I'm glad shipping dates are starting to back up... would be MUCH happier if mine would! Still projecting 10/5
atleast you have a projection
i have noneEarly shipment from VZW?
Has anyone who placed an order through Verizon received information about an earlier delivery? I placed my order 9/15 (for white 16gb) and received an ETA for 10/5. As of today, my card hasn't been hit and we're still looking at 10/5 ETA. Just curious as to whether there is a glimmer of hope at getting mine before a week and a half from now....

Ordered a black 32gb for AT&T through Apple.com on 9/14 at 5:00 ET.
Just got an email this morning stating an October 2nd delivery date, but UPS is showing an October 1st arrival. Definitely wouldn't mind if it came a bit sooner
Now that I finally got my date bump-up, I hope everyone else waiting on theirs to get it soon!

Never saw this status before: In Transit after departing Anchorage. In transit to where I wanna know!
Also states Rescheduled Delivery Oct 3 but don't recall that ever changing once it left China?
But what's my hurry...my provider won't have nano sims till at least Sep 28 when they officially launch the iPhone 5 And not sure I'm competent enough to carve down my micro sim!

Same here on the 1 day early. UPS is showing by end of day Monday, not Tuesday....
Man this sucks and is so not cool. First, phone was stuck at zhengzou china for 2 days. It made it to Korea on the third days and now it's been sitting there for the past 2 days.i shipped on te 23rd. How does ups intent to keep their 3-5 business day delivery like this? On top of that as I had mentioned in previous posts, it doesn't show the delivery date...no clue what's happening
I'm sure this was discussed previously in this thread or another thread but it's interesting that some shipments are being sent Worldwide Expedited and Worldwide Express.
Mine left ZhengZhou, China on 9/25 in the am (local time). It's in KY right now but according to Worldwide Express description, shipments from Asia are delivered within 1 to 2 business days. With that said, mind doesn't show a delivery date and I have had my phone sit in KY for a day or two in the past. Hopefully it gets here tomorrow!

I preordered 2 iPhone 5's on 9/16 around 3:30 ET. I've checked multiple times a day,and nothing has changed. It still says processing. How much longer do i have to wait? I thought apple,was getting more iPhone's and faster then what they thought?
Well, I ordered mine on 14 Sep 9:00BST (UK) and despite getting an email confirming delivery 21 Sep, two days later I got another email with a new delivery date: Oct 3-9. Since then nothing has moved, no updates at all...still says processing!
ordered mine 17th as had no money to get it on the friday
I got all excited yesterday though as my order had been moved from 09th-15th to 3rd-8th but when I looked this morning found it had been put back again. Looks like another 2 weeks for me at the moment
(in UK btw)

Looks like mine rode into Korea on the same horse. Although, yours seems to have departed, mine is still sitting in Korea. Looks like the horse to Canada came up lame!
I pre-ordered on the phone and had estimated shipping date for Oct 5th. I walked in an AT&T store on the 21st and picked up a phone. My pre-ordered phone shipped before I could cancel it and received it today. Should I return the AT&T phone I had for the last few days or the new one. Any inputs?
Mine is on the same plane out of Korea.... Interesting how this get's routed. Why Korea for UPS, and Hong Kong for Fedex?
I assuming UPS is doing logistics for Apple, and that it is a BULK ship from China to Korea, where it is then allocated/individually labeled before heading to Alaska? Or is it that US Carriers do not have landing privileges in China, and need a local carrier to move the shipment to closet port?
WOW, 10 days earlier than expected
I placed my order at 1:30am PST with original shipping date to be two weeks out from order. Original ETA for delivery was Oct. 5th. Then received the note that it had shipped last Saturday updated delivery time went to Sept 27th so I was really surprised to see it arrive yesterday very slick new unit and yes folks it could get scratched but it's a phone as long as it works and I'm able to do accomplish the tasks at hand, it's all good. I'm the one that could drop it, put it in a coat with my keys or any thing of the like.
Thanks
for another nice upgrade from my iphone 4, I'll be looking forward to another new adventure in iphone land in a few years
also still major loving my updated ipad so I'm good for awhile on new toys !!!

Mine is on the same flight which, btw, is UPS (airline code 5X) 61. It is a 747-400 freighter and is scheduled to land in Louisville around 12:30 am 9/27.
UPS tracking shows delivery of 10/1 (Monday) but I am confident it will show up before.
Mine is a day behind yours. Let me know f you get it today... hope that I might see it before the weekend...

Let us hope, as mine is was on the same plane...
Out for delivery right now. Usually UPS shows up a little after lunch but you never know. Will update when it arrives.
