Sitting here in Limbo
Waiting for the tide turn.
Yeah, now, sitting here in Limbo,
So many things I've got to learn.
Meanwhile, they're putting up a resistance,
But I know that my faith will lead me on.

Sitting here in Limbo
Waiting for the dice to roll.
Yeah, now, sitting here in Limbo,
Still got some time to search my soul.
Meanwhile, they're putting up a resistance,
But I know that my faith will lead me on.

I don't know where life will take me,
But I know where I have been.
I don't know what life will show me,
But I know what I have seen.
Tried my hand at love and friendship,
That is past and gone.
And now it's time to move along.

Someone has too much time on their hands. :)
 
Both in my area still have them.I started checking at 8:55 and slowly availability has dwindled.There are 2 malls south of Ft Myers-1 in Estero and 1 in Naples.Is there another? Thanks.

I don't know about?

no those are the 2. coconut point and waterside
also 2 in tampa - but they dont have any.
better luck tomorrow.
 
NOTHING!!! Ordered in store 10/7 afternoon.... 16GB White~ My patient is decreasing.... i really want to FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF at&t

Keep the faith. I am sitting here looking at a black 16GB in a sealed box because I am still waiting for the wife's phone. The good news is that her white 16GB purchased first thing in the AM at a local west coast store has finally shipped. It came off backorder on Friday around 7:30 pm PST and I finally got the shipping email at 6:14 tonight for a Wednesday delivery. There is hope!

I'm finally off backorder status. I'm very impatiently waiting on a tracking number.
 
I was encouraged by all the order movement over the last few days. Just checked my store cumulative order status and there are about 90-100 order numbers before mine and phones from 10/07 still haven't shipped. Looks like it's going to be the full 21-28 day wait for me.

I'll spare everyone the spreadsheet list, but looks like my store breaks down to 65% 16gb, 25% 32gb, 10% 64gb. (80% are all black models)


[ordered 10/09 in store, 32gb]
 
I sure hope my iPhone gets here this week. I am going to a Foo Fighters concert in Sacramento and I want to test out the camera when I'm there. I doubt I will get it before the end of October though. I ordered on the 10th and my local At&t store has only shipped about 15 phones since the 14th :( Booooooo. Oh well.
 
for the people who got their backorder's changed from 1 to 0. How long did it take to get a shipping e-mail? or a tracking number?
 
First stage of movement

Two 16Gb blk went from backordrer 1 to backorder zero overnight. Ordered in AT&T store in Niskayuna, NY at around 6 p.m. Eastern time on October 7th. Delivery on/by Friday will mean AT&T kept their promise to deliver in approximately 14-21 days.

We shall see. Good luck to all of you.

So 2 of the 16 GB black were removed from backorder but not shipped. 1 of the 32 GB black shipped. All of the 10/7 orders have now seen some sort of "action", apart from the 32 GB whites.

Getting there, I guess. V...e...r...y... slowly...
 
LMAO, if u read my post a few pages back I cancelled my phone order and picked up my phone at the store. Today I received notice that my phone is ship for delivery tomorrow. I'm wondering if I can keep it and they will only charge me the upgrade fee. Anyone has this happen before? Any advice?

This did happen to me once with AT&T and they caught it a couple years ago, although it wasn't an iPhone it was still a smart phone I ended up getting sent two phones for some reason and they just double charged me the upgrade fee which was only about 99$ I think so my family kept both as a back up.

where Did you get this list?? I've pre ordered on the 9th and still on back order... i called A&TT twice and all i got was a 100 credit to my bill...
 
Ordered on 10/12 through premier... Just got FedEx shipping notice and should arrive by 10/26 3pm.
This definitely was NOT FIRST COME FIRST SERVE, as I know others who ordered before me are still backordered.
Wishing you the best of luck my friends!

And now I understand why some customers want compensation for the wait time. Congrats on you getting yours, but it's crazy that some customers who ordered on the 7th are still waiting.
 
That's the thing, it wouldn't be so bad if this stuff was actually being done first-come-first-served, as it was explained to us, and as it definitely should be. Instead of whatever the heck kind of "order" it actually is, because it obviously ain't first-come-first-served.

I'm not getting too upset with my wait, yet. I ordered in-store on 10/10 and I knew I was in for a wait. I'm OK with that, even though I'm generally an impatient person. I can see (sloooow) progress with the local orders. I'll give them til the 28 day window I was initially quoted passes (11/7), then I'll get upset.

On a side note, somewhat amusing that the similar Verizon and Sprint pre-order threads are only at page 99 and page 46 respectively. We're so much awesomer than them! :D
