Destination sort facility

Mine says departed from Oakland heading to So Cal. That was at 3 pm on the 22nd. Still no update. Simple tracking shows it arrived at LAX ramp at 11 pm. But no update at that. I'm not sure what to think if it will arrive today or not. 🙁
 
both my phones show eta's of today (one before 10:30 one before 3) and neither have been updated since about 3 this morning. One of them (from AT&T) has a status update saying it departed dallas at 3:41, that plane landed in chicago around 5:30 so I can only assume it is still on track. According to FedEx - the 10:30 phone is at the dest sort facility still

We have to remember that there are several hundred thousand iphones being shipped today that it a lot of packages to introduce to an already crowed delivery system. Basically, it would make sense for the tracking to be off by several hours.

My eta has nt changed on either phone since they shipped so I am reasonably sure I will them both sometime today just like I think everyone with that date in the system will also see delivery as well.

You posted that you wanted to to pick up a package from a sort facility. Fed Ex's is required to make an attempt for a delivery. Asking them to make an exception would be asking them to break their protocols.

Actually calling the Fed Ex sort facility the morning while they are trying to get the trucks loaded is a bit indicative of someone who needs to calm down.

It's coming...very possibly a day early which no one would have expected. Worst case, it comes on the official launch day.

Silly me, I've gone and fed the trolls!

Also, I never called the sort facility. Posting a question on a forum != calling the facility.
 
well i called fedex and spoke to a lady named "ria". she stated that apple doesnt want them delivered till tomorrow and i will NOT be getting it today. she said its "in a container" and there is no way id get it today 🙁 i stated that some people are getting them but she said i will not be. its arrived at destination sort facility, which is a 2 hour drive from me and it arrived there at 1048 pm last night 🙁

That really sucks 🙁 Did you get the email about early delivery? If it makes you feel any better, I'm pretty sure I'm in the same boat.

FedEx still shows it being ~ 30 miles from my house, however the last entry on Simple Tracking shows that it left that facility over 4 hours ago and FedEx hasn't updated:

Simple Tracking: 6/23/2010 4:14:00 AM FRANKLIN, MA, US Left FedEx Ramp

FedEx: Jun 23, 2010 12:13 AM
At dest sort facility
FRANKLIN, MA

PackageTrackr: FRANKLIN, MA, USA
Wednesday, June 23, 2010 12:13 AM
AT DEST SORT FACILITY

I think FedEx tracking is just lagging today and all of our phones are already on delivery trucks, stop hyperventilating.

Aww...our phones have parted their separate ways. Mine left Franklin at 4:34. 🙁

yeah man i am pretty bummed 🙁 but yes i did also receive the 23rd email from apple. i dont know how she knew it was from apple or whatever but she did say they are in a container and will be held there. simple tracking and fedex.com both show they are at that dest facility 2 hours away from me but when i enter my tracking info on 800 go fedex or whatever it states its on its way to a facility in my zip code.. but i am set on receiving it tomorrow now 🙁

This is precisely what I predicted would happen yesterday in the AT&T status thread and was shouted down by everyone. I gave in with the reports of people getting their devices yesterday and went ahead and stayed home today. I am going to be pissed if I was right and let the masses influence me.
 
Relax!

Relax, people!!! Mine still shows at destination sort facility in Fort Lauderdale and FEDEX JUST RANG MY DOORBELL!!! MY IPHONE 4 IS HERE!!!!!!! 😀
 
This may help:

I recently received the iPad camera kit (shipped from China) and the Fedex delivery history had it leaving Memphis, TN at the same time my iPhone shows leaving Memphis. It arrived the same day it left Memphis and I live in Maryland. So, maybe the status isn't current because of the shipping volume.
 
According to the FedEx site:

Jun 23, 2010 5:24 AM At dest sort facility DULLES, VA

But simpletracking.com shows (as of about 15 minutes ago):

6/23/2010 5:50:00 AM DULLES, VA, US Left FedEx Ramp

This is somewhat reassuring because most packages sent to my area (Arlington, VA), pass through Alexandria, VA before being placed on trucks, which typically roll by 8 or 9 AM.

yay!

It was the same thing with my iPad last week. Came a day early, and only ever said 'arrived at sort facility' and was delivered.
 
Mine still says Jun 23, 2010 12:13 AMAt dest sort facilityFRANKLIN, MA.

I called Fed Ex this morning and she told me I was like the 20th person to call about this. She told me that I will not be getting it today. It's not due to be delivered till tomorrow by 4:30. She told me they are holding them back till tomorrow. This is in MA.

Check simpletracking.com to see if yours left Franklin. Mine did at 5am. I hope she isn't right 😡
 
Rather amusing (not) how Apple says one thing and FedEx another although I'm assuming that the reps answering the calls don't know sh** from apple butter because no communication was likely sent to them.

I think it's more likely -- like every other Apple release -- that they did NOT break release date and that everyone will get theirs tomorrow sans a few screw ups that we saw yesterday.

Apple doesn't break release dates. Apple also doesn't send out emails rife with spelling and punctuation errors.
 
My wife told me that the regular fedex deliver van passed already and she ask if there is a package for us and sadly to say NO. 🙁 . Does this mean I will not have it today. wawawa, im sad....
