Apple is going to think they're under DDoS attack with the amount of times I've refreshed my order status page today. A piece of me dies every time I see the word "processing."

Funny you should mention that, I was wondering if they pull internal reports on how many times the order page was refreshed and see who the top refreshers are :)
 
I got my confirmation email at 2:07 Central time and got the 9/26-10/3 window. I am cautiously optimistic that I will have my phone on the 16th.
My annual experience is Apple meets the dates. I've never heard of any phones arriving 5 or ten days early.

If yours arrives on 9/26 I'd say that is great. Arriving on the 16th... Not a chance. Don't set yourself up for disappointment.

I received my 6+ about a week to 10 days early. I was scheduled for mid October and received it at the end of September. Early arrivals do happen.

You can't kill my hope until Friday afternoon man!
 
A weird shipment just showed up in my UPS My Choice list. It's from Harrisburg, PA where Apple has a big depot. I ordered, in one order:

128GB iPhone 7 Matte Black (for fiancée)
256GB iPhone 7 Plus Jet Black (for me)

and in a second:

Apple Watch Series 2, Space Black

My fiancée's iPhone already showed up in my Support Profile, and I already got the UPS tracking for it. So it looks like it's either my iPhone, or my Apple Watch. But neither are in my Support Profile, and the package is 3.0 lbs, so that sounds like a lot for either an Apple Watch or an iPhone.

Too heavy to be the phone...but also sounds too heavy to be the watch...is it possible they would bundle the 2? I can't remember how much my watch shipment was last year...
 
Keeping optimistic yet realistic, I say we should all see Jet Blacks at the end of September.

Apple would really impress me if I see some of you guys get them launch or or a majority of y'all early next week.

I don't think they would bundle the two since technically I purchased them in separate orders, under separate Apple IDs, using separate cards. Only commonality is shipping address between the two orders.

From what I've seen in the Apple Watch pre-order threads, nobody else has anything coming to them from Harrisburg, PA. All either from China to Kentucky, or originating from Kentucky.

Can you see reference numbers yet to matchup?

I live a little over an hour away from Harrisburg, IT BETTER BE THE JET BLACK!!
 
Since the issue with the jet black and "micro abrasions"has anyone found out how and if this will effect us next year when trading the phone in for the 7s/8?
 
I know I am not getting one on day one for sure... But Sep22 to 29th should have some movement... no tracking.. no update... first iPhone I don't have on day one :(
