Been trying to keep an eye on about when the UPS truck drives by my house each day as I just recently moved. I can't remember from past years, but does the iPhone delivery disrupt the UPS schedule enough to warrant a different delivery time?
 
Sorry, I meant the opposite: those of us who paid full price aren’t getting any order update 🙁
Which, is it just me, or does that seem counterintuitive? Like here’s $1200+ right from my hand to yours....we have to wait. Here let me pay you in little nuggets at a time....TADA MAGICALLY AVAILABLE

In my case, Greater LA area, it was causing about 1 to 2 hr later delivery than usual. That's why I switched to UPS CC delivery.
 
Hey Illutionz, I think you’re On this flight with the same departure time headed to Hartford. I haven’t received an update so I’m guessing I’m on the 3:55 or 5:24 SDF to BDL flights.

Aha!!!! Wonderful find kind sir. I wonder if my package will just be driven via truck to the local CC in RI or flown to PVD later tonight/tomorrow morning.

I feel like I'm learning a lot about the UPS routing through this whole ordeal LOL!
 
17 - 24 people. I ordered a T-Mobile 256 GB silver from Apple at 3:15 AM. Paid full price, not Apple iPhone upgrade program. Still no movement on my 17-24 dates.
I'm in the same situation. Got confirmation email at 3:13 AM. I'm feeling a little anxious.
 
Now that Apple has sent out "Shipped" statuses, anyone check their serial number using http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html/?

I just did and got a production week of 43 2017 (October). Crazy! Week 43 corresponds to October 23 – October 29. Right off the assembly line!

FYI: You can get your device serial number from viewing the invoice on Apple's website.
I did indeed, I got week 43, Model # MQAN2 and more interesting to me-the factory was Chengdu instead of Zhengzhou! I thought that was weird. They must’ve opened up production lines in Chengdu and maybe even Shenzhen to meet demand. It’s still 5-6 weeks shipping for orders now, but I think the analysts were overhyping the underproduction idea TBH.

I’m with you on this. It seems to me Apple is trying to avoid all the bad press they had last year with the iPhone 7/7+ when iUP users were at the end of the line.
