30+ hours "preparing for shipment". People who ordered phones 5+ hours after me on the 14th had their phone ship 48 hours ago.

I don't know how they figure it. But it probably ends up only making a difference of one day. Why some orders got preferential treatment is a mystery to me. Meanwhile, mine too is a 64 gig version and it's still sitting in China..Hasn't moved at all. :(

I assume that is 4:05 am....I ordered mine 730 pm est time and mine is moving....odd yours hasn't shipped....apple can also be delayed on their shipped info
 
Anyone here still have processing order for an October 3-9 delivery?? I preordered about an hour after it went online.

yes, 4:05 AM EST

Yeah, no idea what is going on. Hopefully Apple is just behind on shipping info
 
Got email this morning that my iPhone 5, which had previously been marked for delivery on Oct. 5th, would be delivered on Sept. 28th. Yea!!
 
I reserved at 4:00 am, mine still says prepping for shipping for oct 5... Why is it that people reserve after me, have shipped phones.
 
OK, spent about 31 hours in 'preparing to ship' before I got the 'shipped' email. Email shipping confirmation came last night at 11:11. Tracking shows left ZhengZhou then, but no updates since that entry. Delivers 9/28.
 
I ordered mine on release day 10:15am uk time, was due for 01/10, then Yesterday two emails from apple and its been shipped and will now be delivered tomorrow, is a black 16gig, contract free. Hope it turns up tomorrow scratch free...
 
My Oct 3 delivery date has been delayed to Oct 9. White 16GB unlocked. "Preparing for shipment". Ordered 5am EST, two hours after the preorder started.
 
AT&T black 16 GB

Though I guess it's kind of good because a store near me got word of receiving more on Monday.
