Verizon iPhone 5 Preorder Status Thread

Who knows how that system works. My guess when you first placed order, VZW sent initial charge to CC, ($1), and how quickly that cleared is probably when the order became official. With some banks it goes through right away. Other banks wait until next business day.
Mine came and it's charging. So far it looks like it's in good condition. No scratches or dents.
Do you have any problems with Wi-Fi or the camera purple flares?
I haven't tested yet just did the visual. I'm at work so can't do much just yet but I will post as soon as do a full test tonight.
When did you get updated and what did you get updated to?
----------
Sounds good
well, it is something. You should get a tracking number very soon.
I hope mine updates soon.
From my experience, I got charged last night then got the shipping email info 3 hrs later. It was also shipped last night. Delivered today.
Do you have an update or tracking number?
I bought mine at the same time (maybe an hour later) I don't have any updates.
Thought I would weigh in with my Verizon delivery...
My situation may be slightly different, as my iPhone 5 (32GB, Black) was ordered through a corporate account. It was ordered on the 14th at about 2 pm MST along with 2 or 3 other phones for employees in my office. It was ordered directly through Verizon. I was initially told that it would arrive on the 21st. I knew this was too good to be true seeing that my company ordered the phone so late in the day.
So the 21st rolled around and it didn't arrive (surprise, surprise). But, on Monday the 24th I was told that it had shipped over the weekend. Apprently it was in Tennessee on Monday. Well, it arrived today!
I have been reading about units that are scratched or banged up out of the box. On the top right "corner" my phone has a bit of a blemish on the bezzel. On close inspection it's not actually a scratch or a chip. It looks more like a little glob of whatever the coating is that Apple used on the bezzel. It doesn't make me happy to see, but it will soon be covered with a case and will therefore be out of sight and out of mind.
Cheers!

My order finally claims that it is processing, so hopefully by tonight or tomorrow night I should have a shipping update. :x
Do you have any other hardware problems?
----------
I see, so I should get some sort of update by tonight then.
Mine still has no movement. Calling Customer Service is no help. They cant do anything as it seems like they are locked out of the system.
I feel like me and you are the only ones who do not have tracking numbers yet on this board.
