Expected wait time for delivery?

[avonord]

I ordered mine at 10:30 this morning. What's the expected wait time for delivery? Any insider information?

[ddemchuk]

My CSR said two to five business days, and that deliveries are done by UPS.

What did they tell you?

I ordered mine from Fido and they said it should ship in 3-5 business days. They said UPS, so I asked them to ship it to my work address.

Meanwhile, at least one guy said he was told he should have it by Tuesday.

Either way, I'll be happy as long as I get it next week.

That's what I was told too. But that's assuming they have enough phones in stock. I like to know whether the dates are realistic from an insider.

I asked if the white 16 GB one I ordered (from Fido) was actually in stock, and they said yes it was. This was at 9:50 am.

Anyone know whether we will receive a shipping notice on email or whether we can see the status online?

I ordered mine around 3pm today (16GB) and they said to call if it wasn't in by Wednesday.

You can check status online. Apparently your phone number is your tracking number until UPS updates. Probably best to phone fido in a few days and get the new tracking number.

Where do you check this online? I can't find this on Fido's site.

Or is this only for Rogers?

Ordered the white 16GB iPhone at 11:20am. She said they had a lot in stock and said I would get it in 3-5 days. Not bad. I thought a couple of weeks or later. Just wanted to get the 6 gig data plan right away so I can use it with my 1st gen iPhone, which she said it was ok to do so.

I called Rogers around 7PM eastern and they supposedly still had a decent stock. i ordered a white iPhone and the rep said 3 to 5 business days. which is doable for me

[avonord]

Yea.. I called at 10 something, and they said they still have plenty of stock. It's the stores that ran out of stocks.

Has anyone who ordered at around 9am on launch day got confirmation that the phone has shipped and can get the tracking number?

[rye&ginger]

Rogers uses a fulfillment company who then ships via UPS. So the order goes from Rogers to the fulfillment company, who are likely the 'warehouse' for Rogers and where the phones are physically, and then to UPS. Might take until Monday for UPS to even pick it up as I’m not sure they will pickup on the weekend.

Rep told me 3-5 days, ordered today.
