Everyone in the first batch is getting expedited UPS shipping.
You can check the posts in the 1-3 days thread.
Really? I got 1-3 days shipping. How can you tell it's expedited? Cuase I just opted for standard, I didn't see the option but I wouldn't have paid anyway.
I don't have a tracking number yet. Still preparing for shipment. Or is this the workaround with the order number?Check your UPS tracking number.
Preparing for shipment here
Sept 39 - oct 2=......
I ordered 2, 1 from Apple Store online and 1 thru the Apple Store app on ipad, AT&T 64gb Space Gray at 12:08 and 12:03 am 20th pacific time, and they pretty much instantly went into processing although the app was quicker and easier. Status so far unchanged. Last year one from Apple and one thru AT&T, Apple was smooth, AT&T no so much.
Update: Just noticed appx 6pm pacific 9-21-13 1st one thru Apple Store App just went to preparing for shipment. 2nd one still unchanged.
Update: 2nd one same about 1/2 hr later
My order has shipped via ups. It says UPS Saver? No delivery date is given either. I guess I'll know more tomorrow.
Received a shipment notification email from Apple at 10:31 PM Pacific indicating standard shipping delivery 9/27 to San Francisco.AT&T Gold 16 received Apple confirmation 12:01AM. Now showing shipped, but haven't gotten a shipping email. Tracking info shows UPS Saver and no estimated delivery date [yet].

Mine says the same thing. If you look at the tracking info of the phones that were shipped out earlier, you'll see that they were in transit to ZhengZhou, where ours already appear to be.I thought I was the only one, but I'm glad I'm not. What's up with this?
Called my local store and physically went in as well. How do they not know when they are receiving shipments of 5s's? Surely their 'inventory specialists' know?

track by reference and use your phone number (anyone you can think of -- order/billing/upgrade online)
Hopefully ours will start shipping out starting around 1am EST (Thats when tracking usually gets sent out)
Why do you expect them to know? Apple didn't make substantial quantities for the launch and you have to realize that the inventory that is being produced in china is being pulled to many countries, let alone, states and cities and individual apple stores. When you filter that all down, each store maybe gets a handful of phones every day.
12am shipped email. 9/26 delivery
ATT 64gb grey. Standard shipping ordered 3:01am
