If you live in a 100mile vicinity of Oakland, CA, Seattle, WA, Los Angeles, CA, or Ontario, CA your phone will be coming from Anchorage to those cities. Then trucked to your home. IF you are east coast it will be going to the Memphis hub from Anchorage to be put on another plane to your closest airport.

Not always. My bumper did the China-Alaska-Memphis route before heading through Seattle. Still got here faster than this damn phone, which appears to be spending a second night in Anchorage.
 
oh snap i forgot about the airport in ontario i live like 10 min from there. ineel how do you know? it makes sense that it would come to ontario im just wondering how u know this stuff

flightaware.com and my recently occuring OCD for apple products shipping to me.

I live in NY...does that mean i have to wait more?
 
Not really. Once your phone is in Memphis that means it will be delivered the next day to your house no matter where you live.

Mine says it arrived in Memphis at 12:23 tonight, but wont be delivered until the 13th. I live in KY which borders TN. Hope youre right and the tracking info is wrong

Los Angeles here!!

yeah the estimated delivery date is always wrong. Since its an intl shipment they put a few extra days for customs delays. But since its all cleared since the whole plane coming from CN is iphones everything goes through within minutes

Thats why some peoples phones are stuck in ANchorage, customs delays

If there is a whole pallet of just iphones it will pass quickly

So you really think its coming today? Or do they deliver on Sat?
 
Anyone from the UK following this thread?

Ordered on 20th July and this is my current TNT status:

08 Jul 2010 11:12:44 Arnhem Hub Shipment In Transit.
07 Jul 2010 09:29:07 Hong Kong Shipment In Transit.
07 Jul 2010 05:01:48 Hong Kong Shipment Received At Transit Point.
07 Jul 2010 04:10:27 Hong Kong Shipment Received At Transit Point.
07 Jul 2010 01:23:00 SZ1 Shipment In Transit.
07 Jul 2010 00:45:11 Shenzhen Shipment In Transit.

If I am correct in saying Arnhem is in the Netherlands, then that is only an hour or so's flight to the UK?
 
Anyone still in the prepared for shipment stage? What day did you order? I'm thinking we'll be seeing our iPhones the day they estimated. Oh well.

Yeah, I ordered the 24th and on the second day of PFS they processed my upgrade and sent me the CSS.
 
Where is the phone currently?

The main reason Id like to know, is that Ill need to write a note to hang on the door for the driver to leave it without a sig. I may be asleep (at work now) or gone you know. Not worried about my neighbors sneaking over and snagging a box off my porch.

Just check the fedex tracker around 9AM. It will tell you if its still in transit or out for delivery.
 
Hopefully it will make the connection to your home town. All domestic fedex flights leave between 1-3AM to your home. What city do you live in?

Ashland KY. Huntington WV has a fedex terminal at the airport which is like 10 min from my house. I can almost see the airport from work
