I personally DO think so, it could be a week or more, or it could be a day earlier than expected. Some other people said that in years past, it did happen but their delivery date didn't change until the moment it shipped. In other words, it will come as a surprise when one day it just ships even though it still said "Deliver by Date 11/15/2017" 5 minutes ago. But maybe Verizon will let us know early if our dates get moved up, they got better with other things, so one could hope. And the reason I'm optimistic about being moved up is because wait times even if you order today are STILL less than a month from launch day on the 3rd. People on the Apple forum are having their dates moved up dramatically, although its apple directly it still means they're pumping out phones it seems. We all remember the nightmare that was the iPhone 6 and 6+ launch and how far back people's delivery dates were pushed back compared to the X release right now.
