Mine has been stuck on this since I ordered- is something wrong? or is this how its supposed to look?

Yes, mine was like that too. I called about 5 or 6 times yesterday until I finally reached someone who knew what they were talking about. He had to manually push my order through and give me a new order #. Now it says I have a shiny new iPhone waiting in the warehouse for me. No tracking # yet. But I was told that I would still be getting my iPhone within the same timeframe of the 14th or 15th. You should call the # they give you on that screen for questions and have them look at your order.

So how's the service? I used to have Sprint way back in the day, way back. But I'm switching to Sprint for a few reasons, but I'm ****ing sick and tired, and tired and sick, of ATT signal inside where I live. One bar, maybe.

Haha umm, it's generally very reliable. The data speeds are a bit slower than ATT, but to me it's worth it. Where I live, Sprint has some service issues, but that's because I'm in a VERY rural area. But when I travel, I do have very reliable service. Basically saying my issues, are based off of my area haha. Plus unlimited data ROCKS!!

I have that now with ATT, but with ATT if you go 100 yards on the main roads into your neighborhood and then inside your house, there's nothing. Was like that in three different places in Virginia and now it's like that here in Florida. It gets VERY annoying to have to stand outside to make a ****ing phone call.

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.

This. The sender can place a stipulation on the shipment to not have it delivered until a certain day. It is actually quite common. A few times I have ordered something with a store's super cheap "economy" shipping option which according to them takes "5-7 days" and UPS ground will actually hold it until the date in which the company deems its been 5 days. This happens when their warehouse is like 5 hours away by car so it only takes UPS a day or two to get me the package.

Cool though..i hope it slips through the cracks or sprint didn't exercise that option!

Ok so here is how my order status screen looks. The only difference I can see is that I am not a new customer and I have a business account...anyone else can verify this?

Is that the same order number in the order confirmation email you received?
When I went into my order history I had a number close to that one. When I look at the email however it was different. I used the email one to track my order and had new information.

Wow, that's ridiculous! Ya, Sprint SHOULD be better for you. Plus, roaming off of Verizon towers is nice hahaha ;)

hmmm...I never received an email with a confirmation. When I called sprint they told me that i didnt get this email because I didnt give them my email address....I dont know how many times i have to give this to them but they never seem to keep it or have it. So I dont know if this is the same confirmation number as the email version...so we will see and hope that I get our phones on friday because I have a three day weekend to play with them. HEHEHE:)
