Ha! Try being me, I had a coupon to get one on launch day and had to give it up due to "preparing to ship" garbage.
Got a tip for us?

Your phone was scanned about 30 min before mine so it must be on the same flight! 4 more hrs till they are in Alaska!

Mine was scanned right around this time but no movement yet from China.

I pre ordered a black sprint 16gb on apple.com at around 6am pacific on the 14th. My original delivery date was oct 5. Like many others my orders went from processing to preparing for shipment at around 9pm the night before launch. I was very upset and called apple, they told me that my iPhone will ship out over the weekend. They were right. My order shipped on the 22nd and within two days is already in the us. Ups won't give me a more accurate arrival date does anyone know how long it should take to get from GA TO CALIFORNIA? Thanks and good luck everyone. Stay positive!

Mine departed from Hapeville, GA this morning at 7AM. Good news for me since I live in Massachusetts. Hopefully it will be here by Wednesday, 2 days earlier than expected!
It is possible that you could have it tomorrow, if it gets to Cali by late tonight or very early at night. If not tomorrow, it will most likely be Wednesday.
It is possible that you could have it tomorrow, if it gets to MO by late tonight or very early at night. If not tomorrow, it will most likely be Wednesday. I live in Oklahoma, so I am hoping the package gets to OKC tonight and I should have it by morning. We shall see. UPS still hasnt updated tracking... A flight from GA to Louisville is only 45 minutes tops, so I am thinking that the packages have probably already left Louisville and on the way to us! Lets hope this is the case. Either that or they are probably clearing customs in Louisville.

Since the plane already left GA, you could possibly get it tomorrow. That is what we are all hoping for. It is not far of a reach either considering if it gets to your local UPS hub tonight or early tomorrow morning....
Did anyone order with a October 19th delivery date? I'm keeping hope alive that it may be delivered sooner than that.
That would be sweet!! Even though Wednesday would be better for me considering I'll be at work tomorrow night and won't be available to sign for it....and who knows whether or not UPS will accept the pre-sign form. Either way, I can't wait haha
I live in LA and my iPhone has been in Kentucky since yesterday and today at 11 AM it had an Import Scan, do you think it'll fly today to LA and be delivered tomorrow?
I would say probably, yes. As long as it leaves here within the next few hours...
many of them won't, and i assume it might come earlier than your email from apple stated. that could be a reason on why no delivery date is on your tracking. at least my theory.
It is a possibility, depending on where you live. My package was on a 7AM flight out of Georgia to Lousiville, and that is like a 40 min flight, so i agree that they are already in Louisville by now. They most likely have already left too, but that is just a guess. If they have left, I think it may depend on whether they drive or fly the package the rest of the way... No way to really tell for sure until the UPS tracking updates..
