I've been trying to do the reservations but have come up empty so far. At this point I may just order through Apple and hope they start shipping them out faster soon.

I wouldn't bet on it. Are you like me and on an AT&T business account? If not, you should call around to other stores like your local Best Buys, RadioShacks, Targets, Wal-Mart, etc. I hear people are even having luck at Sam's Club. I agree that should not order through AT&T or Apple at this point. Call these retailers every day and try the Apple reservation system every night and soon enough you'll find one.
 
Ordered 32GB Black on 10/1

Ordered a 32GB Black on 10/1 through the AT&T site. Still on backorder. Was quoted 14-21 days.
 
Wow they're already on 24th order dates for black 16GB? I ordered on the 23rd but a white one so still waiting! I'm getting excited though! I'm getting sick and tired of my Samsung Galaxy I. It's complete crap!
 
Order 9/21

Hello,

I have been following this thread for a few weeks now. I thought its time I add my tid-bit.

I ordered White 16GB on the late evening of 9/20 on AT&T’s website, so it was considered as a 9/21 order. It didn’t get processed until 9/22. I was told it would ship between 10/11 and 10/22. I spoke to a rep last night and found out the shipping of my phone has been pushed back until 10/22 and 10/31:mad::mad::mad:. I don’t think it’s fair at all or even right! . I was never notified of this at all! AT&T originally told me between 10/11 and 10/22 so they should hold up to it!

Don't worry, AT&T reps don't know anything. I see some 9/21 white 16 got off backorder last night and today, so I think you should be next in line, maybe sometime this week
 
Ur right. ATT REPS are useless. :)


OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guys are right!!!! I just got off BO!!! OMG I am in shock!! I didn’t think this would ever happen!!! WOW!!! I am SOOO happy!!! HEHEHE hopefully it ships soon!!!! It still says 0 for shipped Qty though. My Outter Box has been sad for about a week with no phone to make it whole:D

No I just pray that it gets shipped by the weekend!!!

Was ur order processed on the 22th? 16GB WHT?:)
 
Verizon has 32GB in stock at certain stores in NYC. If i'm not off back order by Friday I will just switch carriers. I've been looking for a reason to jump off the AT&T ship. This may be it.
 
It sounded like they ship soon after they come off backorder. I really hope it doesn't take 10 days AFTER coming off backorder to ship. It's been long enough now!

WHAT?! I ordered on friday 9/21 but it didn't get processed till 9/22. Our Black 16G came today, but my white 16 G is still on backorder. What is this about another 9/22 being off bo??
