Ok Ladies and Gents, here is the latest lowdown. After pulling a few calls to friends in the US, I finally got hold of a number for Gemestop.com that worked. After enjoying a very pleasant 15 minutes listening to some really bad 'Muzak' whilst on hold 
I had a chat with a nice chap about what was holding up the UK JTL Pre-Orders and when would they likely be processed.
I had a chat with a nice chap about what was holding up the UK JTL Pre-Orders and when would they likely be processed. The result is (and obviously I can only speak for my pre-order re: 31st August, but see no reason why others wont be handled the same), the order has been processed and will be shipped this evening (US time).
What held up the International Orders?
He didn't really know 'why' they should have been held back except for one small detail, the International Courier they use was one plane down and not making any pickups the past 24 hours.
Blame SOE? Nah
Blame Activision?> Too right! *slackers*
Blame Gamestop? Maybe
Blame FedEx? Now thats a new one to me...so I'll go with that
I'll post another update once I am certain it has been shipped. Obviously if any others see their status changed re: gamestop.com and EU orders, then please do post so we confirm it from another source.
Regards
Mini-D

I'm in the US, and I ordered JTL from Gamestop as well. My order also says "usually ships within 24 horus." It doesn't say anything about a bonus or anything like that. I have a couple concerns.
First: I better get my flash speeder, or I'm going to make several angry phone calls to Gamestop, and SOE if I have to.
Second: Why didn't they ship it a week ago so I would get it on the release date (like every other web-order I've ever placed)?
This whole thing is ridiculous and somebody at Gamestop should get fired for it.

I'm in the US and I ordered 3 of pre-order beta discs from Gamestop on 9/7 (I have 3 accounts) for the flash speeder. I received one of three discs two weeks ago, and have not received the other two yet. Supposedly they are still being processed. I sent an email asking what was up on the 20th, got a response back saying:
Dear Customer,
We are sorry for the inconvenience, we will be sending you 2 more bonus
discs. Thank you for shopping with us!

My understanding is that I need both the pre-order beta discs, for the swoop, and the retail discs, to actually play jtl. So far I've received 1 beta disc and no retail discs. I called them today, and someone told me that I should get something maybe next week!!!
So, it's not just those that are in Europe that are having problems with this company. I'm never ordering from them again.

Ok my status has now changed to shipped, and I have my UPS tracking number. When I click on the link tho to check where the package is, it comes up with this:
Unable to track shipment
UPS could not locate the shipment details for the tracking number you entered. Please make sure the tracking number you entered is valid and try again.
Ok after trying a couple of times, we found out that when it rejects the number, it actually puts the spaces in between the numbers and letters. So copythis number andgo back to the previous page, delete the old number and paste the new one in with the spaces. It shows you the info you need to know.
Anyway guys, good luck with all of your orders, i will still be hanging around the thread to say how things progress.

No, mine hasnt either.
Apart from that, I have not received my beta cd with my Pre-order key either. Which means, I dont think I will be getting my Flash Speeder as well.
I sent them an email but have not got a reply.
Lessons learnt.

I'm guessing they might take a few hours to update all the international orders. I mean I did pre order back in May so, maybe later tonight your status should change.
Just hope mine doesn't stay stuck on processing heh.
