Wow. I bet the stores will start selling them early. I'm going this afternoon. I hope I'm right.
 
I think Apple is worried about 2 million iPhones being activated on the same day through AT&T. This way they can spread the load across 2 or 3 days.
 
Wonder if those holding a reservation at an Apple Store will also get to take part in the revised launch date of 6/23? :rolleyes:

My guess is 'no' seeing how Apple emailed the 'reserve' people telling them they can pick it up 7:00am on Thurs. I would be annoyed because for me it was a coin toss order/reserve.....chose order.
 
Got this email, too. Fedex tracking still says in Anchorage. Just chillin, it will get here when it gets here.

I'm happy for everyone who will get theirs delivered tomorrow as opposed to Thursday. It just sucks (for me) because if the order page had listed in-home on the 23rd or pick-up in the store on the 24th, I would have gone with delivery rather than pick up. Blerg.
 
Nice, mines in NJ, not far away.

Now I just have to scramble to change my vacation day plan for the week...
 
Both of my Premier ordered AT&T phones are now scheduled to arrive 6/23 by 3pm.
While I am happy that we get the phones a day early, I am also kind of bummed about having to cancel some volunteering I do every Wednesday to sit home and wait for the delivery. No way am I leaving that much money sitting on my doorstep. I take one of my four Greyhounds to a Assisted Living and Memory Care facility on Wednesdays. I bet a lot of people will be having this issue with having arranged for a vacation day on Thursday. Hopefully they can switch it out to Wednesday now.

Or you could, you know, not accept delivery until the 24th, as originally expected... They won't leave packages without authorization (and definitely won't leave them if you leave a note saying not to).
 
My tracking says at 12:29am it was in memphis what if we get them today or will they hold them one whole day? Im only three hours from memphis, tn. SO FREAKING CLOSE!

I'm only 15 minutes away from where mine shows right now, but I think we'll be waiting until tomorrow, and if that email from apple is incorrect then the 24th. But I'm keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow because I dropped my 3G two weeks ago, and the screen shattered, so I really need this new one!
 
I also got the email from Apple saying it would be delivered on the 23rd. However Fedex tracking still shows the 24th as the delivery date. I don't believe that it will show up early, but I'll definitely welcome it!

The email does acknowledge that your tracking info may indicate a later delivery date and that, despite this, it will deliver on the 23. I'm leaning towards believeing it, if nothing just because I'll get mine a day early! :D
 
23 June - iPhone 4 and Droid X

iPhone 4s arriving on the 23rd and Apple is uncharacteristically allowing it. The same day Motorola is officially introducing the Droid X. Interesting..
 
Anyone stop to think that maybe they are allowing early delivery to help take away from the announcement of the new Motorola Droid?

Whoops guess so...poster above beat me to it!

Even if they did start selling them early (which they probably won't), are you just going there tonight to ask about it/wait in line until tomorrow, or do you think they will have them today?
 
Dang ... I *knew* I should have ordered from Apple! :apple:

Stupid AT&T jerk-faces. :mad:

My friend, relax, a million of us tried in vain to order from Apple's website — these are merely the lucky hundred thousands who got through :)

Now I will be really really :mad: if they don't 'keep' my phone in my Apple store till the 'close of business' on the 23rd as promised in my reservation confirmation — my plan is to show up at 8.30 p.m. and get the phone before 9 p.m., their closing time.
 
Does anyone know if walmart will carry protectors for the iphone 4, could be a place to grab it a day before since most are open at midnight

Was gona say, someone mentioned this on the first page actually, but pretty clever of Apple.
 
The only jailbreak available for the OFFICIAL iOS 4 is for the 3G and Ipod 2G. There is no jailbreak currently available for the 3GS or the 4G.

There was a jailbreak available for the leaked "GM" version that was suppose to be the final release but as the checksums show, the "GM" is different than the one released yesterday.




Apparently there's an iOS 4.0 jailbreak out there already. People are selling jailbroken 3GSs with iOS 4.0 all over Craigslist here already.

If anyone knows who already developed one, I'd love to know where to find it.
 
Yeah! I got the same message and receive mine tomorrow morning too.

Maybe there is a handling fee Apple chose not to pay this time to have FedEx maintain the stock at their distribution points instead of completing shipment. I wouldn't want the liability of storing several hundred thousand easily stolen iPhones. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to recognize their packaging and origin.
 
Anyone called Apple to confirm info?

Has anyone called an Apple CSR to confirm this information???
 
Mine was picked up this morning at 6AM in Memphis, TN. UPS is delivering it, hopefully i get it on wednesday!!!
