But even if it's dispatched today, Apple will have a lock on the courier service to ensure it isn't delivered until Friday.
I ordered mine as an upgrade through O2 - I'm guessing they have the same restriction on the actual day of delivery.
They do if they ever want the iPhone again although AT&T delivered the iPhone early to some with the iPhone 4.
Ooh...Apple debited me yesterday 
Not sure why I am so happy to be £600 down...it had better arrive on Friday!

Anyone know if the bricks and mortar apple stores in the UK have lightning to USB cables for sale yet? Or are they going on sale on Friday too?
Passing through London today and wondered if it was worth the detour to pick one up.

Have you been charged for just the phone or the phone and first month of contract? Mine has now been taken out my bank, but only for the phone.
UPS /Syncreon Tracking
I'm working from memory here but - Using 'SYNVIEW 360 Tracker', Put the [Order Number:] in the first box and then [Invoice Number] in the second (it appears after entering the first number) try switching or removing the 'W' It was a bit hit and miss at the time but it did work.

On Orange, and they Debited my card this morning. Should I really be this excited to see my money vanishing? Haha XD
Anyone else on Orange seeing money Debited? I ordered my 64 GB at 8:48 on Friday. New Customer.
In Newcastle-upon-Tyne I was told by several staff that they aren't stocking it, and asked me to check back on Thursday... He didn't know. I'll be guttered if the in-store stock sells out as badly as the online store before I can grab one, I have two living arrangements, and uprooting cables every other day doesn't sound like my idea of fun.
Try phoning ahead?

Do we even have invoice numbers?
Edit, I need the additional order numbers
Edit2:
On Syncreon's site, put the 'Tracking Number' down in the 'Order/Delivery No' box and the 'Additional Order Number' in the 'Sales Order No' box.

Just ordered my contract nano sim upgrade from my current sim from 3 over the phone. Simple process however they charged me £5 which will be added to my bill. My apple.com order still says prepared for shipment so i presume they must already be in the UK. They will also not send the sim out until the 21st so i wont be able to use the phone for a few days
Ok, thanks will do and report back.
Pretty sure they will have them, but likely to sell out quickly...I did try the Cribs Causeway shop after the announcement, last Thursday ... But they did not have any and were unable to say when they would.
Yep I have been debited £599 also, when I bought the iPhone 4 they took it the day after it arrived...
Orderd my sim so should be here thrusday hopefully! Phone paid for and bought cases and screen protector.. Just need to have my Friday holidays ok'd by my manager now! Hope they say yes lol

Both numbers are taken from the apple invoice on your Apple orders page.
Just seen above. Does that mean you have got a result?
My bank of scotland credit card is now showing apple charge of 599 pound. Woo hoo! (why does the pound sign not work?)
Hey so who has experience if a fresh order online as a new customer at t mobile? Although it still says preorder on their website I'm very skeptical as since ordering on Sunday afternoon and after logging in I get the message saying the order is being 'processed' by our sales team. Very vague and I'm left wondering if it's even close to bring successful and when I'll even get the thing. Any thoughts?
