Apple says 23rd, FedEx says 24th...Which is it?

[kiet]

Anyone on the same boat as me? I was suppose to get it today by 3:00 PM, called Fedex, and they told me 1 of these 3 things plus its not coming till the 24th.

1. The plane was too full to add more packaging
2. Plane had mechanical problem
3. Storm at the Indiana HUB

My mother Hijacked my phone today...
sitting at home waiting for the fedex truck to come up our enormous hill. Then I get a picture text from her with the box in hand at her office! Kinda weirded me out as there was no info in the shipping for it to go there! But she said he stops there first and it saved me about 3-4 more hours of waiting!
Side note for anyone running to their computers to activate today...Make sure your bill is paid AT&T that is. Our monthly bill was late by 1 day and they wouldnt let me activate until its paid. Not a huge problem since we were paying it today anyway but just thought Id give you all a heads up!

This phone is truly beautiful! Engadget was not bull*****ting us when they talked about the overall build quality being amazing. The 3G feels like a cheap "knock off" iPhone to me now!

Oh and my fedex status still shows it sitting in Portland,OR so to all those out there waiting for todays delivery dont lose hope until like 5pm cuz mine is activated in hand when it has said Delivery by June 24th at 4pm all along.

I called Fedex to ask who requested the delivery to be held, and they said Apple specifically asked for the phone to be delivered on the 24th. The email they sent was automated garbage like I said all along. Fedex said some drivers are ignoring the hold request, which is why some phones are being delivered.

Sooooo. Anyone here who didn't get blessed with early shipping like 99% of the populations say yeaaaaa!

been tracking my refurbished macbook pro for the past few days. saw that it arrived in chicago (about 8 hours away) at 3 AM. then at 2 this afternoon it arrived in a city 20 minutes from my house, but I'm not supposed to get it until tomorrow. now I find that (at nearly 9 in the evening) it departed that location, 20 minutes from my house. honestly, where could it be headed? obviously not to my house, since it is an hour and a half later...and it's way too late for deliveries.
very curious.
