In your position I'd really be inclined to hang on the extra few days to get the CE: it looks like a nice edition to have just for the books, which will probably never be available elsewhere. I agree that the shipping has been handled rather clumsily and perhaps it's easy for me to say since I have a digital key from the Kickstarter campaign but I'd really stay with it.
As it is, it's very unlikely I'm going to be playing any time before tomorrow as the download's not going to start until at least 4PM local time I have special low-speed broadband and may not play until I'm done with my latest venture in FO4 anyway.
