AT&T iPhone 4S Pre-Order Status Thread

Guys! I ordered on October 7th 16GB white and still nothing!! I'm order number 99. Also, I just sent a really long email to the guy that set everything up for me and he replied with "Sorry for the confusion, but its 14-21 BUSINESS days." WHAT! Who else was told this? This means my phone won't come in until November 4th!!
Order #56, a 32 GB black, was also shipped today. That was the last one I had on my list that showed "0 backordered" so all of those have now shipped.
2 orders from 10/7 are left, both 32 GB white. 2 orders from 10/8 have shipped, both 32 GB black. 5 orders from 10/8 are left, and 6 orders from 10/10 before mine are left. So I'm at the halfway mark, 13 4S orders before me shipped, 13 4S orders before me are left. 4 phones shipped today (3 16 GB black, 1 32 GB black), I'm OK with that rate as long as it that stays consistent for the next few days... but I doubt it. If it did, I'd be seeing a shipping notice by Monday (assuming no Saturday shipping). But again, I'm not holding my breath.
Still just 3 16 GB black phones left before mine.

That's because you're checking your order status through your AT&T online account. If you put your order number & zip code in here:
https://www.wireless.att.com/order_...sp?vMethod=ordernum&vNumber=265&ZipCode=75063
You'll see your order status like everyone else is posting
Ordered on 10/09 just shipped today on 10/25. I recieved two emails from AT&T reinterating that they were happy I was a customer and that my order was still confirmed before it was officially shipped.
It's for overnight, 3pm tomorrow on the 26th.

Did you order through AT&T or Premiere? If AT&T, can I have your zip and order number to show AT&T?

My phone will never ship.
Why aren't they following FIFO? It's just wrong!
Agreed - they appear to be utilizing RIRO (random in, random out)

Where can I find this "order number"?
My receipt has an order id of 235 but no "order number".
Thanks Trek. That was it. And it now looks like everyone else and says backordered 1.
I tried apple dot com to reserve a unit but after 9 minutes of frozen websites, only the 32 and 64 gb versions were available in black for At&t. Bummer. I'll try again tomorrow.
Finally
Was shipped today! I ordered Oct 7 at 2pm(est) at ATT store. Finally posted a tracking number this morning, and will receive it this thursday. I will never preorder with ATT again, I'm better off going to wait in line on launch day!

I am happy for you, since I also ordered on the 12th. However, it's not good that people ordering this late are getting their phones before people who ordered on the 7th. I have no idea what the hell is going on at AT&T.
I'm happy for you and all but, that's such Bull***!!!! I pre-order on the 7th and I get jack squat. People pre order way after the fact and get their phones? wtf!!!
I ordered a black 32GB on 10/8 in the morning and I have been sitting off of backorder status for almost 48 hours now with NO shipping info.
This whole business days thing is bogus. I think some managers are telling their reps to say this. When my rep said that I said, "That's ********. Who measures business days in multiples of 7?" She went to look up on the computer her reference for this information (which directly contradicts the email AT&T sent out saying "xx days") and couldn't find it. She then told me it was 14-21 days, but days from the 14th, not the 7th when I ordered. I spoke with her manager who assured me it was 14-21 days (including weekends) from the order date. Unfortunately, the AT&T employee had told me 6-14 days, but probably 6 or 7. It has been 18 days so far... Finally off backorder (64GB white and 16GB black; Ordered in-store around 4pm PST, order is showing up in AT&T's system as being placed at 8pm PST 10/7/11)
----------
White 64GB (exact order details above) shipped for 10/27 delivery!
Black 16GB not yet shipped, but no longer on backorder!
OMG!
Backordered just switched to 0!
Ordered online from AT&T on 10/8.
I know this isn't good news for all those 10/7 faithful but I guess things are actually moving.Status just changed 4 mins ago.Maybe because so many have canceled things are continuing to move.
16G black.

Funny (not) that you ordered after nearly all of us and WE'RE over reacting?
You obviously DON'T "understand our frustrations".
Peace out someplace else.
Is this your first launch? It's not mine, I've played this game before and been on both ends now.
But I will go in peace now and leave you to enjoy your frustrations.
Oh and to be clear, I will not "peace out".
