Information I got is Louisville is a very large centralized hub at an airport so it seems this will be the distribution point to your local hub...
I am sure they are loading planes as we speak...

Yep, Arlington here. Mine came up on UPS on Saturday in China. It got to Alaska yesterday and should be in Lousiville today (not updated yet on UPS).

Well, now! We all have phones on the same plane. Or something like that.
🙂
My status at Apple hasn't been updated. Slackers 😉
UPS says my stuff left when everyone else's left just after midnight last night from AK.

Backing Up iPhone 4 and Prepping for Arrival
So in order to prep for Friday Morning, i'm doing the following.
Removing dead apps I never use any longer.
Backup of all my pictures using Image Capture for a second backup. Photo Library is like a life catalog at this point.
Backup to iCloud after above is complete.
Keep tracking the i5 no matter how messed up everyone says I am 🙂
What am I missing?

Me ~ Also someone else that posted here. Probably more people too. =)
I was worried I was the only one. xD

Did you try the phone number of the base phone on your account plan?
You need to use the base phone number.
Still nothing
That is my phone type, I ordered in the first 20 minutes and still nothing.

I preordered 4 of them. Yesterday I checked ups with the phone number and it showed 2 packages were shipped.
However order status from apple shows 3 are preparing for shipment , 1 was still stuck at processing step. I called Apple and realized there was a 2 per customer rule. And today I got a cancellation email for the one was stuck at processing.
According to apple the rest should ship although the 2 per customer rule.
Now I have 2 things I'm wondering.
Do you think I should trust the apple.com and apple rep and expect the 3rd one will be shipped or since the ups shows only 2 I should worry about the 3rd?
Also who should I complain about this because my order went thru on friday morning and if there is a rule it shouldn't allow me to buy anything after the second. Is there anything I can do? Because it's not my fault and it's too late to pre order and receive it on friday the 21st. I mean if I knew about this rule I could have someone else pay for it with a different address..
Any ideas?

Ha after reading these forums today it definitely is starting to look like all of our iPhones are gathering in KY maybe all joining up for one last iPhone party? 😉

I really wonder where they're keeping all the phones destined for Europe. Although our transport infrastructure seems to be somewhat more efficient than the American one (okay, that's to a huge extent due to area), shipments from Asia should have been on their way right now.
Anyway, my Nano-SIM has arrived today - was worried a lot more about that than the phone itself. 🙂

Then you will be happy to know yours will hop on a truck to Greensboro next. I'm in NC as well, so mine has G-boro, Raleigh, and then on from there.

Don't forget (I'm sure no one here will) to upgrade to iOS 6 tomorrow. iOS 5 iCloud backups won't work on an iPhone 5. That's always the most annoying thing if you have to get a replacement phone from a Genius. You first have to have the same version of iOS on both devices to be able to restore.
2 Shipments/1Phone on UPS.com?
Hey all..
So, when I look up my 64 GB Black AT&T iPhone on UPS.com, I'm seeing two identical shipments with the exact same order or shipping number. Is anyone else seeing this? What do you think I should do about this?
My phone is one of them that left Anchorage at 12:58..
The two shipments or items on the invoice has me perplexed.
