iPhone 5 Pre-Order Delivery Date

I pre-ordered iPhone 5 32 GB black CDMA version, at about 7 central time this morning, and website says it will be delivered on October 5. If this is true, I am extrememly unhappy. Could it arrive sooner than that time?


Thanks

I'm so disturbed by this UPS thing. On the order page where you decide if you want it delivered, there was no indication of who would be doing the shipping this time (I looked, because I'm paranoid about this as it is). In my experience of ordering with Apple, they use FedEx or another carrier who delivers very early in the day, even to residential addresses.


My home UPS delivery is very reliable, but it reliably comes between 6:30PM-9PM, when I'm at work. I have to plan my orders so that they arrive on my day off if I want to ever get them. If I'm to trust my tracking info, this delivery is not being given any special early delivery handling.


If I had even the slightest reason to worry that the phone wouldn't be given early morning delivery as usual, I would have been happy to wait at a store at 6AM or whatever, I just like to be given all the facts when I make pre-order decisions. Looks like I'll be spending any future release days on a sidewalk.
