These times are local. There is no way a flight leaves Hong Kong at 7:26PM and arrives at 12:54PM the same day if both time zones are UTC. Its a 568 minute (9 1/2 hr) flight that departs at 7:26 hong kong time UTC+6 and arrives in ANC at 12:54 UTC - 8 Alaska time. Thats 7.5+9.5 - 8 + 6 = 13 or 1PM. So Thats 5 ET, 2 PT.

sorry thats wayyy too much for me lol is that 5 ET that the flight lands or departs confused :(
 
jeez people. it is a phone. not only that merely an update to something you prolly already have. now June 29th 2007 was exciting, but this? meh.

I've been waiting two years for this. Much longer than the 6 months the first batch of folks had to sit around twiddling their thumbs longingly. Cut me some slack. :p
 
Anyone who ordered in person at an actual AT&T store at this point?

I pre-ordered on June 9. Yesterday I checked my order status and it was still "In Progress" but there was a tracking number which did not work on the UPS website.

Later on Monday afternoon, my status changed to Shipped. The image below is where I'm at now (Tuesday afternoon, 6/16). It states my phone shipped on 6/12. However, the tracking number still does not work on the UPS website. I get the following error:

"UPS could not locate the shipment details for your request. Please verify your information and try again later."

Since I will be picking my phone up at the AT&T store I'm not really concerned about tracking except that I would like to be sure my phone is there on the morning of June 19th. Even it were delivered to the store early, I doubt they would let me pick it up before the 19th anyway.

Yep you ordered the same day I did.. and in-store and I have the exact same thing as you.

Im sure it will be there before June 19th so no worries.


EDIT: Though my only states "Freight" .. It use to state the iPhone + Freight.. but now it just shows "Freight" and the tracking number on that..

Your situation is identical to mine. The only thing I can think of is that Apple shipped a bulk shipment of phones to the AT&T Direct Fulfillment warehouse. Once this shipment arrives, AT&T will unpack and ship the phones to the respected store. Once they do this, our individual tracking numbers will start to work.

That said, I'm 100% confident that my phone will be waiting for me Friday morning at the AT&T store. :cool:

You do not have to explain yourself to trolls. Most of us understand your excitement.

I never understood why there was an entry for both iPhone and Freight anyway. On my AT&T receipt it lists both as well. It may have something do with what NightStorm said below.

That's a good theory. I'm not worried at this point either but it's good to know there are others at the same point in the process. As long as the phone is there at 7:00am on the 19th AT&T I will be cool. I'm leaving town Friday afternoon and I want to have my iPhone on the trip damn it! :cool:

Thanks guys.
