I swear you people are Magic. I wandered over here to check on shipping, and sure enough, while I was reading the very informative thread, my FedEx tracking info came in my email!

No FedEx info yet, but that's not a shock. FedEx usually ships pretty fast to me, so that's great -- I'm teaching a dance class in a couple of weeks, and post-rooting, this sounds like an awesome tool for that!

Time to start the Count Down....
Any one know what the average ship time is?

It depends on where it's being shipped to. If your shipping information hasn't been updated yet, you can look up the estimated shipping time here: http://www.fedex.com/grd/maps/ShowMapEntry.do and use the zip code 75039. Please note that the shipping times are in business days!

I've had my shipping notification since the 25th but it still says no information on the fedex site. I hope it magically show up before fedex updates. =)

I put my order in a little before 14:00 Central time and just got my Woot tracking number.

More exciting than waiting for Thomas the Tank Engine Woots for my 3 year old!

That's when mine was shipped, too. I've gotten some tracking updates, though. The last one says, "Departed FedEx location Hutchins, TX" and that was March 26th and 5:32 AM. It previously said the next shipping update would come on the 27th but that came and went with no updates. My estimated arrival time is the 30th here in NE Ohio.

just got my tracking. So delivery Thursday? (since no pickup today?)

I really wonder if this is one if not the largest thing woot has done as in single item sales?

I wish mine had some kind of update. I ordered around 4AM so I should be in the first batch and I live within the two day delivery zone so hopefully it will show up today.

The pickup is expected today......

Though still no tracking number for my 9:42pm order (central time). But it's Ok, my F5 key can withstand the stress. It's got lots of experience from the BоС times......

Depends how you look at it.

If you mean the total revenue generated in one sale, then the answer is DEFINITELY YES

If you mean the sheer number of Woots sold within a single 24 hour offering, then the answer is NOT EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE

Anyone have a "This is how you install VEGAn-Tab" step by step?

I rooted my Nook Color no problem, but the thread for the Vegan-tab development is a mess and hard to understand.

FedEx is notorious for their tracking updates (or lack thereof). I find it best not to rely on it. I've had instances where it has not been updated till it was either handed off to USPS, out for delivery, or already in my hands.

That said, Ordered at 1349 and received shipping confirmation and tracking number today at 1433.

These shipping FedEx Ground?

I have to wait forever for my g-tablet to be delivered...I think I will #blameshift

I wonder if anyone got that

they have youtube videos on these rom installs so go ahead and read the how to guides and go over it while watching the video. its helped me to understand what is going on.

So I ordered ~ 1PM eastern last week and I just received a shipping update from woot today around 3pm.

So is the general consensus that we should do an OTA update when we get the device even if we plan to install a custom ROM at some point?

xda also states to read up on nvflash and adb before you install a new rom. if you brick it nvflash will restore you back to stock rom and im still trying to figure out what adb is. haha

Ordered @ 11:30am Mountain Time and just got a Shipping Email. Tracking number is not good yet, but I expected that. I'm in New Mexico (next to Texas) so I would expect, at most, a 2 day trip.

you think woot has sold more of 1 single item, (not woot off) in 1 day?

From my limited understanding, I believe adb is a shell that lets you perform commands at the system level if the GUIs, etc. aren't functioning correctly.

Hopefully, one day I'lll be able to find out for sure provided Woot ever ships my gTab...

Lol ya that was GREAT!!! Poor Shift.

bacdoc wrote:These shipping FedEx Ground?

Mine says just FedEx, but not Smartpost.

I don't know how to tell if it's Ground or Home or ?

So what is THE rom to install? Seems to be even between TnT and Vegan. What's the absolute best to have?

dedpetls wrote:you think woot has sold more of 1 single item, (not woot off) in 1 day?

If you click on a words "NOT EVEN REMOVELY CLOSE" in the post to which you replied, you'd be taken to a thread related to one such item (50,000 sales).

bacdoc wrote:These shipping FedEx Ground?

Its amazing how no one reads any of the thread whatsoever. Sorry but weeding through all of the "mine shipped" and already answered questions is getting frustrating. What happened to the days of censored woot, when they deleted the useless posts?

To answer your question it is FedEx ground, it's on the Blog page and was on the Woot.com main site when you bought the tablet.

Woot! Ask and you shall receive. Just got my tracking info. Thanx Woot.

WOOO WHOO!!! finally got my tracking number. I ordered around 3PM PST

ADB for lack of better description, is basically a remote command line interface for android. ADB runs on your computer, in the computer command line, and gives you the android version(commands, protocols, etc) of a command line without having to type stuff on your phone. This might not be the most accurate description, but it's what I tell people who ask about rooting their Android phones so they can understand.

Just got my shipping confirmation. I ordered around 1pm west-coast time.

Ordered at 5pm CST and just got my FedEx email. Hopefully just 2 days to Chicago area.

Woot! Just got my tracking number. Ordered around 4pm Pacific. What a great product for my first woot!!

Roll on Thursday or Friday!!!

I live in south tx my order was with the first batch.. Woot is based out of tx I still haven't received my gtablet. From previous posts you will read that woot ships with fedex home delivery.. They only deliver on tues-sat. So I expect it tomorrow. (Thats what fedex.com says) Only one person that lives in Houston has reported that he has received his. shipped out friday arrived at his fedex sat morning i figure. So at the earliest we are gonna get it tomorrow. I believe mine is sitting at my fedex.. they are probably gonna scan it in the morning put it in the van and deliver it.. Woot has not control once they are picked up from their warehouse.. patience.

I'm Starting to wonder if these are all bot posts and I've been hoodwinked. No magic here, keep reading the posts but no shipping email yet...Oh well I guess I'll check again tomorrow.

no bot here. I'm flesh and blood and very impatient lol.

casualgeek wrote:Just hoping we get two. Wife ordered one, then when I went to order it wouldn't let me (we use the same CC). So I had her email Woot. They supposedly bumped the order to 2. But her account still shows one.

She got a shipping email today, it says one. But my credit card got billed twice. So, hopefully we receive two. But she is sending a email to Woot to be proactive.

Same story here except it was my account and I ordered one then my wife changed her mind and wanted one herself.

While reading posts about people reading posts and getting their shipping info.... I got mine.

Woo!

So, I guess my Woot-off lights aren't going to pay for my retirement due to their rarity.

I ordered at around 1PM CST, and my tracking number was sent today at 1:53PM.

I assume that it will be on the truck here in the Florida panhandle tonight, and I will receive it first thing in the morning tomorrow.

I also believe that I will win Wednesday's Lotto tomorrow, and that the New Orleans Saints will draft my extremely ancient ass in the second round.

Thank you Shanebob! I just received my "Shipped" notification and was wondering which day of the week I need to stay home to wait. Ha. Unfortunately, I'm in the 4-day area, so I probably won't receive it 'til Friday if I'm lucky. Ah, well...
