It's in Kentucky right now. Slowly making it's way to Columbia, SC. UPS picked it up Friday, and the estimated arrival date is 1/31. More to come as it arrives.
Background Timeframe
Started October with all referrals coming from FIPG. I had to go first for every one of them, and it was November until I got 4 referrals. At that time I was waiting on double_d to finish up and green for me. He ended up giving me the run around until December (he ended up leaving the site and had a 22 TR too =\), at which point I was having finals and did not bother with trading. Over the Christmas break I got my roommate at USC to be my 5th referral. He completed an offer for me and it greened that night. Being cautious about these sites I waited until I was back in Columbia, before I requested approval because i did not want to be DQed. I requested approval on 1/6. Was approved on 1/18. Item picked up by UPS 1/27.
More importantly I've convinced my friends its legit, and now they'll be helping me and trying to complete sites as well.

So today's the big day?? Did you get it did you get it? hehe.
I'm still waiting on two more yellows to green on that site, but I'm hoping it happens soon... Thanks for the background on it. That's the cool thing about your first freebie, the fact that you can tell all your doubting friends "LOOK, it works!" and show them the ipod, then make them do refs for you. haha.

Bad News. Monday UPS had it OUT FOR DELIVERY HAZARD, KY because someone in KY obviously needed my iPod. It's since been rerouted back to Columbia. Should arrive in Columbia about 3-5 PM today. At my door hopefully tomorrow.

It's here. Got out of my Quantum Mechanics lab and went over to the campus mailroom. I've got a packacge slip from UPS in my mailbox, so I go to pick up my prize. The box was incredibly light. So as I was walking back to my dorm, I kept having doubts about what was in there. I open it up, and a huge bag of air awaits me, and tucked away in the corner was my iPod.
Pictures to come later as I find someone with a digicam.
