Preparing For Shipment status at Apple

[GadgetGeek407]

curious how do you guys do a partial screen shot of just the items shipping vs the whole screen

 

[lilj4425]

Preparing for shipment also. Ordered through the Apple App at 5:30am EST

That's exactly the same time I ordered but mine still says "being processed." 16GB Black version. Lame.

They won't actually ship until at least Monday though right (next business day)? So what's the fuss all about?

Black 16gb and White 16gb

Both in Preparing for Shipment status.

shift-command-4 (in OS X) will bring up a target reticle you can use to select what you want to capture.

No it is still being processed. Everyone's starts off at that status.

No, it said just processing before, not dispatched.

Apple FTW!

Preparing for shipment already!

I'm a ****** person. But at least I know how to crop a screenshot.

UK store, early order, few mins after site was working.. I guess if we get unlocked iPhones at launch then those in the states deserve to have them processed faster!

 

[gretschdrummer]

Any hope in getting them early?

 

[forza69]

For those of you that have their progress at "Preparing for Shipment", does that mean you might get it earlier than the 14th?

No it just means they are preparing the paperwork for them to leave China. Order number by order number.

both of mine show as prepared for shipment (16 gb black)

I'm as excited about iOS 5 on the iPad this week as I am at the 4S

 

[johnray10]

mine is still in processing, but it does say "delivers on oct 14". guess that means I'm in the first batch?!

 

[2010RS]

mine says "out for delivery"

I hope so, as I'm in that boat too.

Yeah that's weird everyone's have been taking so long, mine got delivered yesterday...

 

[GadgetGeek407]

I sure hope so. I ordered a white 64GB model and mine says the same thing. I'm in Hawaii and placed my order on Thurdsay at 2320 HST, which was Friday at 0220 (2:20AM). I realize that I'm in Timbuktu, at least with respect to having items shipped to me, but I'm hopeful that I can at least receive my iPhone by Friday. All things considered, this is much preferable to waiting in line for hours and hours on end, only to be informed that all iPhones have been sold out in store.
