it was like this with the ipad3 dont worry.
you'll get your phone!

all the being sent around is them sorting it. Memphis is the main hub, can reach several major cities.

Thanks! Good to know the iPad 3 was similar. Don't remember the 4s looking so weird lol. I knew Memphis was the hub just all the movement is a little strange! :D
 
My wife and kids and I eat there occasionally. I work and play in Tyler but live in Lindale for the schools. Friendly town though

yeah all of east texas is friendly i miss that aspect of it. ive lived all over the us, and people seriously are the nicest there.
 
Same thing for him, It seems like the NY metro area was left the last one! FINALLY! I'm going to be able to sleep tonight!

I'm D771001 but I just got processed last night and go my tracking number this AM at 5:10AM. Also shipping from West Chester, PA overnight for delivery 09/21 :D

for sure! i was pretty worried last year. mine says in transit..yet again... , so i assume its going to finally move from memphis today. I just hope fedex here has it by 3pm. I cant wait to play with it.
 
Hey! Just curious, what state are you in? Mine's at Newark too and mine's headed to michigan. Most people's phones at Newark are headed to NJ/PA/NY, which is why I'm wondering...

Massachusetts here! :) About 3 hours away from NJ/NY.
 
Rats! Just checked my preorder status. Still scheduled to ship the 26th. DRAT!! Oh well, it just gives me a few days to check in here to see how everyone likes the 5.
 
"Shipment information sent to FedEx" showing in my tracking record.
This is after 3 or 4 "in transit" to Memphis FedEx facilities.
I now can see destination, weight, etc.
They indeed were holding these iPhone shipments until 20th so that they can mass overnight ship everything together.

Same here. Looks like we should see alot of movement today.
 
W779201 with no movement

I remain hopeful, but as of this morning my W779201 order with ship date of 9/21 has shown no movement. No charges to my bank account either.:p
 
Better than me, I called today and the lady tells me that there is a hold on my account but has no idea what it is about!

did you call internet sales and not just the normal reps? i had gotten an email my order was on hold and it was because they needed a security deposit... other people have been put on hold cause their credit card flagged the charge... the normal reps can't help you but internet sales should be able to. 866-338-7390

I'm in D771901, but in the same boat. Misery loves company and all :p

I keep refreshing my bank page hoping to see a large transaction suddenly appear... :D

Same here... thought my phone was on the way to my local facility, but nope! in 14 hours it was in transit to nowhere! :D

True, I should try them next, thanks for the suggestion. The only reason I didn't call them is because I am on a business account, so I called the business reps. I did check, and my CC company has a preauth charge, and no security holds. I feel like businesses may be getting the shaft on this preorder. Either that, or they are holding all the business orders to ship en masse today.
 
My iPhone is cruising around Memphis

Looks like my phone is just joyriding around Memphis:

Mine still says that too, im hoping for a last minute 9/21 miracle bump
 
Business update

So Internet sales told me that business orders will be sent out later today. Finally!
