how long after you guys received shipment confirmation did your tracking go live on fedex i've had shipment confirmation since about 730 will it take longer then an hour or so?
 
How many of you are going to call the AT&T store to see if you can pick yours up early once you see your phone arrived at the store?

I need to go to the DMV, so I might just stop by and lay on the sweet talk. I'm not afraid to show some skin. ;)
 
In Chicago, IL here. Ordered a 32GB White iPhone from Apple on the 14th and it still says "prepared" (although the order status does say delivered on the 19th...

I'm around Milwaukee with the same status (16GB White). Maybe they will probably come from the same shipment.
 
Still "prepared" for me too.

Oh the suspense!

I just got off the phone with Apple (only 18 minutes) and the women told me even though my dates says it will be delivered on the 22nd she said "that's nothing" and that it "will be shipped out today". So sometime today I should get a tracking number according to her, and I shouldn't worry cause it will be here tomorrow. Today mine finally comes out of the "prepared for shipment" status.

My i850 nextel phone is on its last charge!!!

Yes. It could take hours to get any usable info. FedEx has to pickup the package before you'll get a delivery time. Until that time you'll either get a message that no info is available yet, or "billing info rec'd," which is equally useless.
 
My delivery date STILL shows the 22nd and the order is STILL being prepared. I ordered my 32 GB Black G3 S at the conclusion of the keynote. In addition I did get an e-mail from Apple assuring me it would be delivered by the 19th.

I'm pretty concerned at this point. :confused:

Ok then nothing to worry about then....
 
Shipped!

I know that this is becoming old news since this thread is updated like twice a minute... but no one else at work appreciates my excitement, so I'll share with you guys.

Ordered June 8 from Apple.com for home delivery. Finally changed from "Prepared for Shipment" to "Shipped" at 8am today!

What for? To suffer the humiliation of getting spanked by an ATT clerk? No way are they going to 1) not let you have it and 2) not be snarky when they tell you to come back at 7am tomorrow.
 
Same here. If I don't have tracking information by later this afternoon I will be calling Apple to see what is up.

Same here...ordered a 16GB Black on 6/8 @ 7:50 PST...i live in NY. So not pumped about this "prepared for shipping." Ordered from the Apple Store online.
 
After getting my AT&T Premier order backordered that I ordered last week, I ordered from Apple.com the other day. I just got a shipment email this AM that it's coming via FedEx, I assume it'll show up tomorrow.

I will join you in your excitement since that's exactly what happened to my order status this morning! And now I have a FedEx tracking number! Woo-hoo!
 
Just out of curiosity, what was the reason you all just didn't reserve one in the store? Seems like its a lot easier and less hassle. I will stroll in tomorrow whenever I feel like it and pick up my two phones.

It will be easy to get them in the stores too. I got my 2g on launch, I walked in to the busiest apple store around(delaware, no tax) about 6:30, 30mins after the doors opened to sell them, and walked right up and bought two from the tower of thousands of them they had.

Is it that most of you have no apple store?

If you just stroll into the store whenever you feel like it, you may find that all of the preorder phones are gone.

I am tempted to stop by and ask.
