Because they don't update tracking every second of the trip. It will update after it gets to another check point and probably not the second it gets there, either.
Apple/FedEx is probably preparing for a mass shipment and they are trying to squeeze as many iPhones onto a plane as possbile
Congrats! I have hope for my iPhone now. I hope it ships tonight U.S. time. (Daytime in China.)
another morning..still prepared for shipment.
Prepared for Shipment ... Day 5
They must be lost! How is it that people with shipments a week after me are getting shipped? It's been 5 days since I went on PFS! Something must be wrong
It's 1:30 A.M. in China right now so I guess the rest of Day 5 is going to creep by with no shipment as well.
I give up. They say it will "ship" by July 14th. I'm guessing 11:59:59 P.M. on the 14th. In the UTC -12 time zone no doubt. At which point they will "ship" it across the street, where it will spend 8-10 weeks in a staging area. Then it will finally go to the nearest port via bicycle courier, after which it will be loaded on a boat (but not before sitting on the dock for, I dunno, a few months). The boat will circumnavigate the globe before landing somewhere in the USA (whichever port is most distant from my house, no doubt). Then it will go by horse-and-buggy for final delivery on July 15, 2011. At which point Apple will announce iPhone 5.

June 17th, also 8:02pm, in Atlanta here. Still prepared for shipment. Getting irritated, which I feel like I shouldn't be because it still says "Ships by July 14th". *grumble*
LOL!
It's no better if it HAS been shipped. Mine is hanging out in Hong Kong and has been for more than 24 hours. I wonder what kind of trouble it found to get itself into? Hope it arrives with some great pics of its adventure...
Just woke up to see that my June 16th California order finally shipped. Estimated Delivery by the 13th (but it shouldn't take that long if other people's experiences are any clue). If you live in California and it still hasn't shipped, it's likely just a completely random process.
You forgot the part where the bicycle courier tours the entire Great Wall of China, and the horse (of horse-and-buggy) is liberated from his duties by animal rights activists.
