Per a post on Appleinsider, UPS is holding his iPhone.

Was checking over there one those forums and there's a new post from somebody in KY. He checked UPS site and confirmed the phone is in KY, but there's a note that the shipper has requested they hold the phone for later delivery. I wonder if that will happen to all of us. It's been talked about all day. Maybe the first evidence...

That doesn't mean the hold's off-they may be holding them at the hub, and they just arrived there.

Mine says the same thing.

It says "Status: In Transit - On Time" which usually means it's on the move. There was a different status when it was on hold, which UPS says it's just a U.S. Customs thing.
