Great goodness, mine has shipped. Just now. UPS is bringing this one.
I was told by FEDEX you CAN NOT electronically sign or pre-sign for this delivery.
No. I read from two orders. The UPS shipment was the accessories. FedEx is handling the phone. My enthusiasm kicked-in. I am sorry for the confusion.UPS?
Hopefully, for the final time, I rechecked (after first grabbing some coffee) and it is indeed UPS. The tracking number is in the earliest stages of activation. UPS Ground 2; as 'amtrucker22' has just posted. We must've been placed in the same shipping channel. The plot thickens.UPS?
There is a "customize delivery" button, and after that a "sign for package" button. I've used it before, but I wouldn't necessarily use it for a purchase of this high a value. Whoever you talked to at FedEx doesn't know their system very well.
Folks still seem to be confusing order staging at the nearest hub for 8/19 delivery, and are using the initial shipment status as a starting point for one or two day delivery. Shame on carriers for allowing next day delivery options, since understandably gives the customer the perspective they will get their order a day earlier.
Carriers should not offer next day or two day- IF they are really staging devices at local hubs for 8/19 delivery to customers.

So my Fedex tracking updated now says
8/17/2016 - Wednesday
2:33 am Shipment information sent to FedEx
1:33 am At local FedEx facility LINWOOD, PA
They bumped my delivery time from Friday 4:30 p.m. to now Friday at 8 p.m.
Hear, hear. It's a novelty in my case. I've been with Verizon since late 2006. The shipment of phones with Verizon through the years has been exclusively via FedEx up until now. UPS beats FedEx to-the-door here also. I hope that you enjoy your new smartphone.Mine is coming UPS as well. This is a first for a phone ordered through Verizon. I am cool with it though. The UPS truck usually comes before the FedEx truck in my area.

I am curious if it will be the 18th or the 19th...
I have someone at my house until around 1ish on Friday but no one will be there Thursday.
