I got my shipping confirmation around 3:30pm yesterday.
I didn't do rush processing, but I did do shoprunner. I don't know if I am queued differently because of that.
Scheduled For Early Delivery On:
Friday, 01/04/2013, By End of Day
Looks like I'll get mine tomorrow.
EDIT: newegg also ships things out from different places based on region... maybe this has to do with the timing as well.
I'm from the midwest, so mine came from TN, but per the slickdeals thread, people are getting confirmations from cali.
