So a run down of all the posts thus far
pre orders are being fulfilled, not too many posts from angry pro order customers any more so we can assume they're getting their phones
The larger the size of the phone ordered the sooner you will receive it pretty much anything over 16gb
They will send out whichever phone they have even if purchased more than one. So you may receive one at a time instead of both together
Lately the white is scarce but it's always back and forth
9/21 - 9/22 orders are being taken off BO and even receiving tracking
Once backorder changes from 1 to 0 takes anywhere from an hour to a few hours to 48 hours for shipping info to be sent
Usually ships with 2 day shipping a lot more UPS right now but FedEx is also used
Processing means nothing as well as pending shipment the only thing that is actual progress is back order changing from 1 to 0 then tracking number that's when you are close to having your phone
I ordered 16gb white and 16gb black 9/25 "pending shipment" back order still 1. Its 17 business days for me so there's still time. Anyone ordering 16gb phones in October don't expect them for a few weeks. Remember business days that mean Monday through Friday.
