AT&T - iPhone 3G on Backorder for 5-7 Days.

Need protection for your new iPhone

my friend just got his phone a few days ago and ordered a scratch resistant product from this link. So far he says it worth the money. :apple:

I hate to sound like I'm peddling ... but go to http://www.bestskinsever.com/
and save yourself 20 bucks for the same product.

I'm happy so far with mine. I still use a case for when its in my pocket, but I'm not at all worried about laying it down on a table or scratching up the back.
 
My black 16gb has moved from 140 to #4 in the queue... gosh I hope it doesn't ship today... I'm not sure what i'll do with all the free time i'll have not checking my status every 3 min

THANKS! Guess my friend will be pissed that he just spent 30 bucks when he could have spent 8:apple:
 
Backorder returned to 1 after almost 24 hours at 0. I knew it would happen, but it lasted so long that it teased me just a bit with the possibility that I would have the phone this weekend. No. 32 at my store.
 
Gahh! My flipped back to 1 after being at 0 all day. I hope it ships Friday so maybe I can have it for the weekend.
 
Yea, pretty much killed my enthusiasm for getting it tomorrow as well. I'm assuming that if they shipped it late tonight I still wouldn't have it until Saturday, right? And even if they did ship it do they deliver on Saturdays? This blows. I'm #4 right now and am waiting on a 16gb black. This is killing me. I ordered on the 15th.
 
My status was updated to shipped at ~8:30, and it actually shipped closer to 3:00. No email notification yet, but it is supposed to arrive before 3:00 tomorrow.

Yeah I'm pretty sure they deliver on Saturdays. Either in this post or the other one, some members mentioned getting phone calls on Saturday to come in. I think there may have been one or two on Sundays too.
 
How long does it take to ship?? overnight??
Has anyone got a charge on their card but no shipping yet??
This is gona piss me off if I get charged for something that has not been shipped!:mad:
Number 7 and still waiting *forever*
 
My phone still hasn't shipped yet, I'm hoping it shipped tonight and it'll update by morning, but we'll see.

Maybe I should go back to the store and talk to Jennifer (the pretty girl who placed my DF order). Tell her if she gives me the next 16gb black that comes in, then I'll give her the benefit of going on a date with a future naval aviator :p

It's an overnight shipping. And it depends on what model you ordered. White as you most likely already know is leaving the warehouse fast but all the models ship overnight to the stores. I got charged to my credit card before it shipped but I was okay with it. It doesn't mean it shipped though. I think that for some it will get them mad

Ill be pissed cause in the email AT&T sent me they said that the card would be charged when it shipped..They shouldnt say that then... :apple:
 
Why should you really care if there is a slight delay between billing and shipment? If the delay was several weeks or months, I could understand as that money could be put to more immediate and gratifying use. But for a couple days? I mean, you've already decided to spend the money, and so it's good as gone anyways. All your money is doing is sitting there, doing nothing, and looking pretty in your bank account. Who cares?
 
AT&T also told me this (LOL) But I was okay with them charging.

I didn't want to start anything. I always lose. :/

But I knew people would get mad.

If I had no money in the bank and they charged me for the phone and for going over, then I would be pissed :/
