I have been following this thread since pre-orders and I made an account just to comment this! I ordered an AT?&T Jet Black 7 Plus about 10 minutes after the site was online. I was given the dates of 10/4 - 10/10 and received shipping information on the 19th saying my order has shipped. Like most of you, I have been stuck in Korea with the 8:01 arrival scan. UPS first gave me my shipping date on Wednesday, then Thursday, and now unavailable. Apple's shipping date is for tomorrow. I just finished chatting with Apple Support and they said it's an issue with UPS' tracking information and to expect my Phone tomorrow! Support actually said, "No, no When it comes to this information, UPS only has half of the information, where as to we at Apple have it all!"
Hope this is somewhat helpful to you guys and I hope we get our phones tomorrow!
Same story as you same outcome I'm hoping man
