One reliable way to know if your phone is shipping soon is the CANCEL button. If you can cancel your order via the web or through a CSR then it is probably not shipping soon.

If you cannot cancel via a CSR you probably will getting a tracking number soon.

NOTE: If you try cancel via your account online you will not know if it works unless you actually cancel the order. When I tried to cancel, because I really did want to cancel, the system refused to process my request.

So, if you do not want to cancel, but the button is available, better call customer service to see if you can. When I called I was on the phone for 45 minutes trying to cancel only to be told my order was locked in processing and could not be cancelled. The next morning I got a tracking number.

Hopefully they do another waive of orders.

I was attempting to just reserve a phone in the apple store, but online Texas isn't even an option :(

I'm sure they'll be back at it today! As mad as I am about their screwed up system that doesn't actually do first-in-first-out, and whoever is responsible for training the CSR's (they should have had a straight story), I'm sure the warehouse workers are working their butts off to get our phones out.
 
I wonder if the orders that we see come in are the planes that have just come in or are planes that landed the day(s) before? I guess we will find out today if orders start flying out this morning, because no planes have come in since yesterday evening.
Does anyone know how long after a plane comes in they process?

Are any landing today?

The problem with that is the tool we are using if for apple orders. For the initial weekend AT&T might have been getting some phones by those planes but since they are using fedex as well could be coming in that way. Some people have a date of end of October so maybe even boats lol

I am still holding out hope we will all get them soon just now we are in more of the dark.

Ps there is one potential iPhone plane today does not land in Alaska for 7 hours

Oh yeah, I am only taking the flights with a grain of salt. Through the weekend everytime there was a batch of landings there was a batch of tracking so I was just curious to see if it continued into this week or not.

I guess it will be another week or so. Hoping there is another wave of tracking numbers today..But I'm not feeling too lucky

I agree it will be interesting.
Crossing fingers our phones already made it and there is not enough people so slowly this week they tracking numbers come out
Or
The majority of the phones were other colors and other companies

I know I keep harping on this but AT&T is really the only company that gets super mad about the grandfathered plan
Yes I know that others not on it do not have their phones as well just proves the holes AT&T have in the process.
Went to Verzion right now and if I ordered the same phone today the dates they give are the same as I have today
:(

I sure do hope so, I've seen orders after mine for the 64 GB RGD + get info as well.
