New shipment date for Homey?

I don't want to 'blur' the discussion much more, but it makes sense to ask this here in stead of a private email to homey (as that would not give others the same information). I'm a geek backer, but I didn't register trough kickstarter (I registered shortly after the campaign closed I think). From reading this, it seems the current shipping schedule is as follows:
- First batch backers: shipped
- Geek and other kickstarter backers: to be shipped early january
- Other orders: shipped in january
As I registered outside of kickstarter, I want to be certain I don't miss the 'geek backer' shipping boat. I'd rather be in the 'early january' batch than in the 'somewhere in january' batch.
Two simple questions:
- Is the schedule I made roughly correct?
- When should I 'ping' athom over email to check if everything is OK with my specific order?
Again, I'm not impatient (athom should take their time and Do Things Right), but I'm excited to get my homey. Sifting trough the forums it can be difficult to get a clear picture, so I just want to confirm if my expectations are correct
@Stefan Is there a combined list of kickstarter and direct backers? Or do the direct backers need to inform Athom first?
The Geek has 450 backers and the rest are 400 backers. But all with the same estimated delivery date.
There are backers that has no credit-cart and payed otherwise.
Orders are sent in order of paid price, so Geek backers are the first after the first batch, and after all Kickstarter backers have their Homey, then the pre-orders are shipped.
This means to me that the outside-of-kickstarter (but 'kickstarter level', not pre-order) will be shipped *before* the pre-orders. I think that's fair. Regardless of that, I would love to have an answer to the original question (i guess almost the same question @MartijnHarte asked) - is there a way to check? The process for non-kickstarter backers seems manual, so (again, regardless of the waiting time mentioned above) I'd love to know when things happen. I would be very happy if the Homey people open a topic where small status updates ('geek level address checks went out', 'all super early backer homeys shipped') are posted without all the debate and distractions Unless there is one and I missed something!
Excited!
:-)
Hopefully Homey number 154 will be shipped soon
I wonder if the serial number matches the backer number....
I known((super)Early Birds get there Homey just before pre-order ), but i still hope Homey number 154 will be shipped soon (i expect it the 4th week of January)
Still awesome to see that the shipping is starting to take place Well done! I'm really looking forward to people trying out stuff!
