Fed ex and ups over estimate their delivery days chances are it will be out for delivery in the am
Even if it is there early fed ex will hold it until the day they said they would deliver it. They've been doin that for years and rarely deliver something early. Its the reason I can't stand fed ex. Ups will deliver it whenever it gets to there office. But time wise yes it'll be there before 8pm.

Ok, so I received the phone yesterday. It was got to my house around 7pm-ish. I was at work. What I think about it:
Not highly impressed. It is an improvement coming from the GS3, but not something too exciting. It is smoother, and not laggy, and the display is much more crispier. But its not like the S3 didn't already have a good display and wasn't smooth also. The weight of the phone is light. I thought "once I put the battery on, its going to feel heavier", but nope. Still light, which is good. The dotted back gives the phone a better look. I thought you were going to be able to feel the dots, in a way, while holding it, but not really. Feels like a flat battery cover. The fingerprint to unlock is cool, but how some Youtube reviewers said, it works when it wants to. Not a big deal to me tho. When I bought my GS3, I was coming from the LG Esteem. So I went from one of the best phones Metro had (at that time), to one of the best phones in the world (at that time). Now I'm coming from one of the best phones (S3) to another one of the best phones (S5). So I already knew what to expect, and not really all that surprised as I was when coming from the LG Esteem. The next phone I get must have a feature that can teleport me to my destination if Ima get there late, lol. But of course, I haven't really played with this phone that much to actually say it wasn't worth the money. Just my first impressions.

At the time when I bought it YES it was the best Metro phone. I swapped it for the S3 and felt the difference, then I swapped my S3 for the S4 and felt less difference. Now I'm not going to swap and expend a fortune for the S5 due the same reason. Maybe the Oneplus One could do the job for half of the price.

Did you remove the stock firmware from your site shabbypenguin. I didnt get a chance to download it completely. Think you can reupload it.
