may be in luck, my delivery changed to the 19th but Royal Mail just sent a text to say it'll be here today!
Nice one. Minen is with my local post office so hopefully will be delivered today. Just wish my damn phone would change from preparing to ship

Mine that was scheduled for the 23d , I got a notification it would be delivered tomorrow.
Although I have been told it will arrive today, by 12:17, it only arrived at the depot, which is a good hour and a half drive away, at 11:01. So either "no chance" or misleading time(s).In the UK. Woke up to a message from Royal Mail re a parcel from syncreon Technology. Will arrive 08:17 to 12:17.
As the order status kept saying 24th November, this represents a considerable improvement.
By the way, the Apple lorry hijack is reported to have been £5 million, 48 palettes, including watches, iPhone 11 and AirPods. (It wouldn't be the first time this type of information has later been found deliberately misleading when first released.) Stuff was loaded onto another lorry and the one that was held up has been found.

Guess it will be tomorrow...Updated:
15:22 - got another message saying would be delivered today.
17:41 - well after usual deliveries - knock, knock - delivered.
Clearly something odd happening inside Royal Mail. We NEVER get things this late. Only live yards from their depot and I thought they were closed up by now.

Well I’ve decided to order one...sadly not available until 30th december lol
Just got my first one, and the second will delivered by lunch. This is used in my office, and I like the cleaner sound with less bass than the bigger one. Ill move the big one back home to do Dolby Atmos with my TV.
If you have an apple store nearby you can check daily for stock, order online, and pickup locally
I. AM. LITERALLY. SO. ANGRY.
FedEx says they “attempted delivery but couldn’t deliver the package as I wasn’t home”.
WELL
I was literally in the front room facing out the window, to my path and the road in front of my house.
No FedEx Truck. No FedEx person. No people or vehicles at all, actually.
They said that they left a “door hanger” at my door.
None of those.
I am so angry.

I ordered mine right when the store opened and created two orders to get three of them. my original date was Nov 25-27 but I got my order of one yesterday (the 17th)and then my order of two today.

I had a text message from them yesterday telling me ‘Your Retailer’ (I’ll assume it’s iStore who I pre-ordered mine from) should have been here today but nada.
Am only 10 minutes up the road from our nearest sorting office but I agree with your sentiments-the other week I ordered some contact lenses online and they delivered them at 8pm at night ?
I’m having constant issues with my stereo pair after a good start. ?
Constantly podcasts and music will stop co,img out of one of the pair for about 30 seconds, then come back.
the other issue is that some times one of the pair will just flat out state it cannot connect to the internet, until I restart it, and end up having to reset the pair.
no idea why this is happening. They are about 10 feet from the WiFi router (nighthawk wifi6 one, so pretty decent). They are within 3 feet of each other. No other devices have issues. Only have about 5 devices connecting to the router via WiFi.
hoping there’s an update to sort this out.

Really liking mine so far, pissed you can't stereo pair them to a Mac, but hopefully that will come.
Just set mine up and took first test drive. Sound is really excellent - I put it on my desk along with the two 'adult' HomePods, and tried a few tracks from my music library. The quality of the mini is very very good, with much less depth and bass to the sound compared to the full size HomePods, and much less maximum volume available. All of this is what you would expect, and with all of that said, I'm very pleased with this little speaker.
I don't really have a plan yet for where I'll be using it, but the size makes it considerably more flexible in placement.
I've had a text saying that I should expect my parcel today. I can't wait get it set up and working in the kitchen.
