Here in Mpls they have plenty of the 256 and 64 in space grey, but not what I want, which is silver 64.

Wow!! Just check and 5 Apple stores around me have all configs available!!

Soooo. I got up at 3am for nothing!!!!
:mad::mad::mad:
 
For those who have extended shipping times, check your local stores inventory. I found several in stock today at local stores. I guess the reports of production issues, were greatly exaggerated.

PS. Only 56 posts away from 10,000 post in this thread.
 
My phones (already shipped) finally changed to Nov 6th for delivery. One has been to several different places after landing at Anchorage and the other one has not been scanned since it arrived there yesterday.
I'm sure they will both get here on Monday though.
 
It looks like UPS has added a special flight from ICN today. UPS67 goes ICN-ANC-SDF leaving ICN at 10:48 EDT. Usually UPS99 is the only ICN-ANC flight but doesn’t operate on saturdays.

I think that those of us that still show our phones stuck in Seoul should see movement in a couple hours. It’ll get to SDF in time to make the Sunday night journey to the destination airport for Monday delivery.

I think you are right. The other leg of the journey was not shown til a little while ago. I agree our phones (the majority of the Korean tour not leaving Korea yet) is likely on this. Why a few made the journey yesterday to Ontario California I do not understand. But having a leg to (SDF) Louisville Ky (the main UPS hub) does mean we will easily see our phones Monday as promised by UPS which has not changed even with the layover in Korea!
 
Guys I cancelled my 17-24 order pick up today at my mall for a 130 pick up time

my phone is set for deliver on Monday and there is no availability anywhere near either. I'll just have to manage to wait a couple more days.

For all who still have to wait receiving your order and are still able or allowed to cancel it, you can purchase online in Apple store apps and choose store pick up. I just did this for my other line for today pick up. This is subject to the store supply availablity. Good luck!!

Update: Stocks are depleting very quick after my announcement in Apple stores in my area. Amazing :)

I was able to do the same thing here as well. I have a 10 am appointment to pick up my phone at the local Apple Store.
 
Anyone know if I preorder the TMobile GSM model for pick up, I can ask for the Verizon model in store when I go to pick it up?

Will the Apple store let me have the Verizon model without providing any account details like they request online?
 
When I was setting it up and doing the compare between true tone on and off it looked much better on

off was more bright and blue, distracting. true tone on was more natural and toned down
Same experience
True Tone off the screen looks like my TV set, cold, electric
With it on it appears like a paper document or picture frame on my desk
Screen looks painted on.
 
Any movement with your phone? Mine still shows it sitting in Korea.
Looks like mine didn’t make the second flight out of Korea. Now been sitting there going on the second day! No way it will show up Monday now!

Anybody else still sitting in Korea getting screwed by UPS????

Thanks a lot UPS!!!! Great job :mad:

Has any one been able to cancel an IUP preorder phone after CC was charged and then went and just picked up a phone?
Yes. Some people had some release issues so just cancelled order and the got another phone.

Interesting enough I turned it off this morning. waking up it was too yellow, in the morning I wanted a more cooler color. I think it needs to do a better job adjusting the temp. I will probably turn it back on this evening. Maybe I should just stick with night shift which is basically doing the same thing
 
I’m sure UPS has lost my phone.... sitting TWO DAYS now in Korea with a promised Monday delivery day. No way it will make it now.

What makes me furious is my local Apple store has one but there’s no way to cancel this iUP phone and go pick it up

Now that UPS has lost my phone in Korea I imagine it’s goinf to be a very long time for UPS to admit they lost it, report to Apple and then get Apple to send me another one.

This crap didn’t happen when FedEx was used.

So... darn... mad I’m not getting the phone Monday!

Thanks for nothing, UPS !!!
 
My order on the Upgrade Program (256GB SB on AT&T) was moved up from first week December - went unexpectedly to "Preparing to Ship" and then shipped yesterday! But...Apple says shipped 11/3 but "Delivers 11/13" and "Shipment in Transit - Delayed." This is for a device I am upgrading on the iUP from an existing iPhone 7 Plus. They seem to have prioritized these upgrades, indeed.

On UPS.com the last update in the tracking info says 8:36am 11/3 waiting for clearance agency release (see attached screen shot)

Anyone have any idea what this means on the UPS site? It's hard to tell when it will actually show up, between the Apple info and the UPS info.

Ironically, I could've walked into the Apple store today to get it - who would've thought...too late now, though...

Let’s not jump to conclusions. My phone is sitting in Korea on the tracking too but I don’t think we should automatically assume we know more than UPS does in terms of delivery dates.
 
I placed my order at 12:05am PST and got my email confirmation at 12:08am and received my phone today and even had it held at a UPS Store. I used the Apple App as well and I'm with AT&T and used the next program. Sorry I disagree with you.
Your still wrong
 
Nope. Totally screwed. Mine still shows last thing was Arrival at Icheon at 11/03 at 7:26pm. Nothing after that. DARN!

I can't believe these Bozos at UPS lost my iPhone!!!!!!!!
Still nothing?....mine bumped quite a bit over night. Looks like it went from Alaska, to Kentucky (cleared US customs there), Iowa, and now in Boise!
Sorry to hear about your delay.....hope it was a glitch and your phone is actually state side!

You have same arrival time as a number of us in Korea but so far on web and UPS app I cannot find movement after arrival in Korea hopefully it is usual glitches on busy day for. UPS??
....mine bumped quite a bit over night. Looks like it went from Alaska, to Kentucky (cleared US customs there), Iowa, and now in Boise!
Good Luck! Hope you have had some progress and your phone is state side!

Sometimes scans are off and weird during shipping. Like mine for example. Once it was delivered a lot for updated. During the process a sticker was placed on my package and it covered some of the barcode, so I think a lot of the automated scans just didn't happen, causing me to not see much along the way.

It stressful to say the least. But I do agree with you that a lot can happen that doesn't show up and UPS is really good at this stuff. I would keep faith as long as the delivery dates continues to say what you are expecting.
