I was talking to a customer service representative and asked them if they were going to run out and they said we haven't gotten an e-mail saying that, but we did get an e-mail saying that all iPhone 3GS that are ordered before Thursday will be shipped and delivered on Friday the 19th.

Apple or AT&T rep?:confused:
 
Good news for an AT&T in-store order from last Friday:

Apple IPN 32GB S 3G BLK PHONE
Shipped
06/16/09

So I expect it by Friday, of course its not in the UPS database yet.

hey same with me....you getting it delivered to the store?

my order just showed tracking info about 30 min ago....but still shows 'in progress' and not 'shipped' :confused: who knows...looking forward to friday!! (my 3rd IPHONE day!! had the iphone on day one every year! SO EXCITING!) :apple:
 
NYC Update

FINALY!!! it says Prepared for Shipment. I ordered it June 10th I was getting worried. Has anyone else from NYC have theirs status change when ordering from Apple.

Yes, I ordered on Sunday from Apple, and the phone is now 'Prepared for shipment.' I originally had it scheduled to be delivered to my office, but then seeing as how a lot of the orders are being sent UPS, and UPS in Manhattan being horrible (at least around my office), I updated to have it shipped to my Brooklyn apartment. Now I'm just looking for an excuse to 'work from home' on Friday, so that I'm there when it arrives.

i am from outside philly and mine just switched as well, i guess it will be shipping from either jersey or pa area... i wish they would let us know!:eek:
 
There is no fact in that article... Its based on posts of users here. No one has actually seen their phone yet, or can say for certain that it will be arriving early.

**** On the matter of activating your phone, I recently spoke with Apple:

You are chatting with John T, an Apple Expert
APPLE: Hi, my name is John T. Welcome to Apple!
ME: Hello
APPLE:Hi... How are you today?
ME:Great, thanks
APPLE:How can I help?
ME: I purchased the iPhone 3G S yesterday (monday) and I was curious about two things.
APPLE: Sure.
ME: 1) When I receive it via pre-order will I be able to activate it from my home? Or will I need to go to AT&T or Apple?
ME: 2) Will it arrive to me by the 19th still, as advertised?
APPLE:Yes you can activate at home, and it will be there on the 19th.

There you go. Activate from home.

What if we order from AT&T Store. Will they let me activate at home?

I should have ordered from Apple.com, i placed the order on June 10th and still no change in status its been

"We have received your order request, and we expect to begin processing it shortly. " ever since i ordered it.
 
Is there anyone who pre-ordered through an AT&T Store able to use the tracking number from the order status site at UPS.com to track their iPhone? I tried entering mine but I get the message "UPS could not locate the shipment details for your request. Please verify your information and try again later." The tracking number showed up a couple of days ago, but I still can't track it.
 
Anyone?

Has anyone seen theirs shipped from APPLE?

I ordered mine the day of release at 9pm central online. It shows "Prepared for Shipment" and has showed that for two days. Should I be worried?
 
I wonder when mine will get here.

Ordered a 32 gig Black 3GS on 6/9/09.

Lists as..

Apple IPN 32GB S 3G BLK PHONE.........................In Progress

Various SIM....................................................In Progress

FREIGHT........................................................In Progress

1 ordered, 1 Back-ordered (says the page)

Same here, except mine just showed up. I ordered on the 12th.

Hey I was thinking, Our phones are already in the US and are just waiting to be delivered to the store...

Per the AT&T site
Shipped: Our warehouse has shipped this item.

Where is the AT&T warehouse located? Most likely not in China.

Yep, delivered to an AT&T store in Huntsville. Weird about the progress/shipped thing... probably just a glitch if you have a tracking number.

This will only be 2nd iPhone launch day... ;) I arrived at the same AT&T store last year about 5 minutes before the store opened at 8 and right around 10:00AM I got in the store and got the last black 16GB. Woo! Hopefully this time it'll just be a quick in and out. I hope I can just grab the box, and leave instead of sitting through an activation in-store.
 
When I called UPS they told me there was absolutely NO HOLD on the package (I gave my tracking number) and no notes or restrictions. UPS will NOT be holding the package from what I was told by their customer service department.

I am guessing you haven't been reading the boards have you?

What did you order? I'd suggest trying to buy a phone through Apple to see if it still shows the discount and if so then call the Premier number: 866-499-8008 and cancel. I used this number to cancel my Premier order after doing an in-store order on Friday.
