My status just got updated to Preparing for shipment! Really can't see it being here this week though.

Preparing for Shipment

iPhone 4S 32GB Black
Available: 1 - 2 Weeks
Delivers 21 Oct - 28 Oct
 
Mine still says "Processing items" after 7 days.

Ordered: 10/13
Ship 1 to 2 weeks, Delivers Oct 26 - Nov 2.
Carrier AT&T 16GB Black.

I ordered on the same date with AT&T and I'm listed as being back ordered. Guess I need to stop checking my status hourly now if Apple has delivery at 10/26-11/2, it may be later for AT&T.
 
I placed my order sometime in the evening on October 11th. I ordered 2 phones(1 black 16GB, 1 white 16GB). They both still say:

"Processing Items"
Ships: 1 - 2 weeks
Delivers: Oct 24 - Oct 31

When I first ordered there were holds on my credit card, but they aren't there anymore and I haven't been charged yet.

Carrier is AT&T


Both of mine changed to "Preparing For Shipment" sometime in the past hour

And the holds on my credit card re-appeared

Has it shipped yet...?
 
Ordered on the 8th, just got tracking information a couple hours ago. Expected to be here tomorrow by 3PM. Damnit.

Cool...! Delivers tomorrow...? That's fast man...! I ordered on the 8th too... So I guess I can expect my tracking info soon...

But just incase I do not get the tracking info today, will it straight go to monday...? Or will they be shipping them out over the weekend too...

Well they might pull a fast one on you and ship it before they actually tell you about it. Mine was picked up yesterday at Dalls/Ft.Worth and as I had said I didn't know about it until a couple hours ago. Also, you can still get it on Saturday. Sunday's a no-no, but if neither today or tomorrow, hopefully by Monday. I ordered mine just before 2PM. How about you?

Hmmm... Yea it could have already been shipped... I tried that UPS track by reference thingie... But doesn't show it there either...

And yea ofcourse they won't DELIVER Sunday... But was just curious as to incase it is not shipped from the warehouse will they ship it...

I ordered mine around 11.am on the 8th...

It has not shipped yet.

I am calling apple today. I pre-ordered for the sole reason to get the iPhone first. Now i read about people just walking into Apple/Futureshop/Best Buy etc and having no issues picking up a iPhone 4s. This was my first apple purchase and it has not been a good experience!

Edit #1 I just logged into apple.ca to check status and I noticed that my shipping method changed from "Expedited 2-3 Days" to "Standard Shipping". I am not a happy camper.

Edit #2 I just got off the phone with Apple. The CSR was very apologetic. He contacted UPS for me and they said my order is shipping either today or Monday. He also added a free car charger/Screen protector and bumper base to my order.

Man, they haven't even begun to fulfill orders in the US and now the pre-order is open to 22 more countries. Might take another month to get a 4S.

Hopefully it ships out soon... still backordered x.x

I saw that headline this morning and died a little on the inside.
 
Well hopefully it's first come first serve, so we still get ours first. But I'm just hoping that I get mine by the end of next week...
