I think you are the first proof of some shipments coming direct from the US as I've been mentioning. Woo hoo. Too bad Apple couldn't convince FedEx delivery was a "priority" matter. Waiting until 3pm. Ug. (Yes, I know it says delivery "by" 3pm, but hey, ain't it Murphy's Law that is when it will come, to the millisecond.)
 
my phone is less than an hour away comming to my local ATT store !!!

it left pittsburg which is 2 hours away at 5:47 am

whoooooooooooooo

i have a good friend at ATT maybe he will give it to me early
 
I ordered on the 8th and it's still showing "prepared for shipment" :confused:

Same here.. I hope it ships soon!

Becoming increasingly discouraged by the lack of movement. But I suppose it's still possible that it will ship today and arrive tomorrow.

Still prepared here as well. The only thing I'm concerned about is the fact that my status on apple.com says ships on 6/19, delivers by 6/22. Again, I had ordered just after the keynote on the 8th, received the first email from Apple stating there was a technical glitch and the order would arrive on 6/19. I have not received the second (3rd, 4th, 5th for some) email that people are talking about that states there was an error with the carrier, but the order has shipped.

I figure if it does not ship tonight for tomorrow delivery, I at least have something to go back to Apple with to get compensated because they have been so adamant about pre-orders and a 6/19 delivery. :cool:
 
Transaction no longer pending...

I have been tailing this thread ever since people started getting their tracking numbers. It made me feel better to see that others also had 'Prepared for Shipment' as their status, especially PA folks... I ordered on 6/9 from Apple and have been in 'Prepared for Shipment' status since Sunday.

This morning I saw a post from someone feeling relieved that the money for one of the phones that he/she ordered has cleared. I took a look at my bank account and see that the transaction is no longer pending... Instead, it has been returned to my balance and the Apple.com transaction is nowhere to be found!

My status is still 'Prepared for Shipment'. Has anyone else had this happen?

I did have the hold on my credit card as well. This has since dropped off because the package hasn't shipped yet. Checked this morning and the money still hasn't cleared. Maybe Apple is waiting for ATT to give me back $200. :D
 
They have some very weird credit / debit card approval methods it seems... My card was charged $1 for a few days, then the full amount, then credited back... still prepared for shipment. I've had AMEX call me twice because of "unusual activity", they are probably driving the credit card companies insane.
 
Still no tracking number from my online AT&T. *sigh*

My last bastion of hope, getting the tracking number tomorrow and it overnighting to me. Here's to hoping.

Same here. It says it shipped using FDE (FedEx) but not tracking number available. Ugh!

They have authorized my card 3 times for $1.00 and once for the amount of the iPhone order. All have since been released and still no charge for the full amount.
 
So at this point is it odd for my status to be still be "prepared for shipment" or do i still have company in the same boat?
 
Contract with ATT expanded

Me too.

Also, my ATT account shows that my contract will expire on 6/14/2011. This means Apple went through the process of updating my ATT account with a new iPhone 3GS on 6/14/2009. But where is the tracking number?????
