If you've already used Apple's iPhone 4 Case Program app to order your free Bumper, then you know that shipping could take 3 to 5 weeks. If you choose black, you can have your freebie shipped in 2 to 4 weeks.
We've received dozens of emails confirming the lengthy wait times quoted by Apple for the free antenna fix promised to all iPhone 4 users.
During Apple's press conference on July 16th, I ordered a white Bumper so I could ensure receiving the color of my choice before the rush. I planned to get a refund afterward.
My white Bumper shipped on July 23rd with an estimated delivery date of July 29th. That's just 13 days since I placed my order. I paid $4.00 for shipping. The Federal Express record shows my Bumper was even shipped from Shenzhen, China.
So why are the free cases taking so much longer? Would you be willing to pay $4.00 if you knew your free Bumper would arrive in under two weeks? Given the choice, I would.
ordered 3 weeks ago, havent got the email yet. (australia)

Same here, I ordered on Wednesday, received notification that delivery would be three to five weeks, then further information to expect delivery by August 31st and then finally today I received a message that the case would arrive in 3-5 working days.
