I wouldn't be surprised if they shipped Tuesday and we get them on Thursday before launch.

im glad I have a tracking number for mine but the wife will be pissed if hers doesnt come. However the site says both are still expected for the 14th so im sure its ok

If it was done on the same transaction the items will ship together and you will receive only 1 tracking number.
 
Looks like you will get your iPhone Wednesday!!!! SOOOO LUCKY!!!!

AWESOME! Did you get an email with the tracking number, or did you just check your status?

I just checked my status and got the number. No email at ALL throughout this whole thing?! Besides a email I basically TOLD a Sprint rep to send me (called a "tele-sales proof of purchase". However, it had a new order number (different format) that gave me the tracking number.

Can't wait!! :D
 
Bearer of bad news

Not to be the downer, but I work part time at the Louisville UPS hub and I can tell you from multiple iPhone and 2 iPad launches, UPS usually gets the phones in a few days early and then stores them at a local warehouse that deals strictly with phones and knows when to ship them out. They know when what items need to be shipped to arrive in Washington state or New York in order to be delivered on the date Apple says. So the estimated delivery date means nothing as of right now, I would completely ignore it.

But on the positive side, the last 2 launches, a few people got theirs early because when dealing in a volume of boxes as high as the numbers here are going to amount to, a few are sure to slip thru early again.

So don't get excited but good luck and hopefully a few arrive on Wednesday or Thursday.

I figured that, anyone else that can corroborate?
 
To those that have tracking #'s..... Are you new customers or existing Sprint customers?
 
I'm a new customer and ordered 5 iPhones through Sprint, one being a regular 4, and it is the only one with a tracking number so far. :(
