I'm pretty confident and it has been stated in previous posts, the Preparing for shipment with no tracking information available is a good thing. Ours are sitting in some warehouse ready to get delivered tomorrow (I HOPE ) 
Got a tip for us?

Mine. However, mine shows as shipped. Do you have an old page in your cache or something?
Ontario California, it's going to leave for there in 2 hrs. Touch down ONT at 10:52pm.
mine has been sitting in SDF all day.... Next flight to my town isn't till 5am in the morning. Hoping for maybe a day early, prolly not... but one can dream right lol.
The flight continues on to Ontario, CA but that doesn't necessarily mean our phones do also. It's either Ontario or Louisville.
Can anyone who was on flight 59 yesterday clue us in here?
I have tried to check my order on the UPS website using both my phone number and order number (minus the last two digits) as the reference number... It cannot find anything.
I see several people can track their phones, and a lot of people have their phones already shipped to the US. On apple's website, it says "preparing for shipment" est delivery date Oct 14.
Not worried one bit. I'm pretty confident my order will either be canceled (like many others were) or that I will receive the phone on Friday. I just kind of wish I could track the phone just so I know FOR SURE my order won't be canceled.

Ahhhhhh....gotcha. I'm thinking Ontario, Canada...haha. I am located in Sacramento, so I'll be interested to see if it goes to Louisville or Ontario.
Mine has been sitting in KY since 9:28 this morning. There are zero flights showing up scheduled to depart KY for NC. So much for being the "cool guy" with the unreleased phone.
I'm in Denver so it's not much of a difference either way for me. I'm pretty sure mine will eventually go thru Salt Lake though as most of my UPS orders do that.
Looks like these are our flight options:
UPS59 B744 Ontario Intl (KONT) Tue 05:00PM AKDT Tue 10:52PM PDT
UPS63 B744 Louisville Intl (KSDF) Tue 03:05PM AKDT Wed 01:07AM EDT
UPS65 B744 Louisville Intl (KSDF) Tue 03:08PM AKDT Wed 01:10AM EDT
UPS71 MD11 Ontario Intl (KONT) Tue 03:40PM AKDT Tue 09:31PM PDT
UPS81 B744 Louisville Intl (KSDF) Tue 03:09PM AKDT Wed 01:11AM EDT
If they bust a$$ we could be on one of the 3 Louisville flights

I am like so freaking out here!! My iPhone was ordered from Apple and shows preparing for shipping for delivery Oct 14th but nothing on UPS works!!!
On to Louisville
Mine was on the UPS Flight 59 that recently landed in Anchorage. Using Yahoo Small Business for tracking, it said that it was en route to Louisville. Now that it has landed in Anchorage, it does not presently say where it is en route to. Having used Yahoo for tracking before, I'm quite confident that mine is going to Louisville next. YMMV.

Mine was on it and it went to Louisville. It's been there since about 9:23AM local time...
You're really freaking out?
You really think you're not going to get your phone?
Think ahead one week from today, it will be Tuesday evening, your iPhone 4s will be in your hand and it will already be several days old by that point in time.
Soon enough you'll be thinking of the iPhone 5.
Relax.
Sounds reasonable. What's its final destination? (Maybe Anchorage is a splitting point for east/west coast)
Nevermind. Just saw dborja's post (thanks btw).
Eh, I'm pretty close to half way between the two options anyways.
thats less than 8 hours 1140PM to 7AM
mine also left at 11:40pm
mine also left at 11:40pm

Your math is way off.
my Apple ordered shows prepared for ship, but used this and its shipped!! How do we check AT&T to see if it shipped?
