You can check on operating frequencies at http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/
And then check the frequencies used by American networks at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks#Americas
Arrived in Hong Kong at 4:50, what flight do you think we will get to cologne? Or what time will the packages depart? So excited now!
if you get to know about the next flight kindly share.
ps it just showed some advancement. but i am confused :S

I have a uncomfortable feeling that the Gold order's may not even ship in the 7-10 day window. Nothing solid to base this upon, but it really would not surprise me.
I'm not complaining though tbh, no rush for the cash to leave my bank.
None, while the US and UK models have some overlap of bands used, none of those bands are used by the US carriers.
The only one that shows up on any of the same bands as the UK iPhone (1,3,5,7,8,20) is U.S. Cellular (band 5 planned 2013)
32GB silver ordered on the iphone app before the main store came back up. Sill processing I really hope us 32GB silvers see some movement soon.

I just called UPS UK branch (08457 877 877), and asked why my stuff is held in warehouse. The operator checked mine and said it is scheduled for delivery on 2nd October, so it is just a middle of progress. Now it is obvious that my iPhones will sit there until tomorrow afternoon.
Oh well... 2nd is much sooner than 7th October anyway. Time to have a lunch break.

Not sure how many phones will be delivered around the UK on Wednesday but it might be that UPS had to ensure they had the capacity to deliver them all from their depots. Probably talking about a few hundred phones at least on top of their normal deliveries. Posisbly Wednesday is normally their quietest day so made sense to schedule for then.
My 2 phones just arrived
downside: can't set them up at work as I don't have the nano sims with me
So lucky, enjoy! I can't wait until mine gets here. Just out of curiosity, what was your scheduled delivery date on UPS? Was it the 2nd October like the majority of ours is who's phones made the first flight out of China?
Mine did the same round trip, apparently.
Maybe it forgot to pack its Sim ejection tool?
My phone is broken and has been close to broken for 6 months so I need this phone.. But it haven't been a single delivery (online orders) of these phones (and 32GB Silver?).. Just feels kind of ****** since US and Australia has had them.
as requested
going to go home and grab the nano sims now

Someone reported earlier that UPS had taken on extra staff to cope with the demand around launch day, but of course they were not needed as there were no pre-orders for the 5s launch
Surely it would be better to get some over here for delivery tomorrow to spread the demand? UPS - if you are listening - I will volunteer to get mine tomorrow

If they called on additional staff for launch day, then they'll do the same on Wednesday I guess. Also, it looks like other shipments might catch up with ours and that might be why they're held in Colgne so that all can be shipped across together. It won't just be delivery staff, remember. There will probably need to be additional truck movements from the import hub to the local depots, which is why it would make sense to combine other shipments to make better use of resources.
I think I am, have you had another departure scan from Shenzehn? Look:
