Anyone who is in NYC areas with departure scan from Louisville at ~~3:23 our plane landed in JFK!!!
-jamacia NY arrival scan 5:31

I just got my ARRival scan in Jamaica NY... Now the phones will be on truck going to the ups hub!!


Awesome!! I can't wait to play with my phone tomorrow. The last few days felt like years to me.
 
Looks like mine left Louisville at 4:18PM headed to the New England area - The majority of the packages for Boston actually fly into Windsor Locks (Hartford, CT) and then get trucked to Boston. So I'm expecting the flight to come into Connecticut in the next hour or so and then be transported to Boston overnight. Crossing my fingers for an early morning delivery tomorrow!
 
Indeed, 9/25'ers have been somehow manually excluded from today's processing in Louisville.

I won't be upset unless they fail to meet the 9/25 date...but for reference I have never had any UPS package sit in Louisville like this.

Anyone that claims that UPS is not struggling with the volume is kidding you.
 
Thanks for the update. I'm in the same group as you. Except I'm a 7:48'er, but the rest of my scans are the same as our 7:10 brothers.

I have all of the same scans as you, except I never left Korea, and mine was shipped on the 19th.
 
My domestic package due tomorrow is still sitting in KY, as well as my iPhone. If I see the domestic package leave before the iPhone, that's when I finally give up hope I will see the iPhone tomorrow.

I'm a 9/25er, so I won't be crying if it doesn't come tomorrow.
 
My iPhone has landed in Newark!

After having my iPhone Plus bend its way around the globe, it has finally landed in Newark! Delivery set for tomorrow. :)

Thank you for everyone for being together on the journey! I still have a little further to go, so I will not be leaving this thread just yet. I hope someone bends some rules to get those iPhones not scanned yet, in and out of Louisville so you see the flexibility the new phone brings you!

Mine is coming to Jersey too. My Import Scan was at 12:30PM. No Departure Scan though :(

Did you get your Departure Scan and Arrival Scan at the same time?

Sorry for more depressing news...

But THIS is not good.....

lol...give me a break. How freaking tight would your pants have to be to apply the same amount of pressure as someone straining to bend the phone with his hands? This isn't reflective of real-world use or pressures that your phone is going to be subjected to; it's completely sensationalized.

I've been thinking about getting a holster just because the phone is pretty big to keep in my pocket, but maybe that's a solution skinny jean hipsters should consider as well?
 
Cases Once Again!

I know it has been discussed within this thread but finding it will be difficult due to the length. It has also been discussed in other threads, but I have come to trust each of you. What cases are you considering? Given the size, I am worried about a bulky case. In the past I typically used Otterbox or LifeProof but I think they may be unwieldy on the plus.
