Stop worrying about your AT&T/Fedex orders!
Last go 'round status updates were non-existent for most who ordered through AT&T,
I never received a shipped email, didn't get a tracking number until overnight before delivery day, and by the time I checked the Fedex tracking website the delivery "arrow" was already showing "out for delivery" and shipped 6 days prior.
I had to chase the dumb Fedex driver down the street to get my phone -- she was having "trouble with numbers" -- but my iP4 arrived just fine.
UPS does a better job of updating status on iPhone pre-orders than Fedex, but in the end the phone will come on time.

Oh yeah Kentucky is Bourbon lol. I think I need some just about now.
Go with Pappy Van Winkle, Woodford Reserve, or Blanton's. You won't regret it. If my phone doesn't ship soon, I may head over to Woodford Co and dive into a barrel.
i have another question I wanted to ask for my aunt. she order her iPhone 4S friday about 10am EST and she didn't check her email the next day to accept the T&C and it went through on Sunday. Now will she be able to get hers friday or later cause she didn't accept the T&C quick enough?
she works at UPS and its hard for to make calls to check on it she home late from work

Cant imagine it would effect it, they have yet to ship out and when they do im sure there going by order #, and her order # would be the same.
Yes!! All of my orders now say "0" for back ordered, so this is definitely a step in the right direction.
Ah yeah -- I've seen your name a few times but at 62 pages it's hard to remember who said what where. So, I guess, sorry for the redundancy.=)
How did you find your tracking # again? You just used your phone # as a reference #? What format? 2125551212?
I ordered by phone Friday around 9:30 AM PST. When I didn't get the T and C by email, I called ATT. They said they were sending an email link to the website so I could see the T and C there. That email never came either.
I called and asked them to use a different email just in case that was the problem (it was not in the spam folder). Finally I got the T and C. Then it was wrong, with the wrong plan, different from what I ordered on the phone.
Called again. Found out that the computer bounced my order to the standard plan because I was a special case (I had the original iphone, then the 3gs, then the 4 for 29 days, then back to the original). A rep fixed this for me but said I would have to talk to a rep to activate the phone. Then I realized it had the billing address (not all of it, they left off the street name) as my shipping address (not what I told the order guy).
Another call to ATT. After a lot of waiting, they said that wasn't really the shipping address, in their system, they have the correct shipping address. And that it has already shipped, priority, so I should get it in two days.
They gave me an address - wireless.att.com/order-status but it isn't working. When I went through the menu, got a message that I couldn't see my order, maybe it was too early, etc.
I figure I'll get it Friday like everyone else. I'll just be happy to have one that works.

I'll definitely have to give those a try! I agree, where are the shipment notices already?!?! I have a feeling we will see them in the next 10-12 hours. I'm not psychic though.
This thread is for AT&T orders...we all know Apple orders are showing up on UPS
Oh sorry sorry, i thought the At&t ment for people that ordered at&t phones :O, sorry about that!
I'm sure hoping my order shows some change at some point tomorrow. I'm actually leaving for a week on Thursday afternoon. So, outside of some miracle scenario where I get my phone Thursday morning, it won't really matter when my phone gets here. For some reason it is still driving me nuts, though.
It's driving us all nuts, obviously -- and whatever might be said about it being just a thing or that there's nothing to be done but wait, it's still emotionally charged... must... have... widget.
