This is what I don't get. I ordered mine @ 6:30 am pacific time (9:30 am eastern). 6 Plus - Space Gray - 64 GB - tmobile and it's still processing. The only difference is the color, but I ordered it an hour earlier. 100,000 orders could have been processed between 6:30 and 7:40.... I would love to know how apple figures out the order for shipment. This is like the 4th post I've seen where someone ordered a similar or exact same model after me and shipped before me.
5 MINS LATER: never mind it literally just changed to preparing for shipment. Relieved!
You lucky dog you!
