It probably just wasn't scanned yet or ready to move, or could be a UPS system glitch. They happen. Yours departed so relax, take a breath, you're fine.
People, people, you gotta' stop worrying so much. I've done 5 iPhone launches and 3 iPad launches and I've always received them on release day whether they came from Apple, Verizon, Sprint, or T-Mobile. First of all it's only a phone, you won't die without it. Secondly, UPS gets paid a ton by Apple and the carriers to make sure their logistics go off without a hitch. So unless a plane crashes and your phone already departed from Louisville, barring any unforeseen problems with a truck getting hijacked or if you are in one of the 2 ZIP codes where the Pope will be, you have nothing to worry about.
So I'd like all of you to just sit down, take a breath, have a snack, smoke a cigarette, listen to some good music (except for the guy with the Beats headphones who really should do some research about headphones and buy a real brand like Sennheiser or Audeze; I have $100K headphone system so I know what I'm talking about), go for a walk, take a nap because it's always a long and exciting night on the night before launch, have sex, shut up, take a Valium, or do whatever calms you down. You'll get your phones and then you'll be unhappy again since the anticipation is always more fun than the actual thing itself. But there's no need to keep fretting. You'll have it within 22-25 hours.
