Not sure how I got mine so fast. Ordered through a local AT&T store on Friday 9/27 and it arrived today 9/30. The color is Silver.
 
9/20 12:14am order -- 64gb, ATT, Space Grey through Apple Online -- still processing for Oct 7 - 10 delivery. I'm starting to hate the sight of the word processing! =)
 
Delivery Tomorrow

Got my confirmation email 4 minutes after the phones went on sale online and was immediately put into the Oct 7-11 batch. 64 Gold. Changed from Processing to Shipped on the 27th, with expected delivery by end of day tomorrow (so says UPS). However, the original Apple email says delivery on the 3rd.

I'll take UPS's delivery date. :D

Mine is exactly the same, but I am skeptical that UPS can land the plane in Anchorage, clear customs, make it to Louisville and then on to Florida by tomorrow morning in time to get on a delivery truck. I guess we will see.
 
anyone?

anyone has a
iPhone 5s Gold, 16GB, Tmobile/contract-free, From apple.com shipped ???
i bought it within 5mins after launch.
Still processing....

They actually clear customs in Louisville. If all goes well, they will arrive at Louisville around 1 AM tomorrow morning, then be shipped out to the various UPS hubs around 3 or 4 AM and be on the trucks for delivery later in the morning tomorrow (unless you are on the West coast).
 
This morning it the delivery day of October 8th. Just a little while ago it changed the delivery day to this Friday. So it looks like the delivery will be earlier than originally thought, which is great.

That's interesting! I guess from previous launches, I always assumed that they cleared customs in Alaska, since that's where they tended to hold stock of iPhones waiting for launch day. I certainly hope you are right! :)

Got a T-Mobile contract free but in space gray but still processing. I think a lot of the contract free ones are still processing :(

I ordered a contract free 64GB Silver and mine shipped.

My contract-free 32GB Space Grey has shipped as well.

I think I had a delivery date around the time of the origin scan, but I could be mistaken. Mine is 2 days a head of yours, however it was a weekend, so you will probably get yours Friday, but maybe even Thursday.

So update: UPS is now saying it will be delivered on Wed 10/2! Woohoo! So my 32gb gold AT&T phone (ordered at 3:06am EST) will be here in two days. It still says it's sitting in Zhengzhou, so not sure how it can get here in two days, but I'll take it! :)

When did it say you were supposed to get it originally? Mine is also sitting in Zhengzhou but shows a delivery on Friday the 4th.
 
My tmobile 32gb gold shipping status just changed from delivery Friday to by end of day Thursday. They are coming!

Whoa another person with a delivery date change! That makes me excited. I hope mine changes from Friday to Wednesday or Thursday now lol.
