Anyone from TNT got anything yet? A UPS van just drove past my building and me thinks someone just got their iPhone 4 delivered to them. Why oh why did Apple stick me with TNT

No luck..Im with TNT, too.
Im from Birmingham, Sutton Coldfield. I live 5M away from the UPS place so im taking that it will take awhile but live around 15M from the Town Centre so i taking it will be awhile today for mine. Bloody England Match may make my delivery for tomorrow now
i got told that there were no white ones only black, and yeah I'm just constantly looking at my phone waiting for myiPhone dispatch text
Just got a text saying that it had been dispatched and that DPD would send a text about delivery. The consignment number is for a December 2009 delivery on the DPD site

Mmm, yes, because in the entire city, the only thing UPS is delivering today is iPhones.
Sheesh guys. Desperate much? LOL
Yep, sounds like you're in exactly the same boat as me. Maybe today, maybe tomorrow, maybe Friday, maybe even later. I'm thinking it's most likely to be Friday but I've got my kids' sports day Friday afternoon.
Come on Apple, Shropshire isn't exactly the outer Hebrides! And how come I can still book UPS to deliver stuff to me here tomorrow?
Just spoken to my friend whose the manager at my local O2 store and she said she's had quite a few iphone 4's in. She said she wasn't allowed to say how many but that Orange had only recieved 7 and it was alot more than that, & also that she thought she'd be able to get throught Thurs without running out (although I doubt that!)! Not sure if all O2 stores have been this lucky however. I'm queueing tomorrow so this eases my mind a little bit!
OK, info I have recieved:
Carphone Warehouse are phoning people - outbound team only - allowing people to upgrade for delivery tomorrow. They have 1000 phones to get rid of, and are selecting people based on their ability to upgrade, and whether they filled in the form on the site a few days ago. They will continue to keep calling until 8pm, which is the latest they can guarentee delivery tomorrow for, or until they run out.
People with a reservation for Regents Street tomorrow will 100% definately get a phone held for them. Whats more, they confirmed there WILL be a seperate queue for people with reservations, and while it may be long, it will move much quicker apparently.
People who have a PAC code can use it on a new contract they sign up for tomorrow. This applies at network shops and Apple stores.
O2 also phoned Gold / platinum members yesterday (and today?) to offer the same things as CPWH. No info on how many units they were handing out though.
I've attempted to get onto the list for CPWH and O2, and it simply cannot be done. You either get a call, or you don't. I'm not too worried though, as i've got a reservation to collect from regents street tomorrow

Yes, now you mention it there seemed to be several in the space of a few minutes and then it all went quiet again...
OK guys dunno if this has been posted yet but i';ve sussed out HOW TO TRACK TNT PACKAGES!!!
Firstly u go to the US apple site, and take note of the 9 digit tracking number they have.....NOT THE UK 10 digit number......then u go to tnt's tracking and click on this:
http://www.tnt.com/webtracker/tracker.do?navigation=1&respLang=en&respCountry=GB&genericSiteIdent=
this is the international shipping
put the 9 digit number in as the consignment number and track.....
this worked for me....it matches up with the uk 10 digit reference on the next screen.....all it says is "pick up date 23rd june"
so does that mean i will get it today or tomorrow???? someone else please do this and let me know what it says!!
