Yeah.... we are screwed by UPS! There is no UPS flight out of ICN on Saturday and they only seem to fly to Sunday-Friday. So, it looks like UPS lied to us when it said "Delivers Mon Nov 3". Can't see how it's going to get from ICN to our cities in 24 hours if it leaves ICN on Sunday night.

But, I guess getting hosed by UPS for a couple of days is still better than "Delivers Nov 17-24" Still sucks though.... got all excited about Monday :(

However I believe as is typical they skipped because UPS servers are busy on this launch day or it happens sometimes, and our phones are really on that flight I and others found. So We will probably soon see if it is right as something may show up after it arrives (UPS99) in Anchorage in hour

this is flight a bunch of us Korea stop over phones found: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS99/history/20171103/1325Z/RKSI/PANC

Still no worries about it making to you by Monday. If it leaves ICN on Sunday morning, it is still Saturday night here. It has time to get to UPS Hub in Louisville early Monday morning (12-3 AM) and still make it to you for Monday delivery.

Got mine in hand. Working on getting it activated through Sprint, which is proving to be a BEAR. Keeps giving me activation server is temporarily unavailable. Has done this for an hour.

It’s so close! Will give those AT&T servers a chance to cool down :p
 
First post from the iPhone X! Mine was available for pickup in Sparks, NV when it opened today at 10:00 am! I did a clean install because I have so many apps I don’t use. So far everything has worked wonderfully. I am so impressed by this phone and it is some much more impressive in person than online.

Awesome glad to hear it
 
I am now regretting not having set my delivery option to pick up at UPS CC.
Today's local delivery takes a bit longer than a usual day... it's 3:34 PM EDT
 
Yeah it took me probably a dozen tries. Plus I had to set up as a new device first so I could update to iOS 11.1 before I could restore to my backup.

I got my iPhone X delivered about 12:15 est. activated with new SIM immediately on AT&T. Your mileage may vary. Was a super easy upgrade process. Forgot about just moving the SIM to save activation fee. I’ll call AT&T and they will waive the fee like they have done every year for me.

I have been trying to activate my phone since 1:00. It is not working, such a bummer to have the phone but I can't do anything but look at it.

Doh! Totally missed that AT&T will charge an activation fee, unless you swap SIMs??
