Mine hasn't changed yet either, I bet all AT&T orders before Saturday will be here Friday or next Monday.
Just another data point for the worriers:
Ordered 64GB black @ 5am est on the 14th. Still @ back order. I've read of more than a few people who ordered 64GB black after me go to "0" back order. So fulfillment isn't FIFO by time even though all orders placed before 9am pst will be delivered on 21st.
Stop fretting already and just enjoy MNF! (Dirty Birds!)

Just a feeling, AT&T has no idea how many phones are sold vs their stock and all remember there are different capacities that "sold out" at the same time according to AT&T and we know that's not true.
I haven't gotten this, just the first 2 emails. Meant to reply about the css.
Ordered mine about 2:30pm ET on 9/14, I knew I was too late to get it for 9/21 so I was fine with the 14-21 day wait. Been checking the status on 3 different sites every five minutes like everyone else, so I was pissed when my order date changed to 9/16 not 9/14. I called the 888 number someone posted in here pages ago and got reps who didn't know anything (not surprised-AT&T keeps them in the dark). They kept trying to get me a supervisor but everyone was busy and they kept trying to get me to just hang up. Finally they transferred me to the premiere escalation center (??) and spoke with someone who gave me actual info. Told them i know I have to wait weeks but I shouldn't be pushed back with the 9/16 orders when it was placed two days earlier. They said my phone was slated to be delivered on 10/4 but they would try to put a request in to get it by the last week of September instead of first week of October. Also gave me a courtesy credit on my account. At least I found out it wasn't actually pushed back any further than the 14-21 day range.
This is unrelated but it seems a little weird how they're shipping them. They're doing once a week shipments based on the times the orders were placed? Sounds like they're slowly leaking them to keep everyone hyped, rather than them being "sold out". It just doesn't seem like the stocks were diminished in these perfect time frames, they are just rewarding/punishing us based on how much we wanted them aka how long it took us to cave in to finally sit down and order.
Andddd despite all this I'm still holding out hope for all of us that they're giving us the worst case scenario info now and we'll alll have our phones in the next week or so. We really are all insane

Monday Night Football is about to come on guys. I say take a break. Drink a beer or two, and relax. Nothing is going to change from here till tonight. I will come back here if anything changes for me. But i am still shooting for Wed at the earliest to learn about my item being shipped.
yeah but at this point we're backordered. our phones don't exist.
4s ordered 10/7...shipped 10/12
ordered 10/8... shipped 10/27
Wouldn't surprise me if they're handling inventory/shipping by region.
And props for FIFO.
LIST!
That doesn't actually answer the question, the question is how can 3 be ordered all on the same date and have different order dates? Sometimes you just gotta read.

My brain hurts. (I was looking at the backorder info, and misread the dates part
)Also, go suck on a Jar Jar Binks goat!

no.I have gotten my CSS and the money is pending in my account but on the AT&T site it still says processing. I ordered around 4:50am est on 9/14. So I am expecting it to be here on Friday. It was also on the Premier site.
