It's not only for packages containing iPhone. All packages seems like. I have a Mac Mini en-route as well, and the tracking info has been stuck for the past 2 days.. 🙁
Got a tip for us?

anyone in chicagoland receive their iphone 4 today?
I have the Apple store email saying that I'll be receiving it today. When I checked order status today, it has remained "At dest sort facility" since this morning.
I did have an estimated 10:30am delivery message for today, however, since about 1.5hrs ago, they removed that line from the tracking site.
WTF.... I feel like a 4yr old waiting for Christmas to arrive....

Yep... my tracking was goofed as well. It says it still hasn't been delivered. However to my surprise and joy it arrived promptly around 10:30am this morning. Thanks Steve!

Isn't it a bit strange how people are obsessed over the iPhone? It will get to its destination soon enough.
If you call FedEx they are capable of finding out more info then the webiste. Tracking number last showed it leaving Memphis almost a day ago but they told me right away that it landed and was in VA. She then called the local FedEx hub to see the exact status of my package which it is in a truck for delivery. My guess is that depending on which FedEx rep you talk to determines if they give you a B/S response or are actually helpful.
My Fed Ex tracking said it was still in Memphis this AM.
Yet at 10:25 my phone arrived here in New Hampshire. I'd say there's an update delay...
The phone activated quickly, and without a glitch. I guess I beat the rush.🙂

Activation
took maybe 30 sec - restoring from backup now.
Feels quite different: more heft and I like that it's more narrow, looks like it costs twice as much as my 3G - the screen: wow.

mine said it flew in to knoxville tn last night and hasn't changed... then just 20 min ago fedex just came to the house and delivered it and i live in columbia sc
Mine said it was "At dest sort facility" and got stuck there, but it somehow got delivered at 9:30 this morning. Woohoo!
I got mine just now, FedEx still had it about 3 hours away, they were an hour and a half ahead of the cut off though! I am a happy man 🙂

Got the Apple email.
My online tracking says Departed Oakland yesterday 1:20 PM
Nothing since.
Thinking it's on the truck.

Received Today
I just received my new iPhone 4 in Dallas, TX at 12:15 pm.
I ordered online with apple on the 15th at 9:30 pm central time.
Waiting for the iPhone was fun, like Christmas. Instead of watching the Google Santa Tracker on Christmas eve, I've been watching the FedEx tracker. I bet the FedEx people think we are nuts.

Android Fanboy Mocks iPhone-4 Release
<sarcasm>
Hah -- Nothing is going right for iPhone-4. I told you all it would be a
major failure. Not even close to EVO which has the supercool night-light
feature with that nice separation of screen from plastic casing (so long
as the battery holds up).
This iPhone is going to be as big a flop as the iPad (or rather iPod-Mega
-- get it? like "iPod Nano", but instead its "Mega").
If FedEx, AT&T and Apple would run their servers on Android then I bet
they would not go down because they can multitask and handle all those
concurrent orders and shipment tracking updates.
I bet you'll never see FedEx have load problems with order tracking with
any Android release because Google knows how to release a phone properly.
You simply do not advertise it anywhere but on the web and keep it out of
those brick-and-mortar stores so nobody can touch it before buying. Then
the sales trickle in at a reasonable and sensible pace. You just wait -- there
will be at least 1 million Nexus-One sales before Nexus-Two hits the market.
This is why Apple is so lame. They can't even get AT&T and FedEx to
increase their server capacity 10-fold before a release. Now I just can't
wait for their servers to fail again when everybody who ordered an iPhone-4
tries to return it within their 30-day window.
I'm sure that as soon as folks figure out it won't run Flash in a widget on the
home screen that they will hate it and switch to one of the revolutionary
Android phones running Froyo. I can't wait to upgrade my phone to one
that will actually support Froyo but I just got mine last month and it will
never support that version of Android -- so I am going to wait it out for
my contract to expire and then upgrade and then you will ALL be jealous.
Just wait and see.
</sarcasm>
Enjoy your new phones today or tomorrow or July 14th -- I am sadly waiting until iPhone-5 because while I can upgrade, my wife just missed the AT&T upgrade window and FaceTime would not be the same if I could not FaceTime call with her. I feel like an injured player sitting on the sidelines in the big game. Definitely jealous. 🙁

my tracking numbers for both phones said estimated arrival 6/24 by 3:00.
All it says is shipment information sent to FedEx doesnt give a location.
This sucks if I don't get it till tomorrow afternoon

Grrrrr!!!!
I guess I should have believed that email from Apple that assured me my phone would be delivered today. I never saw any evidence that FedEx's tracking site wasn't working and their site said my phone was still in a distribution center. The FedEx truck never makes it out here to the hinterlands this early in the day so it seemed safe to step out for a few minutes to grab some lunch. Naturally, just as I was returning I saw the FedEx truck leaving. I literally missed him by 30 seconds!
It seems Apple has a better handle on FedEx's shipping schedule that FedEx does. In fact, it seems Apple is the only one in all this who has their head screwed on straight.

I am in westchester county, NY, and my phone just came! The fed ex tracking said it was still in memphis and scheduled to be delivered tomorrow, so if yours says that, there is still hope
