Apple TVs are on the way from Shenzhen

Wow.

No sooner had we published the post about Apple TVs being queued for shipping than our TUAW mailboxes were filled with a steady stream of shipping notices.

The new Apple TVs are now being shipped from Shenzhen, China to a variety of destinations, and most people are seeing either Thursday, September 30 or Friday, October 1 as the delivery date.

I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl about the shipment - a middle-aged, slightly overweight schoolgirl with a beard, but you get the idea.

Thanks to the many tipsters who let us know about the packages that shipped while we were sleeping.
