950XL Preorder Wave 2 by Dec.11th?

Didn't received any type of notification today. I ended up calling sales support and after a bit of checking, the rep told me I would receive my tracking # in the next 72 hours and probably my phone at the end of next week. Kinda bummed, but at least my order wasn't cancelled or something.

got my phone friday 11th - have not turned it on yet as i dont have a nano sim and i want to ensure my whatsapp history is carried over... less worried about the sms history although i would like it also...
SO i didnt turn it on yet because i wanted to ensure the SIM settings took properly and in the quick start guide it also states to ensure that the sim card is installed on first turn on... also want to make sure the app for the Dock is installed correctly too...
Killing me that i cant turn it on...
It feels great in the hand... has a good weight to it...
i'm thinking of cutting my current micro sim to the nano size... practise run on a spare sim fit OK...
like the fact that the sim card slot is spring loaded unlike the previous Lumia phones, including the 520, 521 and 640...

You don't have to worry about SMS history as it's synced with OneDrive (separate from an OS backup). You just need to make sure it's enabled on your old phone in the Messaging app's settings, and then click Backup Now. Then when you start fresh with your new phone, you can start fresh but your SMS messages should still be there in the Messaging app . If you don't see any messages, just make sure you go into Messaging's settings and select the date range you want to the app to show messages for. That worked for me.
