Might as well get one started. If you are showing a mythical November delivery like I am, let's keep in touch here, shall we? Let's share our experience, delight in the irregularity of our updates and offer our love and support through the tough times.

Here are some notes to help track orders:

Apple will automatically add your phone with it's serial number in your support profile. You can see it here:

You can look up the week of manufacture and factory here: http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html or

It's like some sort of weird time warp where 10 minutes becomes 2 months!
You may be on to something. We need Morgan Freeman to explore this pre-order wormhole.

I am hoping they send it sometime in October. This happened to me with my 6 Plus in 2014 and it came much sooner than expected.

That's what I imagine. Once orders start to be cancelled or declined the dates will begin to tighten up. We might not see any movement for a couple days. My bank account hasn't even been pinged yet.

My bank account has not pinged yet either. Good luck!

I was in this club, but then I cancelled my 7+ Jet Black and ordered a 7+ Black instead. That one is showing Oct 4 - 10, so I'm much happier!

I really want the Jet Black or I would do the same thing. I guess living vicariously through YouTube unboxing videos and reviews will get me through the wait. It's just a phone right... *sweating uncontrollably*

I'm set on the Jet Black but I've read that the pictures of the Black don't do it justice, that it is really black.

I'm good, because I was worried about fingerprints and scratches on the glossy black. Plus, I'll prob have a case on it, and all I really care about is that the front bezel is black.

Man, it is so tempting to switch to the Black. There's just something about seeing a delivery date that gives one hope.

No but I feel like it will be the end of the week before anything changes and even that might be just a definitive November date.
[doublepost=1473733049][/doublepost]
Any updates from anyone with a November ship date? Mine still says November.
Curiously though, if you look at the website, it still shows a ship date of "November." Surely that can't be accurate after four full days of orders.

Spoke with an Apple rep last night to see if there was any information of when I'd get a definite date range. She had nothing to offer. Le sigh...

I was in November since I ordered yesterday. I checked the reservation page this morning and I will be going to pick up my 256 Black IPhone 7+ in a hour. Beats waiting over a month.
