well i just recieved my "its been shipped" email about an hour ago. Two differant sites say different dates of the shipment. Friday is good. Tomorrow would be GREAT!!!!
 
My "its been shipped" email says it could take up to 72 hours for the carrier to update tracking. Did you all get this as well?
 
I dont think there would be anything difference from newegg or ups.com ..

Ultimately, newegg would be calling API from UPS.com ! :apple:

I know what you mean as I am dev that works on many shipping modules (mostly Magento) and use the UPS API quite often. I have though been able to track the same number on both sites with sometimes different results. (eg: UPS will still be on billing information, and NewEgg will have an additional scan beyond that. I know it doesn't make sense from a technical standpoint, but I have seen it happen.
 
For the people expecting it tomorrow--remember--the 1 AM phones as of now are in transit to the facility/airport, not on the plane yet. Then factor in the reality that the phone probably isn't going to be shipped to the nearest airport, and then the potential transfer from the airport to the ups facility, and then finally on the truck, and I think you see that tomorrow is nary impossible for most people.

Since I'm in Minneapolis, I almost expect them to fly it to Chicago O'Hare, then Ground it from there.

Interesting.. ! Good to know :D
 
As I sit here and read page 131 of all us biting our nails and trying to countdown to the exact minute our UPS/Fedex tracking info will switch to shipped, I can't help but think the mass media has it all wrong. I'm guessing at some point tomorrow, we'll see some random kid in front of an Apple Store with a lawn chair and a case of RedBull's listed as a crazy Apple Fan... I think all of us would agree that the real fans pre-ordered their phone between 1-4am and then sat on message boards for a whole week until d-day!
