...I don't see what's wrong here. I am not forcing anyone to give me money. It's just like Apple is not forcing anyone to buy its products.

Of course mytakeontech is not committing fraud or any other crime. You're doing nothing wrong per se, but, to the poster who had a problem, you are gloating about your fortune/luck to those that Apple did not deem worthy for day 1 release (sarcasm). You've got 2 phones, & other people got zero. The ethical thing was probably just the worst passive-aggressive thing he could throw at you (venting apple frustration indirectly onto you). But it's ok I understand, we all need our tech ASAP or somethings wrong.
 
This thread is about orders from Apple.com being shipped to those who pre-ordered, if you want direct help about the AT&T process then go into a properly titled thread (or use SEARCH!).

Yea because I was definitely the ONLY person who had a couple questions about his AT&T order on this post. Read the last 25 pages, bud, and see how many people asked about their AT&T orders. Chill.
 
Got my shipment notification today at 1:22 pm est. The email from apple says delivers by Jun 23, 2010 but the tracking from fedex says delivery is scheduled for Jun 24, 2010 by 4:30 pm. Either way, I'm excited!
 
Wow, this discussion is entertaining. I am close to calling people out on being a little ridiculous about the status of their orders, being on the magnitude of preposterously obsessive. But I won't, because I too have been an Apple person for a long time and I know that new product releases have always stirred up a lot of obsessive fans.

HOWEVER, c'mon people its a PHONE! :) I'm looking forward to the 24th like anyone else, and I've had the 3g for a while so I feel like I'm a little more ready for the upgrade than some of you who fanatically buy every new Apple gizmo out there! I mean really, is it necessary to list below every post you make, all the Apple products you have, making sure people know that you have the money to afford new iPads and new Macbooks and what generation iPhones and iPods you've had....sheesh! But I don't mean to rain on anyones parade I know we are all excited, I guess I'm just trying to stir the pot a little bit here. Anyway, I wish everyone luck with their new phones and DO NOT WORRY, if you want one you will get it sooner or later. It will COME, that is FedEx's and Apple's job, to get it to you after you pay them lots and lots of money. There is nothing they want more than to get the phone in your hands so you can continue sending them money.
 
Ordered 4:58pm PDT on the 15th with Apple.

No shipping notice either here....yet >;(

Maybe we're all the later shipping waves?

Haven't gotten the shipping notice either, come to think of it I'd think they'd ship them out based on location more then time. But I could be wrong.

I'm guilty of this, for sure. I've always been a Mac person, but I'm not just upgrading from a 3GS or a 3G, I've never owned an iPhone before. So I might be a little more excited than some other people... Sorry. :(
 
Will they ever ship mine?? :mad:

nevermind i see that your order was placed at 4:57 pm pst. Mine was placed at 4:46pm pst. Please let me know via twitter (I am macguy287 on twitter) when your order is shipped becuase mine should ship around the time yours is shipped. I appreciate it.
 
I'm pretty sure you can use a pre-signature since it has a link to the pre-sign page from your iPhone order - On Apple's site and from your Shipment Notification email. And on FedEx's website, under your tracking info, it says Indirect Signature Required, so you dont even personally need to be there. I would think if it was actually that exclusive, then it would need a Direct Signature. But i could be wrong.

Indirect signature means you a neighbor OR A NOTE like the presign note will be acceptable! I know this because I work for Fedex and been delivering Apple products for 13 years!

SO STEWIE86 don't be an idiot and argue with me please!

I think we are all a little guilty, and I agree, you should be excited. I think you'll love your new phone!
 
Our iPhones sit on this tiny Lantau island awaiting transport.

Anybody get beyond Lantau Island yet?

If I had to guess they'll be shipping on Monday for the US.

i am wondering the same. My FEDEX tracking info hasn't changed since I received it early this morning. You would think by now the shipment would have left Lantau Island and be on its way to Anchorage, AK.

Anyone have any info on when this status will change?

It is hard for me to sleep at night because I can't stop thinking of the iphone 4. I have watched all the apple videos and all the tech reviews/videos on it. I am officially obsessed with it but I dont care. So I am a total apple fanboy and I dont hide it. LOL

Ditto and welcome!

Thanks for proving his point! :p
 
Anyone get Shipment exception in China

Mine says missed 730pm cuttoff and shipment exeception in purple. Still shows delivery date of 24.
 
Thanks for proving his point! :p

That is the whole point though. It is not just a phone. It literally can change the way we interact with our fellow human beings. Anyone who says that it is just a phone doesnt understand. Maybe I have been hit with the Steve Jobs ora or something but I can honestly say that this is not just a phone. Wait until you get the iPhone 4 in your hands you will agree with me. LOL
 
Ditto and welcome!

Thank you I am glad to hear that someone else in this world is as excited as me for this phone. btw I will probably also be staying up all night on Wednesday night because I know that it will be hard to sleep that night for sure. LOL
