Early iPhone 4S Shipment Notices, Delivery Still Likely on 14th

I think it is just the logistics of trying to send out 1 million iPhones for delivery in a few days time. It just can't all be done in a day and will be spread out over multiple days.
Well, I ordered mine on October 7th at 3:45am from Apple.ca. White 16GB 4S. I called them yesterday and they said that it hasn't left from China yet. Like what the hell is taking them so long?!
I may be even getting it Monday. Mine STILL saying Processing Items! This is ridiculous!

Mine is still "processing items" too. It's not just you.

FINALLY!!!! My iPhone ships!!! its 4pm and my status from processing has now changed to shipped! So I'm hoping I do get my iPhone tomorrow in the morning since Fedex always passes by my house really early!On another note I just noticed on the shipping date on which it was shipped. It shows that it had been shipped since yesterday?? 10/11/11 which is pretty weird. I guess they just forgot to update the status to shipped. Who knows...

iPhone 4S shipment
i ordered mine around 3am on the 7th from at&t and it still says processing.
some of you mentioned you got previous iPhones shipped earlier in the past, but was there anyone who received theirs late?

My black 64GB 4S was one of the first shipments as reported in this thread, leaving China the morning of 10/10, arriving in Alaska same day, then making it to Louisville, KY at 9:28 A.M. on 10/11. I was hopeful with the reports from last year to get this a day early. Here is it the evening of 10/12 and the phone is still sitting in Louisville with no activity. Don't think I'm going to see my iPhone early. And Thursday is my day off, too. Bummer.
It is better having a shipping info than nothing.

My iPhone is now marked as "preparing to ship" after sitting on "processing" since last Friday.
Hoping for a shipping number soon!

UPS Next Day Air Saver?
Does anyone know if you could pick it up at the post office rather than having to wait for them to send you the phone to your residential address which takes them another business day for them to ship? Reason I ask is because my iPhone is beign shipped Via UPS Next Day Air Saver.. I really want my iPhone today and not tomorrow at 3pm which is the time it is scheduled to be delivered by?
