Mine too, you hear any news of a truck hijack... or crash?

They are probably sitting in a container in the Louisville parking lot waiting to be checked in.

After making a call to ups, she stated that the phone should be delivered today, the website just hasn't updated yet. I think she was talking out of her ass unfortunately.

Can't be delivered today. UPS has an agreement with Apple to not deliever and i Phones before 9/21.
 
Ummm... 8:00AM in let's say, London is 3:00AM on the East Coast of the US.

So, technically they will get it before.

First off if you are referring to Apple retail stores they open at 8 AM in the United States.

As for shipping they have barley begun to ship internationally.

Mine too! It looks like they forgot to scan it for departure lol Idk

They don't scan everywhere they go. Packages are in transit for long distances many times they don't get scanned. Just check your delivery date if it says 9/21 then you WILL get it by 9/21.

You were the one that mentioned Apple retail stores, the OP didn't. I only responded to your post.
 
The scan times are local times in each location. Alaska and Louisville have different time zones. :p

Yup, but Louisville is AHEAD of Alaska, so if anything the times are even further off than than should be. The iPhone should LOSE time flying from Alaska to Louisville, not gain time.
 
iPhones in Addison, IL

You iPhone is most likely going to be merged into one package here if you ordered multiple iPhones. From here it will go to UPS Worldport in Louisville, KY. From there it will go to your states and eventually to you buy 9/21.

YOU WILL NOT GET YOUR IPHONE EARLIER THAN 9/21. UPS has an agreement with Apple to not deliver any iPhone packages before 9/21.

Some of you were complaining because in the past your iPhone tracking said that it would deliver before 3 PM but all time constraints have been removed you will get your iPhone on 9/21 before the day ends. UPS has more than one million Apple iPhones just be patient.

If you Apple confirmation page says it will deliver on 9/21 but you can't track it don't will IT WILL come on 9/21.

There is no point in sitting in front of the screen all day just check your tracking number every night and you will have the phone by 9/21 as long as your Apple confirmation page says so.

This. This. This. People here need to get a life.

Agreed.
I think people are just anxious to get their iPhone. My concern was if mine made it to Louisville. What really gets me is the people that think UPS should deliver it before 9/21.
 
I'm getting gradually more concerned. Nothing on my credit card yet, order is still "processing items," nothing on my support profile, and I can't find anything by reference number on UPS.

I ordered the 32GB black/slate Verizon model at about 3:45AM Eastern.

I ordered at 3:39AM ET and my card has been used. I just do not have any detail except 'Processing Items' and '9/21'.

I am sure we will have today or tomorrow. Others also wait on the UPS facilities and not moving. But of course knowing that it is somewhere on the way should be a good feeling. :)
 
This. This. This. People here need to get a life.

I think just by hanging out here, reading , and responding puts you into this general classification of people. I and most likely the others on this forum like to be excited about our new iphone and share this emotion with other.
 
FINALLY was able to find my package on UPS, using billing number!
I remembered my cousin's apple ID was signed onto my MBP when I ordered and decided to try her phone number and BAM!
Shipped from Addison, IL
Currently in Louisville.
:D
 
UPS uses a computer algorithm to optimize its deliveries and reduce cost, so does FEDEX. They found its more efficient to do it this way. Believe me that they have every penny accounted for. One reason other shippers are out of the business, anyone recall Airborne... .

Computer algorithms need tweaking from time to time ;)
 
Mine is in Louisville, Kentucky. It was in Nashville, Tennessee yesterday. You'd think it would have made it further than that. :\

If the order status page (and UPS) says your phone will be delivered on 9/21, it will be delivered on 9/21.

All this flight-tracking business is frivolous.
 
White AT&T 64GB ordered in Apple Store phone app at 12:11

No mention of Louisville yet. Apple store still shows Preparing for Shipment
 
So what's worse, the person on the internet tracking their phone obsessively, or the people taking time out of their busy day to tell the others that they are wasting their time? Live and let live.

I think they are getting all the phones together in Louisville for a photo-op.

Anyone else have a phone still in Chek Lap Kok? My wife's 32 is still showing as arrived there yesterday with no more activity. Just like my wife. She hasn't even gotten the thing and she already lost it...
