I received my OUYA just under 2 weeks ago. My backer number was somewhere a bit under 4K. I had the same experience with DHL. If it's any sort of consolation,

  When I found out they were shipping DHL I just assumed it would take 3 weeks from when it got my shipping notice and it did. Any time I've ever had something shipped via DHL it's taken a tremendous amount of time to ship, their tracking codes often fail to work, and things often just plain fail. My worst experience was when one time I ordered a Lego set from the main Lego site as a gift and it shipped via DHL. It was nearly a week before I got a tracking number. Then it turned out it was shipping (supposedly) from someplace random like Cyprus or Moldova and was still sitting there. Eventually it moved to New York over the course of a couple weeks where it showed no signs of moving. Needless to say I contacted Lego and they just canceled and refunded my order with a brief apology, no questions asked. I had assumed they'd try to figure out what was up and get my order to me somehow, but nope. Oh? Some random DHL shipping thing? It's just a loss and let's move on. And this from Lego, a large, well-respected international brand. I think Ouya has a problem - their updates and such are too much marketing speak and fake community, not enough authenticity and real engagement. But I'm also willing to believe that any time DHL is in use, it's basically a given that there will be problems.

  I had my ouya shipped to Israel and iirc it only took about 5 days to get here.
