I got my confirmation # about an hour ago. It says it is in Louisville,Ky. I have a feeling it has been there a while even though UPS tracking shows it being scanned in at 10 a.m.
ive read through all of these posts in the last couple of days. i was just trying to get some solid info on my order. i am a new customer with sprint. i ordered the iphone 5 16 GB BLACK. i just got my tracking number today @ 12:23 pm and i ordered @ 12:00 pm on the pre order day. so im freaking ecstatic!!!! just keep being patient guys, its almost here!
UPS still shows the package at the "Origin Scan" step, so no need to panic yet. I'm betting that the pile of phones theory is right, but then add in the fact that Spring certainly had the phones organized by capacity and color in their warehouse. Maybe they just got to the 64gb ones earlier than the 16gb ones. It seems clear that change is happening though. And thus far everyone who ordered in the "window" for their device is scheduled for a Friday delivery
Perhaps the tracking numbers are being given out in the order that the pre-orders were placed in.
Whoever got a tracking number, could you post what day and time you pre-ordered?

I did not.
Ordered white 64gb at 6am on the 14th. UPS says it was scanned at 9:18am. I got my email from Sprint at 11:28am
I got my tracking info this morning. Ordered a 16g White for my mom and 32g White for me at 10am central on 9/14. No Applecare+ for either of us. Still waiting on my dad's info. He got a 32g Black around 2pm 9/17 with Applecare+, but Sprint.com still says to expect on or around the 21st.

HOW TO GET YOUR IPHONE FASTER THROUGH SPRINT. I was on the phone 5 times with them they gave me the run around told me they are back ordered. I ordered at 7:30am the 14th. So after telling them that their email updates are a lie and why they keep updating lies I told them I wanted to cancel my order. They told me I could not and I responded I can if your email says I am receiving it the 21st and you can not deliver then its a lie. So make long story short tell them you even called pre order department and they gave you the run around and that you want them personally to call pre-order department personally and you will wait. { (866)789-8292 pre-order # if you get lucky} then when pre order gets on the phone you tell them you want to cancel since they can not deliver when they say. AND GUEST WHAT HAPPENS YOU MIRACULOUSLY GET A TRACKING NUMBER IN LESS THAN 10 MIN OF REFRESHING YOUR PRE-ORDER PAGE AND SAYS IT WILL BE DELIVERED 9/21/2012

That may have been a coincidence since a lot of us who just waited it out are now getting tracking numbers
I'm assuming it's the oy-order number. Ask someone who got the shipping E-Mail.
