I can’t figure out which plane my phones on but I have a departure time of 10:55am on 9/17 from China on Ups now so that’s exciting to see some activity on there now

How did you guys get a tracking number? I ordered off the apple website. Roughly 12:05. Silver 8+ 256 Verizon. My update is now "preparing to ship"

In sure I'll get a tracking number soon
 
Mine is still “processing” although the silicon case has been sent out to me today. Estimated delivery date is between September 25 and October 2nd, while I ordered on September 15 just like the rest of you. Hope to receive mine before September 28 as I leave for a city trip then :)
 
Any changes that you make after you finalize your order will cause that order to be cancelled and then you will have to place a new order - which means going to the "end of the line". It's just how it works.

I'm not sure that once you choose in-store that you can change it to home delivery now and get launch day delivery.

You best ask Apple about that.

lol. I know. But both products were available for home delivery on September 22nd. My plan was to cancel my store pick-up and re-order for home delivery.

I decided I was going to cancel and re-order but now the phone isn't available on launch day for home delivery so I'm leaving it how it is and will go to the store.
 
Only exception to the "99% will get their phone on launch day" rule is when there's a new color or an unusually high demand phone. Like last year's JetBlack. NO one got their phone on launch day for that one.

And even though Apple wisely gave themselves an extra month and a half to get ready for it - iPhone X will be utter mayhem too. Many won't get on launch day.

These preOrder threads usually generate 100-200 posts AN HOUR each year. They've only generated a 'few hundred' TOTAL since Friday.. 8/8+ launch has been very underwhelming. Most are waiting for X.
