Here's how "Ship by Order Date" happens, after this backlog is cleared up. When Gratis gets enough orders, they send a batch to Apple, Apple ships them all out.

But right now, Gratis sent a batch of over 1000 to Apple. I assume our STV dates aren't on our orders (why would they be?), so Apple is just going through the orders and sending them as fast as possible. Gratis probably didn't realize someone would be ungrateful enough to complain about getting a free iPod a few days later than someone else lol
