I had the same issue. I ordered it yesterday and paid the $10 expecting the phone to get here in 2-3 business days. Please let me know when the phone gets to you. Thanks!

If you odered it from Apple.com expect to receive it in 3 weeks. It can be earlier but who knows.

I would call Apple to get a refund on that 10 dollars. I called an Apple.com rep and he said that expedited shipping is currently unavailable for iP4.

Thanks! I called up Apple and the rep waived my $10 fee. Now I'm waiting for the iPhone 4 to get here! I hope it comes sooner.

I called up a local Apple Store, and they said that the iPhone 4 was in stock, so I cancelled my online order and picked one up. This is definitely the best purchase I have ever made! 🙂

All Apple iPhone shipping appears "expedited". My wife's took four days: China to Los Angeles via Anchorage, customs and Memphis -- and that was their standard shipping.

Based on our recent experience (two iPh4s, two bumpers, all from China) they shipped a week or more earlier than promised and arrived three days before stated by the FedEx tracking data.

If I go into the store and they have it, can they cancel my online order from the store or do you have to cancel first online and then go to the store? My ship date is Aug 13th and I'd rather not wait, but i don't want to get screwed over and lose "both" phones

@Neg

I live in South Florida and I originally had an order with Apple that was scheduled for delivery on 8/16. I canceled it and walked into the Boca Raton Town Center Mall Apple Store and they had 'plenty' of telephones in stock. You will have much better chance of getting a phone earlier if you walk into an authorized iP4 retailer in Florida.

I've been able to log on in a store and cancel an on-line order myself using their computers. Clearly need to do that first so your upgrade eligibility is restored.

Best would be to call your local store and ask if that can be done, since it may be easier in some stores than others.

You go to the store and meet with the sales rep, order the phone and then cancel your online order using one of their macs. That is what I did.
