I went back and used the code again for the pod charger and convertible journal bundle, 15min before the clock hit 2400 hrs. That added savings from the already discount price left the total 20cents over the minimum for free shipping!

Going by your post time and you saying you just ordered, I would say you missed the boat by about 6 hours seeing as a lot of these special sales end midnight, Eastern Standard Time, unless otherwise stated.
Don't worry though, I fully expect some extra special deals coming down the pike the closer we get to the availability of the PB 2.0+.
No shipping confirmation yet this morning. Where do they ship from? Do I recall somewhere in the US southeast? Not from Canada (where my chargers shipped from)

Globalware is in the Boston area, but I think there was some mention in one of the ShopBlackBerry threads that they may also have a warehouse in Florida.

I placed my order on Jan 24 am after I learned of the promo. Status was "received".
On Jan 25 am, the status changed to "printed".
By Jan 25 evening, the status was changed to "shipped".
On Jan 26 am, I got Fedex notifications of order shipped overnight from Peabody, MA, then Indiana, then Mississauga, ON. and arriving at local delivery center. Fedex delivery arrived at 11am on Jan 26.
It all depends on where you live and where available inventory is.

Did you pay for the shipping or opt for the free shipping?
Did anyone else buy it during the time where the 16gig price went back down to $199
because i managed to use the promo code at that time to get one at $167 AFTER taxes included.
No shipping confirmation, but i have been billed for that exact amount.
For those who ordered the 64gb at this promo price (or even at $299 about to expire), aren't you worried you might get one of the infamous defective ones? Dead pixel(s), bulge on the back, overheating battery? Then there's the whole incident/case/ticket/RMA return hassle to deal with.
RIM's quality control and bureaucracy is starting to worry me.

I am not that worried. The only time I had a hardware problem in five PlayBooks was a 16gb I bought from a Rogers store with a known line of dead pixels. It was in September before the sales and in the end I got it for $300 off. For that I had to spend a hour on the phone to arrange an express exchange. The new Playbook arrived within two days.
Some of the threads complaining about returns and ShopBlackberry were people that just wanted to return the playbook and were confusing Blackberry support with ShopBlackberry. In other words, calling support to try to RMA a Playbook for a refund.
Did anybody who ordered with the promo code get a shipment or processing confirmation yet?
I got a ORDER confirmation and the money deducted but that's it so far.

Some person on RFD just posted that they got a confirmation. I am still waiting, no money deducted, ordered early afternoon yesterday
Just spoke with Shop Blackberry. The rep told me that anyone who used the promotion code TODAY will have their orders cancelled - not sure if that is true or not. He also told me it will take 3-5 business days to get a shipping notification but he will try to put a request to make it faster.

I sure hope that really means just TODAY'S orders. Besides the promo was not even for today anyway.
