Has anyone who chose in-store pickup seen any status other than Processing? Also, have you seen your phone show up in the Support Profile?

I ordered in the first 20 to 30 minutes but chose in-store pickup. It still says Processing but says that my pickup time is 11:00 - 11:30 on 9/16 so I'm not worried about it. I'm assuming that my reservation is good to go. I'm just curious if anyone else who chose in-store pickup is seeing anything different?

Reviews are in on the 7/7+ - There is no question, if you got the jet black model you're going to want a case. This is from tech crunch with normal use. Glad I got matte black.
Yikes. I ordered matte black but got a case on Amazon that mimics jet black finish. I think I made the right decision but I always case my phones.

So the mystery has been solved--mine did NOT originate stateside. It's in Chek Lap Kok, HK, as of this morning. So I still get to have tracking fun! Wheeeeeeeee! :p anyone else who hadn't seen movement as of yesterday, check UPS MyChoice this morning and you may have a pleasant surprise (it's free, if you don't already have an account.)
Exactly where mine is also. and it is in my system profile so I have my serial number also

My 7+ JB 128 for ATT is still showing Oct 4-Oct 10... Even after ordering within 10 min of preorder.

Anyways hoping I get a bump soon!

Question, people who are able to track by reference are your orders already showing "preparing for shipment"? Or are orders that are still "processing" showing up in UPS as well? I've tried but it hasn't worked I'm assuming because it still in processing stage.

Mine's still in the 'processing' stage on the Apple website and it showed up in the UPS track by reference.

Has anyone who enrolled in the IUP for this preorder been able to change your order? I want to cancel my jet black and get the black, but I'm not sure how that would work with just recently enrolling in the program. And Apple won't even put me on hold. It just says "We can't take your call."

Order a matte black and sell the jb on day 1

Apple putting a disclaimer on its website about scratches on jet black models means it's going to be a big deal. The "black" iPhone 5 scratched like no other and there wasn't even a disclaimer on apples website about it. I got apples leather case. Protection in all the right places and thin and grippy enough to keep it "slim"

Link please?
Amazon--It is the spigen tough armor in jet black. Verified with spigen that it does mimic the finish. 15.99 plus free shipping. Looks like they have it for both models. Only bad doesn't ship til 23rd although they charged my acct today so maybe earlier??

Interesting. What exactly did you search in ups? Track by reference, mail innovation?, order number? What shipping dates did you put?

I did track by reference and put my phone number in. I originally got Sep. 26th - Oct. 3rd and that still shows up on Apple's end, but it shows the 16th as the delivery date on UPS's end.

I'm pretty confident that anyone who has a pickup in-store date of 9/16 will get it on that day. I heard that after a while, store pickup stopped being an option for some people. I'm assuming that they only had so many that were set aside for that option and once they had all been reserved, the option was no longer available. I had no trouble getting my last iPhone on launch day using the pickup in-store option.

I'm also assuming that the status of these phones won't budge until Friday when they are ready for pickup. I'm just curious if anyone else who is picking theirs up is seeing anything different. Mine isn't in my support profile either by the way. I was wondering if that is the case for everyone who chose this option.
