Are you sure that isn't just a phone you don't have anymore? Mine still shows an old 3GS that I had in the list of devices as well as an iPhone 4s that I exchanged due to a screen issue.
Got a tip for us?

Well I bought my phone an hour after the preorder and got the dreaded "ships in 2 weeks" which translates to it arriving Oct 2nd. Anyone else in this boat? I feel like it will get here before Oct 2nd but maybe that is just wishful thinking.
Oddly enough my dad's phone, which is being shipped to my address too, is coming from TN. o.o
Your right, there is no way of knowing it is my iPhone 5. However, I know that I currently only have my iPhone 4 until the iPhone 5 arrives on Friday. It doesn't show anything anyway. There won't be any way to find it's location when it's not on.
EDIT: by using the iOS Find my iPhone app I was able to determine the second iPhone that is showing up is an iPhone 4. Very odd...

My phone has finally joined all of yours in Louisville! It took two tries leaving Nashville but its finally there.
Same here
Same here, I ordered mine at 5am and I have the "ships in 2 weeks" as well
I've read here and there that they "pushed" back orders in "fear" of not having enough so I was hopeful. But now that there are 2M+ sales I am hoping that we get ours by Oct 2 at the very latest!!! Im sure if they had ours ready the site would change. Lets see what happens on the 21st.

It sure is taking its sweet time leaving Louisville!! Guess it will depart tonight. So funny, Apple.com still says "Preparing for Shipment" I guess with 2 million pre-orders, things are a mess
I guess with 2 million pre-orders, things are a messYES!! It is only 12:21 right now! I managed to finish my book, which killed an hour. Now I'm dealing with fussy kids, which makes time drag even slower. COME ON FRIDAY!!
Mine departed Anchorage, AK 12:58 AM. It's been that way for over 7 hours. Side note, I forgot you have to sign for it... Guess I'm not leaving home Friday.
Guess I'm not leaving home Friday.Just as the old pre-orders went, once you get a shipment notification from Apple, they provide you with a form if you want to pre-sign
Sister..
LOL. Seriously though, I figured it would be in Bakersfield by now. They used next day shipping, so shouldn't it be at the UPS hub in Bakersfield by now? If not, what's the point in paying for "NEXT DAY" shipping?
Ha! Friday will be the worst day of them all. After you see 'On Vehicle for Delivery' sitting and waiting for the delivery is always the worst.
Hoping we can, cause I have a good 4 hour window that no one will be present to receive the package!
I know, but the problem is, mine still shows "Preparing for shipment" on the Apple site, which doesn't have a pre-sign option.
I tracked it through UPS and it's been shipped.
Just give it a day or two, everyone will probably get the email Tomorrow or Thursday...
update they used a different contact number. mines is in Louisville, KY, United States. wrong coast people it is supposed to be in Cali. then it is atleast closer to me.
