update..called Apple and they gave me expedited shipping but I'm tempted to try and reserve one at 9:00...His windows phone crashed while updating to Mango last week and while trying to do a battery pull the phone started shutting on and off..He needs a Phone.
Got a tip for us?

Haha, thats funny! I do as well. I thinks our changed at the same time! We should have our phones on Friday or Monday!
I went to the corporate store I bought the GS2 from/returned the rep said because I bought the phone from there and returned it there but kept the service, that I "still" have a contract.
I managed to order a 32GB 4S for the subsidized price on the same line. The email says 14-21 days to ship. I just hope it gets to the store quicker. For some reason the rep couldn't get it shipped to my house.
When the 4 came out I had it shipped to my house last year, but it's whatever.
are anyone's black 64giggers coming off backorder? i only ordered a week ago so i expect to wait longer but its frustrating me that only the 16 and 32s seem to be moving along...
Nope to 64gb model...
I ordered a black 64GB phone almost two weeks ago; nothing yet. Oh well, I'm on travel for a while, so I hope it's sitting in my office when I return.

Pre-ordered from ATT.com on 10/7 - of course, like many others, did not get the iphone 4s as promised on launch date. To make matters worse, they wouldn't let me cancel (as many have experienced).
Weeks later, was finally able to call up an outsourced ATT help line that cancelled the order for me (10/23). Got a confirmation email of the cancellation, so I thought the whole ordeal was over (i had already went out and got my own unlocked 4s by then) - but then what happens? ATT SOMEHOW decides to ship it to me ANYWAY, and I got it on Halloween. I did not open it (as I already have an unlocked one)..and left it untouched. I tried to make a return at my local ATT store, as I did not want to be charged for return shipping (just in case, since it wasn't my fault they shipped it to me anyway!!!)... and they tell me I had to pay a RESTOCKING FEE of $35 on the UNOPENED 4s!!!!!!! RIDICULOUS.
I was planning to get a 2 year contract with ATT but after this whole ordeal.. which I might add, wasted ALOT of my gas ..phone bill.. and my mental well being... all this running around in circles.. I am so GLAD that I did not go thru with it. I have never been THIS disappointed with a company as I have with ATT.
I hope everyone else had better luck with your ATT iphone 4s orders!

What's the status on people with white 16gb. I ordered mine on the first and it's on backorder.
I ordered a 32GB black and a 64gb black on 10/25. The 32gb black shipped on 11/3 and I picked it up yesterday. The 64gb is still on backorder. Sigh.
Sweet! Ordered my 32GB Black 4S yesterday from the AT&T Corporate Store and just got an email saying it's shipped! It's currently in Fort Worth, Texas.
I must say dealing with corporate stores is a much better experience than using the lowlifes at the authorized dealers.

Apparently not. ALL the orders for the month of October in my store are off backorder/shipped except ONE. Its still on backorder. It really does suck for this person, because some people who ordering in November are getting their phones in a matter of days.
It is a 64GB that was ordered on October 19.
16GB White/Black
64GB White/Black
are taking the longest. The quickest is 32GB Black. If you order one of those, it will ship in a matter of two days from AT&T in-store or Premier.

Told you, bro! The same trend is happening. 32GB Black are shipping in 1 to 2 days.
Crazy, people who are willing to dish out a large amount of money for their "top end" iPhone shouldn't have to wait longer. At least not a lot longer.
You would think Apple would want to make all their customers happy, and ship to those spending more money.

Yep, sorry to hear that. 16GB White is the top seller. From the looks of it, they didn't produce a lot of 64GB. I don't think a lot of people are purchasing them and its taking longer to produce. Only two people got 64GB in-store for the month of October.
Back in the line ...
Got Black 16GB 4s on Oct 14 but now finally have made up my mind to get the White one instead.
Since I purchased through ATT on the 14th, I can't get exchange through Apple. So went to store this morning and placed an order for the White 16GB. The email said 14-21 days so lets see...

nfl46- i'm assuming you work at at&t then... is there really no way to cancel an order? my complication is that my eligibility got messed up so they had to override it when i ordered my 64gb... so even if i could cancel what would that do to my eligibility? would it revert to my old contract? or still keep me on my just renewed contract making me immediately eligible again?
i feel like i would have better luck at an apple store, but i HAD to order through at&t (corporate store) cause of my date...
on another note, the 64giggers seem to be moving fast on the apple.com thread
