So I went to UPS and typed in my order number (with the W) but without the last 2 digits and it came up with this... is this right? says its shipping to WA which is not where I am at all and also says the product is "World Ease"

Mine says the same about "World Ease" and weight...not sure about the destination
 
Store or pre order

KPOM said:
A store will be faster, but will involve waiting in lines. 9/21 will likely be the worst, but if previous years are any indication, the first 2-3 weeks will still see relatively long waits for the iPhone in stores. See if Apple does a reservation system like last year. They didn't on launch day 2011 and they haven't planned one for 2012, but depending on how crazy things get (or not), they might put one into place.

Of course, we can always hope that Apple has flooded the stores with iPhones the same way they did with iPads in March. Pre-orders sold out quickly, but stores were loaded with stock and so lots of people bought them in store and then cancelled their delayed pre-orders.

Thanks ! So do you think if I pre order it will take two to three weeks from the 21st to arrive?
 
Has anyone in the UK got a tracking number yet or is it only america? I ordered 8:01 AM GMT time, and its preparing for shipment !

Thanks guys !
 
Just checked and my 64gb Verizon iPhone 5 was switched status wise from "Processing" to "Preparing for Shipment"

2:19am central time pre-order. delivery 9/21

kinda angry...all these people getting preparing for shipment and I'm still processing :eek::eek::eek:. Anyone else out there with a first 30 min pre-order still sitting at processing like me?

Don't worry. This happens every time. There is no rhyme or reason to how they ship or post tracking numbers, processing etc. You will get yours on Friday just like everyone else always does.

One of my iPhones is still stuck at the processing stage, although it shows a 9/21 delivery. I had to reauthorize the billing information the morning after I ordered it.

Should I call Apple about it?

Finally updated to 'Preparing for Shipment'! (64GB Black iPhone ordered around 12:13AM PST)

World ease is just a ups service that allows for easier customers clearing
 
My black verizon 64gb is still processing, maybe 150 more checks will make it prepare for shipping :p

Those of you getting Verizon 64gb Black, is it shipping from China or TN?

Quick question, on the Apple support page will it just show up to my list of products automatically or is there some step I need to take to get my serial?

It will show up automatically once your device is prepared for shipment under the same Apple ID it was bought using when purchased from store.apple.com or the Apple Store iOS app. If you bought from a carrier, you'll have to wait til you get the device and manually register it yourself.
 
For those of you having trouble tracking, there are 6 tracking reference numbers in my UPS shipment (The 4th one is my billing/iPhone phone number and the 6th one is my order number, not sure what the other 4 numbers are):

Black 64GB ATT ordered at 3:09 AM EST on 9/14

substituted "#" for numbers and "*" for letters in reference numbers below
