I've about given up all hope for receiving it tomorrow since it still says preparing for shipment. With any luck it will be shipped tomorrow and we will have it by Monday, but I'm not even holding my breath for that anymore.
apparently that's what started happening according to people in other threads, everyone's phones in our slot are getting slowly scanned for the initial ship in China to be delivered on Monday.

That's still ok! I'll take Monday or Tuesday over 2-3 more weeks!

Lucky duck! Please let us know if you receive a delivery date. AND I MEAN ASAP! :p
 
My order details page now shows "shipped" and Apple has provided the tracking number. By Apple still says sept 26-28 delivery. UPS tracking says unknown date.still nothing in support profile.
 
Black 7+ 256gb with ship date of September 23-27th, still says processing. Nothing in my support profile. Nothing on UPS (and I have the my UPS choice set up from last year so it notify me if I have a package on its way).

Credit card charged $101 from Apple last night.
It's happening!!!!!
 
For those of you getting shipping notifications / dates, what time did you receive your pre-order confirmation email?
 
got a shipping confirmation notice from Apple! Tracking says it will be delivered on Monday! Woohoo!!!
 
do the phones require a signature when delivered? i keep reading things where they do and some sound like you don't?
 
Following yesterday's pattern, I should get a shipment notice in a couple of hours since that was the lag time for me when folks first started getting the status changes in this group.
