HP Shipping/Etc (post your switch and ship dates/times)

I would just like to start a thread to get this figured out. According to most, the hPods are shipping out by order switched to, which would mean not necessarily by original Gratis order number. I would like to figure out once and for all if this is true, because someone who switched after me supposedly got theirs already, and I think it's a question many people have. So if you know this for certain, please post, and if you switched and had it shipped, post that too. As for me, I'm

To the original poster I'm almost certain that the Switch To button was not up until 4 PM EST. I was hanging around #freeipods at that point, and it's when people began mentioning it.

Everyone is getting theirs but me! DAMMIT.

I'm going to agree... I have a feeling if it would have been up around 100, given the amount of times people refresh freeipods.com in a minute, that the word would have leaked fast.

I don't think the date/time changed after you switched, either. The IP3 date/time may differ from the orders page and order DETAILS page, but other than that..

So differing inner and outer IP3 times do not reflect the time that you switched to the hPod?

Nope.

No. That time is the arbitrary time at which Gratis decided to update the statuses of people.
