Yeah, before I traded in my Mini Cooper this spring, Mini of Wesley Chapel is where I had it serviced. Meanwhile, UPS is still showing my phone in JAX. Do they get trucked from there to Tampa?
If your original delivery date was not tomorrow you ain't getting it tomorrow.still no support profile or ups after card was charged and status was updated to preparing for shipmentwas hoping for tomorrow but starting to doubt that.

No change in status after phone got a departure scan in Louisville at 3:22pm. Destination is NJ. Is it possible that my phone just didn't get scanned upon arrival at the local hub?
Wow. My CC still isn't charged and my order is still processing.
Let's share some crazy release day stories:
When the 3GS came out, I was going to be in Vegas for the release, so I pre-ordered and had it shipped to my hotel (I think Bally's). Since I had used my wife's upgrade (and she was flying to Vegas the next night due to work conflicts), I couldn't actually activate the phone until she arrived, or else it would de-activate hers (you had to activate your phone with the number it was sold to, then you could swap SIM cards).
For the 4, my phone was delivered a day early (6/23 instead of 6/24), so that was kind of fun. Only time that ever happened to me.
When the 6 came out, I was going to be at a rental beach house, and by then they got smart and only let you ship to your AT&T billing address (assuming you had AT&T, of course), so, knowing that, I changed my billing address to the address of the rental house on the AT&T site, placed my order, then, after the phone had shipped, I set my address back to my actual address on the AT&T site.
Looking back, any number of things (shipping delays, mostly) could have really messed up plans.
Anyone else have any launch day stories to share?

Mine also left at 1:05 pm Ky not scan in PA yet usually they scan it at 11 pm like my Apple Watch preorder I did two years ago
I am in Louisiana. Mine shows it departed at 2:30pm from Louisville. Still scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Guess mine will be scanned as arrived in New Orleans late tonight. And then from there to my destination.

I can't wait to get back to an iPhone again. Only a few more hours (18 hours or so anyway) of waiting! Case and phone delivering tomorrow.
Phone and watch both sitting in Queens, NY waiting to go to my local depot. Hope there's no issues with me being able to pick up both packages tomorrow.
