Spain 1st April
Madness

Officially the 28th in the Netherlands, but that could be the date that it;s shipped to providers/stores.

thanks picked up one from carphone, theirs so many of them laying about anyway, as i dont think many umderstand the concept, of this remarkable phone.

Carphone staff when asked in 4 stores in the 'city' told me to go to there managers when I asked a couple of weeks ago. Two didn't have a clue, one said they would not be getting it and the last spoke to me in the angriest tone I could imagine to go away.

'ello
Chitterchatter.co.uk advertised in the Metro today about these phones. Phoned this morning and mine will be with me tomorrow. I've upgraded from a Touch Pro2 (t-mobile contract expired in Feb 11). £35 pm/18 month
It's unbranded so should have the 16Gb SD card. Only downer is that the warranty will be covered by Sony for 2 years and their customer service leaves much to be desired..
Looking forward to my first android phone, saw a dummy unit in Orange at the weekend, not that much bigger and a bit lighter than my TP2

I'm also in 15th-22nd bracket. Hoping that it will ship on Wednesday but considering the past history afraid to float my hopes high.
Rohan just blogged: Shipping tomorrow, February batch: shipping last week of January
Just want to see some hands on reviews from actual folks. I'm sure they will be all good and then I can part with my cash.
Upcoming Review
I'll post a review as soon as I have a chance to play with mine for a bit (along with the rest of the world, I'm sure). My ship date is 15-22, so I'm expecting it at my doorstep within the next week if it's going out in the first batch. Hopefully we get some shipping info soon.
Do you know which shipping company NI uses for a shipment to US/Canada? Originally, it was DHL but then they were not sure.
They blogged that they will use DHL and TNT, no info which one for US/Canada
Can anyone tell me if the shipping includes Greece?
I'll wait for full reviews until I buy it

Got the same email and I pre-ordered 2 hours after it was available for pre-order!!
If I had to guess, I would say that it is backordered because they don't have them in the warehouse yet. It doesn't surprise me, since they aren't due for release untill March.
I don't think that this email means anything. Its is probably just autogenerated because the stock is on the premises.
I just pre-ordered today (in-store at around 12:30) but everything seemed to go through smoothly. It says "Will arrive in 2-3 weeks" on my receipt (which would mean on or before the 6th of March, just like the ads say)

I think you might be right......I think it is just an auto generated email. When I called AT&T today the rep did not know what he was talking about. He told me I would get my Atrix 2 business days after it is shipped...duh.....
Sine I didn't expect to get it until March 6th I guess they have time to make more! I started to panic at first but the more I think about it...its not a big deal. They have time to make ramp up production......
the email can't mean anything. i ordered one hour after preorders were up and i received this email today.
It's 'backordered' because it was a pre-order.
I've now had that email twice in the last five hours...for a Premier Atrix pre-order.

The Official "I got my tracking confirmation!" thread

Well guys, the countdown to shipping is on with the most consistent "rumor" being that phones will start shipping on the 18th. With the 17th being the day AT&T usually launches high end phones alot of us are thinking we're gonna get our hands on it sooner than the official launch date of the 21st so if you get your tracking confirmation, post here with your place of purchase and eta.
You may have also posted this in the att section? Any reason for creating a new thread?

If they were shipping to have them delivered on or before the 17th they would have shipped this afternoon with delivery on Friday. Doesn't look like that's happening. My guess would be shipping on Monday afternoon the 18th with delivery on the 20th.

Which is why I created this thread. With so much info floating around out there as to when shipping will commence, this will give us a central location to let it be known who's shipping, when and when it's to be expected.

For Sprint I'm guessing Monday shipping with Tuesday latest Wednesday arrival. Sprint seems to exclusively overnight their packages but without the Saturday delivery option.

Got a call earlier to say it was in stock but I couldn't collect until tomorrow from nine onwards, although they also said if I didn't collect tomorrow it would go back into their stock for resale!
How did you manage to get them to ship yours, was it a payg?

