Ordered via Apple.com on 6/15 at ~10:30am PST
Still says at destination sort facility
Didn't call FedEx ever.
DELIVERED on 6/23 to my work address in El Segundo, CA. I got the phone at 10am PST which means it got here an hour or so ago cuz it takes awhile for the mail department to make the rounds with new packages.
Some other positive info:
- It took less than 2 minutes to activate the phone via iTunes.
- Less than 15 minutes to get the text from AT&T saying I was on the network.
- I chose to 'Start as a new phone' instead of 'Restore from a Backup'
- I had changed my ship to address right after I had ordered. I know there was some concern about whether this would F*** things up or not, but mine got here just fine.
Although I had issues during the pre-order (like everyone else), this process has been the smoothest I've seen thereafter. The waiting was a little worse than usual because I had lost my iPhone 3G two weeks ago in Hong Kong and haven't had a phone since.
Best of luck to everyone!
