Not yet, but there's plenty of time to get from Louisville to anywhere in the US by 10/10 -- I still think our phones will be on time. But we all will continue to obsessively hit the refresh button on the UPS page I'm sure...
Isn't "UPS Worldwide Expedited" the default method Apple is using?
In other words: Isn't "UPS Worldwide Express Saver" better than "UPS Worldwide Expedited"?

Interesting because mine is scheduled for 10/11 and it is on the flight headed to anchorage right now, so maybe I will get a day early? Mine was sent by "express saver" though.
Finally have my phone in my hands and really enjoying it. Will see you guys again about this time next year most likely!
My phone is in Louisville (about 3 hours away by truck). Looks like UPS has managed to exactly hit their 7-day ship estimate (big surprise). I already put in a request to hold the package at my local facility since I'll probably be at work when they try to deliver and it's on my way home anyway.
Likewise-- shipped 10/6 with no updates until this morning-- 11:10am Import scan in Louisville. Looks like mine was in the same batch. Were you in the 7-10 day group? I was one of the first in the "October" group.
Mine was exactly the same. Arrived in Zhengzhou and never departed... no scans until this morning with an arrival in Louisville. Probably the same story with yours, no?
I think I was one of the last people to get 7-10 days. Ordered sometime after lunch (I think) on launch day. When I checked an hour later it had slipped down to just "October." Can't wait for tomorrow...
Mine was exactly like that, but I just checked again and it magically showed up in Louisville today at 2PM and then had departed by 5PM. So it's reasonable that it could get to me by 10/10.
It looks like the problem is that there was never a Departure scan from Zhengzhou, so our phones have probably been in transit for several days without showing up in the tracking system.
I've been waiting since what seems like the beginning of time for my 64 gig silver unlocked 5S. It left Zengzou sp? went to Korea for four days and then back to Shanghai WTH UPS? before taking off for Alaska. AS I type this it is finally in Newark (My state of NJ) and I'm scheduled for tomorrow. I bet if I was in China or Japan I'd a had it already... Anyway going from my crappy 4S that sucks at staying connected to WiFi and Bluetooth to this will be really nice. I plan on grabbing an ATT sim and doing their $60 prepaid deal.

I remember working at UPS for a short time and standing at the top of the conveyer belt when the packages start flowing down like rapids. My job was to quickly find the label, figure out which side of the belt the appropriate truck was parked and scan it. Lets just say I missed more than a few along the way. I quit that job after a few weeks and just stopped showing up. I remember the manager calling me for days begging me to come back. Hell job

What $60 deal is this? I was gonna go with T-Mobile because they are the only ones that don't have a $20-25 "phone finance fee" built into their rates.
I am using the TMo $30/mo 100/unlim/5GB data plan on my nexus 4 and will just carry that over to the iPhone 5S.
