According to John Legere on Twitter all shipping estimates are correct. Looks like most of us will be getting our phones on Friday.
I placed my order around 6am ET and have a ship date of between 11/3-11/10 (SG 64gb). It would be nice to receive it on the 3rd or 4th as I'm going away on vacation that Sunday. I just hope for a $1,000 device, T-Mobile requires a signature for delivery. I don't want UPS to leave the phone sitting at my door for almost a week. Although I may just have it held at a local UPS Store.
I was able to order two $0 down. Jumping from a 7 and 7 Plus.

Just got a text from tmo stating “Free T-Mobile Msg: Thanks for your order! Supply is very limited and no shipping estimate is currently available for your T-Mobile order SXXXXXXXX. Check out http://t-mo.co/tmo_check_order for updates to your shipping estimate and status while your order processes” I ordered and had confirmation by 2:57am eastern. Not sure what to expect come next Friday. Ordered 64gb silver through regular jump
Just received a text from tmo:
“Free T-Mobile Msg: Thanks for your order! Supply is very limited and no shipping estimate is currently available for your T-Mobile order. Check out for updates to your shipping estimate and status while your order processes”

I have an 11/10 delivery from Apple, but could get an earlier from Tmo right now. I would cancel, but had $700 in Apple gift cards. Have a feeling my Apple will move up in shipping. But we shall see.
My confirmation e-mail had delivery estimate of Nov 2-3, but when I check order status on t-mo's site it says "no shipping estimate" there as well. I'm about 75% optimistic it'll hit that window, but won't count on it until I see their site say the same thing as my e-mail.
I submitted my order at 340 and it said Nov 2-3. Even when I check the order status on my account, it still shows the shipping as Nov 2-3
Got the same text. I ordered at 3:45 so was always skeptical of the 11/2-3 ship date. This text seems to be going out to everyone regardless of when they ordered so that tells me T-Mob has yet to reconcile orders with launch inventory or don't know what inventory they will actually get from Apple for launch day. I think this happens every year. I know it was a problem with the iPhone 6 where all the cellcos promised launch inventory they didn't have and then had to "caution" customers later that day.
I've got another phone on order @ Apple for Nov 17-24 ordered at 3:11. I'm betting the Apple order comes in first but I'd love to be wrong.
I did not. I received an order confirmation but that did not have an estimated ship date. Only the online "Thanks for your order" order confirmation page after check out stated a 11-2/11-3 ship date.
Did you (or anyone else reading this) get an email with a confirmation number? Would be a good data point to have to understand who might actually get an X on launch day.
Same for me, just hoping it would be sometimes in November, doesn’t have to be next week for me.
I did. Its the "Your new device order has been placed" email with the order number and ship dates.
Edit: Mine was ordered at 345
If it helps any, my online order page is not specific about shipping date:
I got the text. So you might be good to go. I ordered a few minutes after you.
If my order were to get stretched out past say 1-2 weeks I would consider cancelling it and waiting until next fall for the next gen. Part of the excitement of getting the X for me is getting it on launch day or within a week or so. Anything after, meh.
