I was thinking the same thing because my phone is on that truck too. I found this by googling Hodgkins, In and ups..
There is a a UPS facility named Hodgkins INDIANA. The Ohio and Indiana Turnpikes allow triple trailers, Illinois doesn't. Therefore westbound UPS triples will drop the third trailer at the Hodgkins, INDIANA facility before driving to Hodgkins, ILLINOIS. Eastbound doubles out of Hodgkins, ILLINOIS can pickup a third trailer at Hodgkins, INDIANA for the trip across Indiana and Ohio. Obviously, UPS must run some shuttles between the 2 separate locations.
In other words, Hodgkins INDIANA is a name that was made up by UPS. It isn't the name of a community in Indiana. It probably would have bettter for them to have called it something like "John Doe Indiana".
Because I've been reading posts by people who said their status hasn't been being updated. Duh.
I was excited for the iPhone but now that I saw the LTE is turned on where I live today, I am crapping myself with exictement.
Departed Jamaica.. That means the phone is now officially on its way over the bridge to Staten Island for delivery by 1030
We still need to beat the UK thread.So, are we going to make it to 7,500 posts before these phones are all delivered tomorrow?
Quick, everyone post!
How do you know for sure those post were not planted on your screen by some agency just to confuse us?
