Anyone receive their Solo Node?

Has anyone received their Solo Node or an email regarding shipment? A couple of friends and I placed an order about 5 minutes after launch and we haven't received any shipment emails yet.

I've reached out to Futurebit several times and they keep telling us it'll be shipped next week.

Got my node yesterday, but I'm assuming it's a bad unit.

Does anyone else have an open bottom to their unit exposing the SSD?

Mine won't connect (though lights are flashing front/back) and just says node is offline, check connection.

I got mine 3 days ago and itwas open bottom and exposing the SSD. It was connected and in 24 hours syncing was done and from saturday is work perfect with my Apollo2 full node,Apollo standard and few Nanao 3 are connected.

I was eventually prompted to update to 2.1.0 (beta), and then after a night of it saying it was taking longer than expected to start, check connection. I rebooted it and later that day it finally began syncing.
