I was pretty bummed out when I got Nov 21 - 28 delivery. Woke up the next day and adjusted my thinking.

Let's face it the thrill is going through the delivery cycle and that 1st day after receiving the phone. After a few days that goes away and we settle into having a phone that we really like. So who cares if it's Nov 3 or 3 weeks later. Only difference is I'll have that thrill period a few weeks after Nov 3rd.

Something to think about if your still upset about not getting Nov 3.

Also the fact that by the time we get ours the apps will be updated more to support the 10
 
Last year I was late ordering a matte black 7 Plus. Delivery was estimated at 2-3 weeks. I checked the reserve in store option everyday at 8 am and about a week in, I was able to reserve one at my local store. I picked it up and then cancelled my back order. There is hope, chances are if you are persistent you might just get one earlier.

My iPhone X case has changed from preparing for shipment to shipped. Not surprising though given that it’s estimated delivery is Nov 1.
 
In retrospect I'm kinda happy my delivery date is later in November. I'm still not 100% sold on the X, so the later date will allow some time to read reviews and see how most are feeling about it a couple weeks in. If they're underwhelming then I may just buy a 1-2 month old 8+ from an X buyer and save myself $700.

To be fair, us day 1 receivers also have 14 days to decide.

This is me everyday until I get my iPhone status to "Shipped"

Has anyone had their order bumped up in Canada? We have seen it for some in the US. I don't think anyone in Canada got a 10-17 delivery window though.

Nope. It seems our times jumped right from the 3 to the 20-27 window. I wish we would see a increase in the speed of delivery but I am not holding my breath

I had a similar experience when I ordered my black matte 7+. I was late in ordering and had a 4-6 week wait. I used the https://www.istocknow.com/ site to find an available iphone at one of the Ottawa Apple stores and reserved it. If memory serves me right I bought the phone less than a week after launch day. I checked the site first thing in the morning and right after lunch. The phone came available after lunch. So I guess that they receive stock in the stores at least twice a day.
There is hope yet.

Wow... some of these iUP stories are nuts. I saw on reddit someone claims they had a December date, and got moved to launch day. Getting away with murder.

Meanwhile we get punished for actually buying our phones lol. :(
 
Ah....another of these 11/3 bastards. ;)

Morning all!! Might see movement for the launch day folks today (provided Foxconn gets enough stock to the airport to justify a flight).
 
Morning all... I havent seen anything change...
Those of us with a date range in late November really shouldn't expect to get bumped up for at least a week. The stars could align and make it quicker (if we ordered less than say Des Moines, Iowa) but it's highly unlikely for us to see any changes to our status until after launch day. :(
[doublepost=1509356099][/doublepost]Americans are being charged too. That's a pretty good indication that the plane's being loaded (or has been loaded) - and will be taking off soon.

Keep an eye on your tracking for a departure scan guys. We should be able to determine which flight it is when that shows up.

Edit: This may prove useful for actually identifying a new tracking item:

(or....they're 12 hours ahead of us) :) (eastern time)

Good morning all. I ordered a case at the same time as my X and it is shipping today. The phone should be along soon I hope.
BTW since the phone case is shipping I tried looking it up on UPS.ca via Reference number method(my phone number or the first nine of Apple order number) that was suggested on the forum and it doesn't work.Anyone have any luck with this.

Happy Monday
