I haven't received anything except for the initial email from Apple showing Processing Items Delivers: 9/19 by Standard Shipping.

I'm totally anxious. Trying to keep things in perspective, though.

I haven't received a new email notification, but I checked order status late last might and it is now preparing for shipment. No tracking number or anything, but it's encouraging to see progress.

The guy at T-Mobile is possibly wrong. He?s a low level employee who has no clue what Apple and the shippers are doing. With the iPhone 4 launch in 2010 many phones were delivered several days early. Apple pitched a fit. I don?t see it happening again.
I agree, although it would be nice if Apple threw us a bone and let those of us who got up in the middle of the night to give them money receive them a day early. I doubt the Applecare support people and Genius people aren't trained by that point. Although, I suppose that would just encourage more people to do the pre-order instead of filling the stores on launch day.

Interesting, my card hasn't been charged yet?

My card was charged for the AppleCare as soon as my order was being processed. The tax on the phone (had to do "Next") was charged when it went to "Preparing for shipment." (I'm actually happy to see a charge on my card since that gives me hope it's on its way.)

I ordered my 6+ through AT&T and got my email. Exactly what does "preparing to ship" mean. My ship date is 10/31 to 11/11. So How can it be prepared to ship????

I think that may depend on the country. In the US credit cards are usually not charged until ready to ship. I think debit cards in the US are charged immediately though.

My credit card is showing the pending charge - and it has since sometime early Friday morning. However, the charge has not actually appeared on my account as "charged".
