Just placed an order with AT&T. Chose standard shipping and the status is "preparing to ship". We shall see
 
This is horrifying. I can't decide if it would be a good idea for me to order through AT&T or not. The reps have been telling me all different things!

Yeah, they have been really sketchy on chat and like to dance around questions about inventory

How soon after you placed your order did it change to Preparing to Ship?

EDIT
My order with AT&T changed to preparing to ship, too! Only took about 30 minutes.

I did choose expedited shipping, but I doubt that affected how quickly it went to the preparing status since standard shipping orders seem to be moving just as quickly.

Ordered mine at 10:30 am EST and have "Preparing to Ship" in my status. I ordered with Standard Shipping.
 
I am an idiot. I have an order with apple, Best Buy and now AT&T. AT&T keeps saying you can see the ship date but its empty for me but it says preparing to ship. But when I order my iPhone through at&t it says preparing to ship for weeks before it ships so thats really no comfort. lol. Oh well. They will eventually come from someone I just hope they don't all ship the same day!!! Hahaha

Looks like you got your order in at AT&T just in time, they are no longer available to "add to cart"

For what its worth, my order from 8:30 AM EST this morning with AT&T with expedited shipping is still showing "In Progress".
 
Wow thats crazy. Literally an hour ago they were quoting Feb 22nd or something. Crazy. Looks like everyone has these things except Apple. lol.

Right? I've been keeping a steady eye on Best Buy, Target, and istocknow.com so I thought it was a miracle when these were saying 1/6. Didn't hesitate to order.
