This really pisses me off that people that ordered 10 days after me are already getting their phone shipped, while mine still sits "processing" for the last 2 weeks and now here it is 7pm on the west coast. First come, first served my a55!
Happy Ship Day everyone!! :)

Dude chill off him.. i don't see anything wrong with any of his posts.
Wahoo, went out for drinks, won 1st place in trivia and came back home to see my phone has shipped!!!! I preordered on the 6th and got the pebble Blue using Premier. I'm not going to say i was doubting that it would arrive by the 21st, but damn way to come thru in the end AT&T. Now i just have to camp out in my living room waiting for my phone to arrive tomorrow 
FYI, still no email at all from at&t about it, but i have tracking # i got on at&t web site, i do not see a charge on my CC yet, but i do see my out standing balance has gone up by the amount of the phone even though it does not show pending charge yet.

I don't think I will ever pre order a phone again. I have a problem. I think I'm a little obsessed with this whole back order thing. I ordered mine on the 6th like at 3:00am CST and it still says back ordered. It's driving me nuts. I just need it to ship already. I know I know a little overboard but it's true.....LOL
I'm with you! gotta wonder, since it clearly states in writing on your receipt, barring delays of some kind (which there isn't), those of us that ordered first are supposed to get them tomorrow. If not, that to me is false advertising and there should be reprecussions against at&t. A partial refund, free upgrade status, something.
Boom! I got shipping info finally. Looks like I'm on track for tomorrow by 3pm as well. Keep your heads up guys; I preorder on the 6th at 11am. I bet we are all good to go, its just taking some people longer to see shipping details for some odd reason. If you preordered on day one, I'd keep your hopes up--I think you'll see it tomorrow too.
I felt the same way, until mine finally changed. I have been too obsessed, but sometimes anticipation is half the fun!

I don't think the white ones will be going out. Its not that we aren't seeing shipping info its that our orders still say backorder! All other ppl had theirs update to processing.
Ordered 2 Blue on 6/6 @ 12:16am EST.
Just received tracking number and says delivery Jun 21, 2012 by 3:00 PM.
No charge to my CC yet.

For those of you who are upset that your phone hasn't shipped yet and you placed your order before others who have received shipping notices...just relax. (I know, easier said than done.) : )
First of all...the order that FedEx labels are generated have no difference on delivery. It doesn't matter who ordered first or second or fiftieth....these things are getting loaded on trucks by the thousands. So while I understand you may want to take "first come first served" literally....it doesn't really work that way. They aren't going I courier them to your doorstep one at a time in the order you placed your order.
What I think "first come first served" means is this:
Assume they have x number of phones ready to ship. Let's say that number is 1,000 (I have no idea what the number is.) I believe the pull a list of the first 1,000 people who pre-ordered, and build shipping labels, and start smacking labels on the 1,000 phones. I bet that there are many folks running around the warehouse with a stack of labels, just sticking them on boxes -- until they run out of labels. So now...the first 1,000 people who ordered, now have phones ready to go.
Then...perhaps a Fed-Ex truck arrives and grabs a couple of pallets of them. Maybe it takes several Fed-Ex trucks to come get everything that is ready to go. Either way...tonight...there will be many MANY small AT&T boxes moving around the Fed-Ex eco-system.
Then...there is the data entry part. I don't know how it happens...maybe it is manual data entry, or maybe it is a bar code scanner, but someone has to update each account to reflect status and shipping info. Now my assumption (and this is just an assumption) is that this is happening in parallel to and even after the shipping piece. Some underpaid AT&T employees are now going through stacks of shipping paperwork and updating accounts. What order the updates happen is probably purely random. Maybe they won't even get all the updates done tonight...who knows.
The point is...there is ALOT going on...and I guarantee they aren't doing them one at a time, only processing them in the order of purchase. They are doing them in truckloads --- in likely whatever order naturally occurs.
So what this tells me is that you should actually be happy to see people who ordered after you getting notices, since that should further reassure you that your in that first batch.
That's just my random thoughts on the topic.
I might be entirely wrong. Or not.
