I am soooooooooo glad to hear that y'all have not received anything yet (although it is annoying).  I was beginning to get paranoid that maybe I had missed something.

As for Iowa City, I have worked in the city the past three years...it really is a nice place to live.  It's very pretty, lots of interesting events for a town its size, and some really good restaurants/coffee shops/bars.  Let me know if you have any specific questions!
