Does having them routed to a UPS access point delay delivery? There is a UPS store a block from my office, and it would be much wearier for me to pick up from there instead of the CC.
Even though they put a disclaimer that it could delay delivery by 1 business day. When I have used the UPS store, it never delayed on me and was able to pick it up on the day it was promised. However, I personally prefer UPS CC over UPS Store.

How about some idle chatter while we wait for our flight?

How many are going to do the update to iOS 15 today (Monday) and how many are going to wait?

I will be updating all my devices whenever it goes live; I might as well get used to using it since it will be on my shiny new iPhone PM.
Ooooh, yay! Forgot about that! Will do tomorrow since I need to go to bed soon. 5:00 am comes early!

That’s after they drop off mine in Abilene. I’m glad my UPS center opens at 8 here.
Abilene. Probably the first stop for the really big UPS trucks and duel trailers, if not San Angelo. I know they don’t fly them into Lubbock, so I’ve been told, Lubbock gets like 1 UPS plane per day and it’s usually heavy freight and tires.

Really kind of amazing how UPS and FedEx do it.
I’ll watch the video about UPS and their WorldPort like I do every year at iPhone time.

This is the first time I am picking up my phone at the Apple Store….and now I kind of miss the anticipation of tracking my shipment. But every time, I miss my delivery, and I have to end up rushing to UPS , and waiting in line there. I figured I would save myself the aggravation this year

I wrote a poem to commemorate the occasion:


The night before pre-order, on my iPhone in bed,
Do I get the Pro Max, or the Pro instead?
The pre-order is set, I can now go to sleep,
But what of my 12, should I sell it or keep?

The day is here! I'm ready to order!
The app or website, which wait will be shorter?
Refreshing like mad, there's no time to waste,
The page finally loads, my order is placed!

Now to Mac Rumors, to share how I fared,
Only to find the prepared have despaired.
"The iPhone Upgrade Program has let me down!"
I'll try my luck at the Apple Store in town."

Next week on Wednesday the reviewers will drop,
Thoughts on the iPhone, a win or a flop?
What about colors? My choice I rethink.
Don't ask Justine; she always says pink.

Now a week later, the wait I can't stand,
I have a Pro Max right here in my hand.
The excitement wanes quickly, for now that I squint,
What the hell? Is that a green tint?

Back to MacRumors, "Is it only me?"
It's definitely there, we all can agree.
Maybe they'll fix it with a point one update.
"Is it software or hardware?" will be the debate.

This week is my favorite that's not holiday,
The kid in me can come out to play.
Few understand this, and yet we are proud,
The nerds, the geeks, the Mac Rumors crowd.
 
I searched via reference number and it would appear both iPhones are in UPS possession, but I can only see the last four digits of both packages.
