I'll bet my phone is bumping into your phone right this......second! "Get Away from Me! I got some place to be!"

Add another prepared for shipment to the list. I was getting worried, been like that a couple days now.

Yes and I wish it would get to where it's supposed to be more quickly.
Mine was initially scheduled for the 18th, then that disappeared and no date was listed. Then the exception information disappeared and now the scheduled date is back to the 18th. Not going to plan for it being here until Friday. Seems they (Apple and UPS) planned for something that UPS botched.

i ordered from premier... just got off the phone with them. premier has a seperate inventory from the rest of att. this is all according to the customer service rep. he was able to check the status of mine even tho it still says pending on the website. he said it will be shipped on the 18th and will be to my house on the 19th. this is just an fyi for those of you who are waiting to hear anything and you ordered from premier. dont know if this has already been covered somewhere.

irvingc, that is good news! I too ordered on the Premier site and still has the "order will be process" message. I tried calling Premier yesterday but could not get through. I may in fact call again today just to be sure. Thanks for the info!

I'm afraid I might not be so lucky.

my UPS tracking changed... now its back to arriving today, but last in Louisville KY.. at 206 am today.

scheduled delivery today too. weird.

someone mentioned an issue with customs, wonder if the issue is that the packages are now being released? rather than Apple's intervention?

I dunno, I wouldn't give up hope. They are shipping ours from the U.S. and I've also heard that they are definitley gonna ship tomorrow and get here by friday. I still have no tracking number yet, if i don't by tomorrow around noon, i'm gonna start calling customer service.

Oh man,when I called customer service today they were so clueless. They couldn't give me any info at all. They told me the devices were shipping from Apple and gave me a number to call. It was Apple's iPhone support line. The guy there just reconnected me to AT&T. Sooo frustrating! But I'm not giving up hope.

The automated voice on their help line said if you ordered before wednesday, the 17th, your order will arrive on june, the 19th. If ordered wednesday, your order will arrive 2-4 days after shipping. Looks like I barely made it!

Ordered on the 9th (from Apple), and its still "prepared for shipment", not feeling very hopeful at this moment.

I am in the same boat, ordered mine early a.m. on the 10th. I think apple put the breaks on shipping confirmations cause ups was showing everyone phone as delivering early. I hope to receive a shipping notice today, I spoke to an apple rep yesterday and was assured my phone would arrive on Friday. If I don't receive a shipping notification today by noon I will be on the phone again.

I have been in prepared for shipment for three days, but just got the email that my order has shipped. It shows that is shipping fed ex with delivery tomorrow. I am sure the rest of you that ordered from Apple will be getting your emails shortly.

No pre-orders in Canada

UPS has not updated the status of mine since 4am yesterday, 6/17. Still shows

LOUISVILLE, KY, US 06/17/2009 4:00 A.M. THE PACKAGE IS BEING HELD FOR FUTURE DELIVERY. UPS WILL ATTEMPT DELIVERY ON THE DATE REQUESTED

I think I have already gotten the letter from Apple that you reference. That one told me to expect delivery on 6/17. That did not happen. There may be an advantage to Fed Ex.

I ordered mine from Apple on Monday, have been Prepared to Ship since Tuesday PM, but this morning just got my shipment notification: FedEx. But tracking doesn't work just yet (must not be entered into the FedEx system yet). Looking good for tomorrow delivery!

We look forward to a report from you.

I think that Apple will meet its original commitment. However, in order to do that with equity, they used a new procedure, invented on the fly, post announcement. The old practice was to deliver to UPS and put the UPS date into the letter. Both misleading and inequitable in this case.

Nice, looks like some are shipping fedex aferall. I actually was in the Fedex terminal this morning, was looking for any iPhone shipments, didn't see any...Just checked my order status, no tracking number yet...

 

[Dyvim]

My FedEx tracking # just went live: says delivery by 3 pm tomorrow (Friday)! W00t!

 

[buirus]
