Don't forget, Tim doesn't like inventory. Steve liked having supply on hand. Stevens days had website crashes with fewer places to order. Tim 's days have sporadic issues and little inventory to start.

I remember the days of the first 2-3 hours having a chance to get it on launch. I am blown away about being 22 minutes in and having a delivery at one month later. I'm not even upset about it but I am amazed. A 1-2 week headstart would have made a big difference. Build the inventory.

Like I said before, I think Apple pushed up the release date in order to take advantage of Samsung's bad press. Probably why stock is low and a lot of people won't be getting iPhone's on 9/16.
 
Ordered through Apple Store app. AT&T 7+ 128gb Matte Black. Confirmation 5:06am CST. No updates yet as expected.
 
I'm in the Sept 26-Oct 3 group also, but I'm not officially joining this thread until Friday afternoon. I'm holding on to hope for a couple more days.
 
Ordered 128 GB 7+ Matte Black, completed at 2:12 AM CDT, ships 10/4-10/10. Still processing.

My hope is dwindling...
 
My little bit of hope I was holding onto is nearly gone. I waited for 10 minutes for the store to go live at 3:00AM and when I finally got in ATT was not going through on the Apple Store. My order was finally processed sometime before 3:30 but delivery date moved to 27-29 for my rose gold 128 +. Order is still processing. Same thing happened with my watch :( so sad I won't get on launch day and a little more upset I made an extra ATT Next payment in order to be able to preorder. If I really don't get it until 27 I believe my Next payment will have been paid again.

A lot of people started seeing movement yesterday, charges on cc and dates moved from 9/23, to 9/16. So don't give up yet if you were online at the beginning of preorders. Looks like it's just taking time to get the inventory and then putting the phones with the accounts.
 
Mine says Preparing to Ship, I even have a serial number in the support area, but no tracking info.
 
Hello just found this thread, i purchased a JB 7+ 128GB, I may be the last one on here to close it out by the time I get my phone... still says "ships" November...
 
Officially joining this thread. Probably going to change my shipping address back to my home address since I will be back in state from visiting my family by the time the 26th rolls around. Verizon JB 128GB Plus. Was hoping for delivery the 16th. Order confirmation email came through at 12:13. Ship date 9/26-10/3

I have to keep using the smart grenade Note 7 until I receive my iPhone. If I stop replying to this thread it'll be because the Note blew half my face off. Pray for me!

Do you think your place in line will change if you edit your shipping address?

For the first time in my iPhone buying history I didn’t do the late night preorder. I went to the AT&T store on Saturday to do some shared plan shuffling and everybody preordered an iPhone 7. There’s a strange sense of comfort knowing I won’t be getting it until early October. Nothing more annoying than doing the late night gauntlet completing the order within 10 minutes of preorder launch and then still not confident you’ll get it on release day.


I actually have somewhat an opposite problem. I’m going to be out of town the week before it’s supposed to arrive and I’ll be stressed if the order gets pushed up and they try to deliver it when I’m not there.

Honestly I'm slightly concerned it will, but if I'm not getting it on launch day I guess it doesn't matter when it comes after that. Either way I have to wait now.
