dont think they are out of stock..they reserved an amount for preorders.

clearly, the reserved amount wasn't enough...why does anyone find this hard to believe that they are out now until the 9/10th??? You're talking 93 million subscribers, who you just told "hey guys, over here, you too can finally put down your inferior weapons, and pack a real phone like the cool kids do"...seriously guys, this is the power of Marketing 101...the iPhone is not as much a great phone as it is a fashion statement, a lifestyle, and an ethos...when you've hit that level of marketing when the world markets the product for you, you've reached the pinnacle that every marketing manager drools about reaching once in his lifetime...it's over Johnny...over...back up the truck, don't fight the man, just buy AAPL stock and profit from him....

It really is as simple as that...Apple has reached a level of cool-ness and "must have" fashion beyond anything else we've seen in the last 50 years, maybe ever.

Peace guys, hope everyone gets their phones promptly, and I get mine tomorrow! HA!
 
Automated system is saying no recent orders in system.
I call back and talked to a rep who said the phone has shipped from warehouse but she did not have a tracking number as of yet.
 
Mine now shows "Shipped" on the VZ Order status page....and my Amex card just got charged from the NJ distribution center it appears. Here's the Pending credit card charge from my Amex:

Doing Business As: VERIZON D239301

The NJ distribution center is on Washington Valley Road?!?!?!?!? I'm sitting at my boyfriend's house right now, which is located RIGHT OFF OF Wash. Valley Rd, and my house is only 5/6 mins away. SO CLOSE AND YET SO FAR!

Mine is! Can't wait till tomorrow... and so will my boost case! perfect timing :D
 
Could it possibly still arrive tomorrow or Saturday though? If it's already been shipped, why would FedEx not be able to deliver on Saturday? I would think that the "2 business day" thing should only apply before it's shipped...

Because it cost more to ship on Saturday and unless things have changed in the last few years, Fedex doesn't fully staff it's stations on Saturdays. It runs on about a quarter of it's workforce and there is no way they could meet delivery goals if they had to take out the the mass of iphones that are heading to the larger cities. But like i said it costs more and I doubt Verizon is going to hook us up like that.
 
I have tracking info! Just received an email...coming through UPS. Yay! And my order number was in the 1 millions, so don't give up!
 
So I get the page is currently unavailable when I use the 16 digit confirmation number and when I use my short order number it says the:

We have experienced technical difficulty while processing your order.
Please contact Us.

It said shipped with no tracking number earlier today. Hmmm.
 
At least yall are showing something! Mine was ordered through a business account and from the business account order status page all i show is "PRE" and i ordered at 3am. I was not even given a reference number! blerg!

yep yep same here,, seems like all we have to do is wait..
 
I got the shipped, within 2 business days as well. I do enough over night ordering that I have come to realize they pad the days. Although 2 days could mean two days, I have had this before when it was an over night order and it showed up the next day. Not verizon but another company. Without a tracking # we are sol at this point.
