Apple Preorder Status

This guys is LATE... Still says 10:30 delivery and it's out on the truck... I've got to leave in 20 mins....:mad::mad::mad::mad:
 
I've been following this thread for days (and reading these forums for years), but just decided to register now. My driver is late, too! My iPhone has showed as "Out for Delivery" since 2:58am from Uniondale, NY. Anyone else on Long Island showing the same?

My friend ordered at the same time as me from Verizon (3:05am on the 3rd) and she got hers yesterday. I got to play with it a bit last night, it's awesome!
 
Well its 11:10am and no sign of the ups guy. I bet he is hiding behind a tree waiting for me to leave, so that he can run up to the door and knock three times and leave a note stating I wasn't hope to sign for the package.
 
Full service at work, I don't believe my eyes haha. .52 mbps down, .79 mbps upload (upload is the exact same as at home, strange). That's infinitely better than AT&T ever gave me at work.
 
Ok, so whats the deal. I ran through the iTunes activation setup. It told me to disconnect and reconnect it to let it sync, which I'm doing now.

It then popped up "iPhone is not Activated Contact your carrier if this problem continues to occur." Do we have to do any *228 calls to finish?

That's strange. Once I disconnected and reconnected it activated within 30 seconds. I never had to call Verizon once.

What's even better is now I've got bars where I had "No Service" before. But if I try to use data, it tells me I have international roaming off.
 
Mine's still in Louisville =\. Anyone else in the same boat?

I read another topic about someone getting the wrong phone and it was meant for someone else so it won't activate. Make sure that didn't happen to you just in case.

I'm starting to think its Verizon's end. I've been trying to login to their website for a few minutes now. Finally just had it time out. Their servers appear to be swamped.

Edit: I finally got in. It definitely hasn't updated on their end. Going through activation on their website now to see if it will let me do it.

Edit 2: Actually, I think I'll just wait a bit longer.
 
ups just came.:mad: Delivered another package. Kid told me that he had it on his truck this morning and Security at the depot removed all the iphones off his truck.
 
Was delivered at home today at 10am, wife signed for it. :D Ordered in the first hour of pre-orders. I might go home at lunch to pick it up.

Removed them and put them in their trunk to sell on eBay (not that it'll work with a CDMA phone, but whatever).
just kidding...

Sorry to hear.

Edit: Mine is up and running. Can I get a RAmen!

If I were you I'd only activate via iTunes. I just have a feeling that doing it on Verizon's site might give you issues, whereas iTunes is set up for these activations.
 
It came at 11:30am and I ran out to greet the UPS driver. He said someone else here had one but wasn't home. What a shame! Activated and ready to go!
 
Still hasn't arrived here yet. Been out for delivery since 7:25am. I wished they had shipped it via FedEx. UPS service around here is subpar.
