Been on "preparing" status since 11:00 am CDT. So about 6 hours. I would love to see shipping status today.

Just got a text and email with shipping information. Should be delivered tomorrow. UPS picked them up in San Jose, to be delivered to me tomorrow in San Jose. Just texted my friend who is our UPS driver at work my tracking numbers. I'll be his first stop in the morning. And he'll have a six pack of his favorite beer waiting for him in my office refrigerator.

Win/Win for the both of us. Unfortunately my son will have to wait until he gets out of school to get his.

Does anyone know if UPS will be requiring a signature? It doesn't say in my tracking info on ups.com

I ordered an AT&T onyx black unit at 12:05 am on "opening day and mine still says "preparing" both on the website and automated message. Leave Friday early AM for a 7 day business trip. Hope I have my Note 8 by Thursday.

We ordered my wife's Note 8 in store on the 25th. We were not given the option of having it delivered just pick up in-store. Tried checking the satus on line and it told me to call. Called and just got an automated "order is "preparing". IF the delivery oders go out early what are the chances the pick up order are avalible early?

I believe that's required due to cost.

none at all. they are stuck at telling us we won't have it by the 15th but they are favoring those who ordered online it seems. I'll never do business with them again after this

I hope your Moto X Pure has been as reliable as mine. I've read the horror stories of having to deal with sending units back for service. Lately my camera has been acting strange (not opening, freezing up) but a quick restart fixes that. Good luck on your Note!

my moto x pure hasn't been plagued by some of the camera and bluetooth issues some have had but the battery in the phone is on it's last legs. I barely make 2 hours of screen on time. My screen brightness is always at 0%. Excited for my note 8. If reviews are right, i might get 8 hours screen on time if i tweek the right settings.

You also have to keep in mind that they ordered before you. Pre orders went live at midnight on the 24 or 9pm on the west coast on the 23rd. So if you went in to the store at 10am how many pre orders do you think they already had ? It's not favoring one over the other. It's giving people who ordered first a first shot at getting it.

I haven't received any kind of shipping notice from BB but I signed into my FedEx account and I can see the label. Shipping Priority Overnight and I will have it tomorrow by 10:30 a.m. Verizon model ordered Aug. 26th.
