    Hey all,

    I was just wondering if there was a difference between checking the status of my order by email or checking it over the phone. I've been just clicking on the order number in the "Order Confirmed" or whatever e-mail they sent me. If there is a difference, I will definitely start doing it by phone because I am very impatient :p.

    Yes, by phone you get a more detailed status. The only time the online status gets updated is when your order is shipped.