You said pre-ordered, you mean on the website? Those are not shipping out yet. The only people who have them are the people who backed the Kickstarter last year.
If I'm reading this right and you pre-ordered it on there website (or affiliate like Amazon), it doesn't ship until June 25th, which means you should get it sometime between June 28rh and .July 5th (give or take).
Hope this helps!

Yeah, they pushed it back to June due to manufacturing times being longer than expected. Being such a brand new company, the fact that they are not only shipping out the product with only a few months delay AND the product is really good (personal opinion) shows a lot. I would support this company in any further projects they do.
I got this email from OUYA on the 8th of June.
"Yep... it’s true.
Your OUYA has arrived at our distribution center and we expect it to land on your doorstep within the next two weeks (give or take a day or two depending on your location).
Be on the lookout for a confirmation email that will follow once your shipment has been picked up for delivery and which will include your personalized tracking number."
I still have not received my confirmation email or any kind of tracking number, but it should be here around the 22nd according to the email.

It's mid June and I haven't received a tracking number yet.
Two weeks ago they reply to my email and claimed that my shipping address was wrong. but I haven't heard anything from them since then yet.
I contact through support many times but they even won't answer... Its really insulting to be treated like that.

I preordered February 5th which was the last day to get "an April shipment". However, they sent me an email 8 days ago saying its on it way and I'd get the tracking number shortly, but havent gotten one yet.
I would sure hope all preorders are filled before retail.

I preordered 9th September got email 11th June saying dispatching, another email with tracking on 15th with estimate between 18th june and 8th july.
Doesn't track yet but was dispatched via dhl packet plus which dhl claims 3-8 days for European deliveries.
Your not much different to me it seems given 5 month difference in preorder.

Eeeek. I'm beginning to think even the June 25th launch may be in trouble. Unless they're basically pushing all the units to the retail channels and making the pre-orders/Kickstarters wait, since we have already paid - the "screw those guys" mentality.
I was not a Kickstarter backer, but just a pre-order customer. I ordered mine in late January or early Feb. Just got my tracking number today. It says it will be here between June 20th and July 10th. I will let you know when I get mine.
Sorry to hear about the people who ordered earlier than me, and have not received any information. I emailed them in early May about the April ship date, and it took about a week for them to respond saying that they had my order, and I was not forgotten. I thought they had forgotten about me too.

Ya I was a early kickstarter backer and I think they sent a bum tracking number a while ago and that doesn't even include the extra controllers. They really suck at supply chain management.

Kickstarter backer here 2.
I received my tracking number on the 10th this month. 10 days ago. Needless to say that I am still waiting.
As far as I am concerned the whole Kickstarter idea was good. Bad management however forced them to stockpile wholesale orders before Kickstarter backers all had their OUYA. Backers could have accepted, grumbling, any delays as long as they were supported by proper communications. Sadly OUYA's communication skills are even worse then their management skills. And from what I read, their programming leaves a lot to be desired as well.
This was my first Kickstarter project that I backed, and I am very disappointed by how this is all working out.

Hey guys. Pre ordered in May and still nothing.
They posted a blog entry yesterday which stated "T-5 Days To Launch". So some of us will probably have to wait 4 more days until shipping.
I've cancelled my order, I'm going to buy on the day of release.
I pre ordered in January and never heard anything from them. I E-mailed them 2 weeks ago and they replied back after 10 days stating they had trouble verifying my shipping address, so I wouldn't receive it until after release day.
The ouya support is a massive turn off. It feels like the setup is being run from a teenagers garden shed with a couple of friends helping out when they finish their paper round.
Are these people meant to be professionals in their field?!
I wonder how long until I receive my refund...

I was a day or two away from trying to cancel my order when I got the email saying that my order was at the warehouse ready to be shipped. I keep trying to track it, but it still has not shown up on the dhl site yet. The email said writing 24-48- hours it would be trackable, but it is still not there yet, even after 72 hours. Hopefully it comes soon, won't be much of a pre order if it comes after it is available in stores.
Very bad customer service on their part.
