Mine is also in Alaska.
I live in Texas so west or east coast don't make a difference to me. Could be here tomorrow!!! I am so pumped.
Got a tip for us?

I ordered my 32gb on the 20th, shipped 24th. In AK today. Due on the 29th and paid for 2-3 shipping.
I ordered my 16GB White 3GS on monday the 22nd. It left alaska today at 3:04 pm.
Says monday the 29th for estimated arrival. I was hoping to get it by saturday since i sold my v1 and shipped that out monday as well. Oh well!
Currently Phoneless!!
I think some of ours are on a plane together

so, i'm annoyed. my status went from "prepared to ship" to "not yet shipped." yes, that's backwards. so i called apple to see whattup and they said ATT didn't approve the activation for some reason (even tho i'm already a customer for umm like 2 years). call ATT, three transfers later, i'm told i didn't accept the terms and conditions of the contract. if i was in a store i would have signed a paper but never did anything like that online. um hello, when was i told to? at no point during ordering did i reject terms and conditions or even SEE terms and conditions. i had to call a computerized line and accept the renewed contract. then, back on the phone w/ apple... she claims i should have gotten an email with a link to accept the contract. i got an order confirmation which i just read 400 times, no link to accept a contract. anyway, everything should go through now, but it won't change to prepared to ship til tomorrow at the earliest and hopefully it will ship out the same day. i was entirely calm throughout the whole thing and kind of overly friendly, hoping to get a shipping upgrade, since you know, i had to play investigator and fix an oversight on their part, but nope, nada. just "we can cancel it for you if you wanna go to a store"
BLAH.
BLAH.

I would just go to the store and pick it up. Even if you wait an hour or so, it's better then waiting several days to get it.
I hope so. But it would be either Friday or Monday since Apple would need to specify that Saturday deliveries are allowed. Mine still says departed AK. I don't think I will receive it by Friday.
So...in 5 short hours my phone has traveled from Alaska to Tennessee.
Is there hope that it'll be here by the morning?
I think so but I'm not going to get my hopes up.
Any updates on anyone else's front?

Mine still says Departed from AK. I'm in CA so I don't know what to except. I would of thought it would of made it to CA by now, but I guess not.
I ordered mine on the 20th also, mine arrived on the 25th I paid the 2-3 day ship. I guess I was just lucky
.
I ordered mine Monday the 22nd from apple online. It says it shipped out the 25th from china but I just got my phone like 10 minutes ago. I did standard shipping but man that was fast!
Maybe the fedex tracker is a day behind or something because it took 1 day to get from china to me.
Loving it so far!!!

I ordered it the 22nd and it got here today.
From apple also.
Weird that most peopel that ordered monday isn't here yet..
I got tracking and everything, it shipped out on the 25th and came today
When you made you purchase, what was the estimated time until it shipped? I ordered mine yesterday, and it says 5-7 days. I'm, of course, hoping they'll ship sooner.
