Mine is in Memphis as well as of 1am. It says next day air, so conventional wisdom says tomorrow when something is shipped next day air, it comes in tomorrow. I doubt it though.
 
Actually, let's see what you really get. My situation was a little more complicated because my att history is like this -- original iphone, 3gs, 4 for 29 days, then back to original iPhone. So I had to talk to ATT on the phone, to a higher rep, to get them to enter the information into computer a certain way so it would accept my grandfathered data plan. My situation was communicated on the phone with the first selling rep, and he knew how my plan needed to be, but then the computer couldn't handle it, and so my confirmation email had it all wrong.

Normally, I order via computer, through Apple, and it goes smoothly.
I'll just be sooo happy to see that package on Friday.

Interesting! I'll be happy if I get a package at all on Friday, and interested to see if it's white or black. Another complicating factor with mine (and perhaps why I can't view my order status online or by phone) is that I had to change my address they had on file during the ordering process. So... being 1) over the phone 2) unsubsidized and 3) with a change of address, I'm quite worried that my order might not end up getting there on the 14th.

Wish it was like last year when I got it a day early, but no tracking info yet.
 
My UPS tracking number also shows up in the UPS tool...

Ordered 32G Black from AT&T 3:30 AM CST on the 7th...

UPS shows it in Memphis on the 13th at 1AM (and it isnt 1 AM in Memphis yet)... Need it to get to Dallas. I have "01" Next Day Air in my tracking number.

So assuming that will get it here Fri, was hoping for an early delivery on Thur.

with next day air, i'd say there is still a small chance of it being delivered tomorrow (UPS says their next day air service delivers around 10:30am) so we should know in less 12 hours whether we'll be asking our phones about the meaning of life tomorrow or friday
 
Fedex tracking still not functioning. However, I'll accept that since the warehouse location gives me a better chance to get it tomorrow than if my phone was in Memphis...
 
UPS tracking number is finally up and running as of 9pm PST... My phone is in Memphis TN

I'm looking closer at my tracking page and it says it was shipped using Next Day Air with typical delivery on the Next Business Day by 10:30am... Should I be reading that as tomorrow by 10:30am or Friday as planned??
 
Damn. Mine is coming through Fedex.
Anyways, good for you all UPS'ers.. :rolleyes:
:apple:

Even though I am a UPS'r and know where mine is now... I would rather be a Fedex'r and have my phone in FtW as I am in Dallas... might actually get it tomorrow.

Status

Here is my current history/order status:

Att.com 2 seperate orders Friday 10/7 4:30am- 4GS 16GB White with Premier order confirmation emails. Emails Tues night thanking me for orders also says items should arrive by 10/14 & tracking info email to follow. Emails Wed afternoon orders shipped with tracking info.

Order info from att.com updated Tues night both Shipped Fedex 10/10 with tracking #'s. Order info from Premier updated we'd afternoon shipped with same Fedex tracking info.

Fedex no tracking info & no reference using phone # either.

CC temp auth no longer listed with no charge on CC yet.

If they really shipped on 10/10 Fedex like my att.com order info says then I do believe I will get them a day early again like last year :)
 
woohoo my ATT tracking number is up and moving! Who here said midnight!?


Memphis, TN, United States 10/13/2011 1:00 A.M. AGENT PICKUP; IN TRANSIT TO UPS FACILITY
10/13/2011 1:00 A.M. Origin Scan
 
My UPS tracking number is showing results. The odd thing is it says it is in Memphis, TN as of 1am local time but it's only 11:20pm there now...

Look at the origin scan. It says 1 AM. Next business day will be the 14th.
 
Has anyone not gotten a shipping notice at all? No number, no nothing? How many others are in that boat?

I ordered at 9AM EST over the phone on Friday and haven't received any notice. I have a pending charge still (that has been on there since the 7th) and the order is listed as "in progress" according to ATT CSRs (I cannot view it online for some reason or via any other automated process).
 
My order just arrived at the last waypoint before the airport eight miles from my residence. The tracking status still shows Friday as the delivery date.

But that's exactly how it was last year. Then the next morning the date was updated to that day and the phone arrived at 9:40am. If history repeats itself there'll be an iP4S for me to sign for in the morning.

It'll will be good to get this over. I'm eager to focus on the next model. I'm so tired of the diminutive display after over a year with the spacious displays on my various Androids.

It high time for Apple to give the iPhone a fresh modern sized screen. I'd like nothing better.
 
I pre-ordered my 4S at nearly 8 PM Central on the Saturday the 8th and my phone now shows shipped :cool:

Nope, BS....prove it.

I don't see why one would make something like this up, nor do I see why you would be so skeptical of people here. Anyway, this is not my post above...but to "prove" it for you...

Yes ordered on 10/08, about 7pm.

Sorry yours isn't going so well.
 
I'm not quite sure where the local time is 1AM right now (9:25pm PST)....somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic? Either way, I got my UPS tracking info :)
 
Weird. It says 1am on the 13th, but it isn't even 1am on the east coast, much less in Memphis. I am not sure what that means. Mine says it is shipped next day air but does not give an expected delivery date. I assume it will come Friday, but I am hoping for the best and it gets delivered tomorrow.

There is also a possibility Apple put a hold on all these shipments that they should not be delivered till Friday. Otherwise, it should come tomorrow.

Sorry yours isn't going so well.

Good for you...gives me hope I ordered around 24hrs before you :)
 
Yes, I'm sorry some of us have a life and can't read the over 100 pages on this forum!

Finally got my shipping email from AT&T around an hour ago.

Tracking # still not in UPS' system.

Looking more and more like a Friday afternoon delivery for me.
 
Good for you...gives me hope I ordered around 24hrs before you :)

I hope yours comes before mine. You surely deserve it. I think I'm just lucky with the notification and really it may not come until next week. I'll survive if so. :)
 
I got the 1 AM Memphis deal too, UPS.

But mine says Next Day Air Saver, which is by 3 P.M. the next business day, not next day air like a lot of others seem to have.

Either way, since they are claiming it's 1 A.M., the next business day would be Friday. If it's on the plane now, it has to arrive at the local warehouse, be scanned in, loaded on the truck, etc...sounds like Friday to me.

EDIT: I see now that we have the option to change the shipping address, will this flag/delay anything or will they actually do it?
