Face it folks - most of these aren't even manufactured yet / let alone on a plane. Our original estimates from Apple or Carrier are close to correct. Apple knew they had zero manufactured by launch and led us on.

You'll get your phone near original estimated ship date and likely not before. This isn't like the last 2 years in any way. Epic fail, Apple!!

They had to play it safe. Imagine quoting earlier ship dates and it fell through. They would definitely get some feed back on here, without any question.

Not necessarily true. As long as my phone gets here before 27th (which in all likeliness it will), they've beaten their estimate. People in November might be getting theirs in the first or second week of October, if not earlier. As long as there isn't any stock of JB 7+ headed to stores, us preorder holders have the inside track. Just saying.:)
 
I'm on the west coast in Los Angeles. I'm still in PFS since Friday around 11 AM Pacific time my status has not changed yet I ordered a ATT 128 gig jet black on ATT next from the Apple Store app So I suspect since others that are changing appear to be on East Coast time maybe they'll catch up to the West Coast soon keep you posted
 
My shipping info just appeared on UPS. Apple's shipped email said new delivery date would be Sept 22, but now UPS site says Sept 21 between 12:15pm and 4:15pm. I like how specific they are with the phone is still in China.

Ordered from Apple
AT&T JB+ 128
Confirmation email at 12:09
Original delivery 9/26-10/3
