Early iPhone 4S Deliveries from Verizon Reach the U.S.

What's weird is that the UPS tracking site advises the delivery is running 'on time' for delivery by close of business on Friday.. I cant' believe they're letting them stagnate in Louisville.. What for? Wouldn't it make sense to ship them out and get them out of the way?

I would imagine apple told UPS not to del before Friday so it will stay at a major hub until Thursday,move to local stations Thursday night for Friday

delivery.:D

do you think that ups can deliver all iphones in one day?

Anyone else....

Receive their iPhone? I'm guessing the systems haven't updated. There is no way the ups in Louisville is sitting on all the iPhones.. Usually when the updates stop you can sometimes expect the shipment in a day or two which would put us at thurs/fri. I find it hard to believe only ONE person has received their 4s...

I feel like all 'Louisville' ones will get their phones Thursday. :)

Mine was reported at Hong Kong and I probably get it on Friday.

Good luck!
 
Please re-read my post on page 6 of this thread. A few more phones may slip thru the cracks but these ARE being held in Louisville and 99.9% of them will not be delivered until Friday.

This is not UPS's first rodeo and definitely not Apples first either.

They told you when you ordered it would be there Friday. They are controlling the release til then, just like they have done in years past. UPS is not 'hiding' the status from you and have really sent it to your city. It's sitting in Louisville until Thursday when it will be shipped by air to your nearest UPS airport where it will hit another hub then be to your house Friday.

No smoke and mirrors.

Ya I didn't say they were hiding the tracking. I deal with ups a lot and this happens where it won't update again until after I receive the package. Like what happened when I received the 4.

Not to poo on your first post, but why would UPS have a facility dedicated to only phones? I'm pretty sure they don't have a million dollar facility that is only used to house cell phones.
 
Well it turns out he's telling the truth. My iPhone is not gonna magically appear on my door because UPS just updated my status. My iPhone just had an import scan at Kentucky about half hour ago. So yeah it looks like they'll be delivered tomorrow.
 
Yeah my UPS status updated that it's in Kentucky and will be delivered by the end of tomorrow.

Yeah, same here. Scanned in Kentucky and on time for Friday. Hoping for today, but I doubt it, haha.

I think they will deliver to the local UPS locations today and will start to deliver tomorrow morning.

But still good luck! :)

I am expecting seeing some other deliveries today.

After getting next to no information from att premiere order status all week, I get an email last night with a tracking number. The tracking number didn't work at first, but later that night it stated that it was already in the US. it's now in Texas, so people who aren't sure about their order, there's still hope.

I don't think their systems are being updated and people could get their orders unexpectedly. This website really helped me out, as it seemed that it is the only one that was updated for me. Search for your orders using the mobile number that is being upgraded and zip code to look it up.

I can't wait!

Not happy at all

Went to a local Verizon store last Friday to pre-order two iPhone 4Ses, got the order confirmation and was told they would be delivered tomorrow (10/14). After not getting any kind of shipping confirmation, I spent an hour on hold with Verizon this morning only to be told that the pre-orders were sold out and they had pushed back my delivery date two weeks to Friday 10/28 without any kind of notification. Seriously pissed about this.
 
UPS? What happened to FedEx

I got my iPhone 4 a day early last year from FedEx through Apple. This year I have an expected delivery for friday from UPS through Apple. Did Apple change carriers? I've always gotten everything via FedEx from Apple, the UPS tracking # caught me off gaurd.
 
Surprised there is no other updates here?

It looks like nobody gets their phones before Oct 14th. Even this Verizon one looks suspicious for me. They may get from Verizon directly etc.?

Please send your updated guys!

The last update for me was that it left Louisville, Kentucky at 1pm and en route to Ohio for delivery by the end of tomorrow. Really excited to get the 4S! I had the iPhone 4 on AT&T but am switching to Sprint because the coverage is better in my area and I liked the unlimited data option. Also I wanted a white iPhone and when I got the 4 the black was the only one out so now I got the white one :D. I sold my iPhone 4 last Saturday and bought a crappy $15 AT&T Go Phone and boy do I miss my iPhone!!!!!
