Yet another day and of course, zero information from Apple on where the %$@#@ my gray 64g 5S is. Sigh... Maybe before Thanksgiving? Maybe..
im ordered at the same day of you.. my is preparing now. thats good news to you.. until monday you can get a informationCongratulations to all of you who got your iPhones shipped yesterday or today. Unfortunately for me, I'm not one of the lucky ones. My order is still processing and I feel pretty gutted about it, especially since I seem to be the only European here who ordered on October 25th (24th according to Apple) and has yet to see a change of order status. I guess my next shot will be on Monday...

The mine has not been shipped yet, it's preparing for shipment

I assume you ordered directly from Apple? If so it looks like Apple have shifted distribution into Europe. Until now the UK orders have been shipping straight from the factories in China - I wonder if UK orders will now be shipped from closer to home as well?
For those Europeans that have had your iPhones ship recently, you should be able to view your invoice using the "Print Invoices" link on Apple's Order Status page. Can you post your build week and factory code? (You will find the serial number on the invoice then enter it on this website).
My first 5s order changed from "Preparing to dispatch" to "Dispatched" on a Saturday, but that came from China. It looks like the European orders are shipping from The Netherlands, so I don't know if they will ship on a Saturday.
The UK 5s orders could be tracked from China i.e. the label with my address on was stuck on in China. It looks like things have changed, and Apple have shipped a large consignment of 5s to The Netherlands, and then the shipping labels are being stuck on there.
The implication is that now orders should be delivered more quickly once you get your dispatched email i.e. delivered in a 1-2 days from Europe rather than 3-5 days from China.

Thanks for that. It is currently week 45, so your phone has been around for three weeks - one would think Apple might have been able to ship it to you a bit sooner! (My first C3 phone shipped from China the week it was built!)
As a recall, most of the early UK orders were from C3, but now there seem to be a lot of F2 phones appearing in Europe.
