I spoke with Tom at Apple about my order not changing from processing items to a ship status. Well this is when i called apple and spoke with Tom. He told me my phone was not coming from China but from the US. He basically said that they are all at the carrier, UPS, FedEx, etc ready to ship. So for those waiting to see their phone status change, it will tomorrow, 24hrs before you get it. I'm just glad I did not have an issue with my order. This is why my status of processing items is still in the same state, until UPS starts to move them. The rest of you not seeing movement on your phone is because yours is not coming from china, it's already here. Come on Friday.

but thanks for the info. I was getting worried.
 
Todd, I am trusting you that you are serious about what Tom said. If my phone doesn't come on Friday I am going to FREAK OUT! Do you hear me Todd, FREAK OUT!!

Just kidding, it's just a phone. I'll only be freaking out in regular lower case.

LOL, that's funny.
 
Hate to tell you but Tom lied to you. Every iPhone shipped for release day is shipped directly from the Chinese factory. Then they arrive in Alaska then Kentucky (that's the journey my 3GS, 4 and 4S have taken). I didn't get my shipment notification from apple until it arrived in Alaska.

does this apply to canadian orders too? When I spoke with apple,they said mine is coming from china!!
 
I feel so much better now, I think I might just make it thru the day afterall.
 
My buddy at work was told the same thing just now. Mine was ordered early on the 7th and I got tracking information from China to Alaska to Kentucky.

His has been sitting in "processing" since the 7th.
He was told his will be here the 14th from a distribution hub within the US.

This is absolutely not true. I got my iphone 4 last year a day early. It "shipped" from Texas.
