So guys i preordered and got an arrival date for this friday but the Apple order status page is stuck on "preparing to ship". Is this normal?

Yes, it's normal. Your phone is probably processing through the system. Apple doesn't change it to shipped until a large block of phones have made it to the US and been split up for their final destination.
 
So I start impulse shopping when I get bored and right now I see the Magsafe charger in stock at my local Apple store. Someone please convince me that I don't need it...

If you owe money on any of your credit cards, you don't need it. If you don't, you might like it.
 
People...they’re sitting in Louisville in the large shipping containers. Tonight or tomorrow night they’ll break them down, your package will receive it’s arrived at Louisville scan, and shortly thereafter as it’s loaded on a plane to be sent to your region, it’ll get the Louisville departure scan. Chill chill out!

Nice I am only an hour from Louisville.

mine is still stuck at "Departed from Facility: Anchorage, AK, United States" since Monday night :/

TBH it’ll probably scan in tonight or tomorrow, head out to your area Thursday evening, and be at your local hub that morning. They move stuff at UNGODLY speeds. I’ve had my phone in China the night before launch and still got it on time.
 
I am so hype for new MacBooks, preferably one that isn't 2x slower then my iPhone like my 2018 Air.

Yes! I love my MacBook Pro but the keyboard has been replaced so many times because of the stupid design flaw and I am soooo over it. I need a better keyboard but been holding out hoping the new one has smaller bezels and the new processor blows everything outta the water!

We are in the same boat, my scheduled delivery is for Oct 28-30 , no movement at all from UPS or Apple, I was also hoping I would have received it a bit early, but from the looks of things, it set for Oct 28-30 :-(
 
Verizon sent me a new Sim card, Inserted into my old phone XS, and will now place it into my new Sim free iPhone 12 Once it arrives. Tech-support said this was OK. Tech-support also said that I didn’t have to do so I could’ve just use my old Sim card for my two-year-old phone and placed it in to the new iPhone 12
Did the new SIM card look the same as your old one when you replaced it?

Wait... when do we get new MBP? I'm dying to replace my wonderfully ancient 2013 MBP. I almost went for the 2019 magic keyboard release but I'm holding out for the new ones supposedly set to be released by the end of 2020?
 
You lucky son of a biscuit... getting 2 phones on 10/23! LOL. No but really, that kind of sucks. Good luck off loading it... Or you can just return it. I'd buy it from you if I could get it from you before by 10/29/2020 - I'm going away the weekend of 10/30/2020 - 11/02/2020 and my delivery window is 10/30/20-11/4/20. My luck with preorders sucks butt.

Also, what capacity did you go with?
128G Blue Pro

My delivery date is Oct 28-30. I was hoping to get it before then. I’m impatient. Nothing updated in Apple or UPS.
