Looks like we need a separate thread for the black plus models now, too -- to separate the haves from the have nots, lol.
JB deserves its own thread, too. Just didn't want you guys to get jealous since matte black will probably be shipped earlier
didnt read all the posts but it looks like a lot tmobile customers are having similar issues as us.
So Apple is more at fault than the carriers themselves

Not sure, I have the regular gold plus 256 (not rose gold) and I don't have a tracking number at all. I don't think I've seen one yet for just the gold.
Don't know what the system is for shipping but I truly believe it has nothing to do with the order in which phones were preordered. It sucks but it's true. People are asking what time did you order, but I ordered at 11:30am CST and mine is already on the way whereas others that ordered in the middle of the night are still waiting. I have 2 friends that ordered in store 6 hours after I did and their 7Ps are already delivered to their local stores. Theirs shipped today. Mine shipped yesterday and just left Louisville. This is all too crazy!
Good thing for those who already have tracking info: I've received many packages through UPS without tracking being updated. It is very possible that you will get your phone tomorrow without seeing an update. Best of luck!

I ordered 2 silver + 128
I think maybe only one other person did as well.
but no tracking number yet, sigh.
Could be possible, every day thus far has had a tendency to dispatch tracking numbers for a sole color except for the few outliers of course.
In my opinion this whole preorder deal is stupidly wrong. Apple should have a timeframe before production for orders, then manufacture the phones and ship them at the same time so that everyone gets them at the same time.
Sorry, just venting because I haven't received any word on my shipment.
. And I'm pissed!!

. And I'm pissed!!The servers weren't actually down. What happened is that the database that displays existing customers' devices and which are available for upgrade broke. New customers were able to sign up and pre-order just fine. It's the existing customers that had to sit and wait until Sprint fixed things.
Jet Black and all the Plus models are completely sold out. No store stock at all. Apple made an announcement.
And if Apple doesnt have it, I doubt the carriers will have it (probably just a couple) really wished Apple stepped up their inventory level game this year.
I feel like we're all the Walkers in TWD lol
