iPhone 6 Plus pre-order delivery estimates

I'm hoping someone with a crystal ball might be able to answer this question. I pre-ordered the iPhone 6 plus(Space Gray 64g) at 5:00am, on September 12th, from Apple.com. I'm still showing an estimated delivery time of October 13-20th. I've previously always pre-ordered, by phone, through At&T and had my phone delivered on launch day. Has anyone ever had their estimated delivery date "moved up? Or has anyone had it moved up on this iPhone launch? Is anyone getting tired of Apple never having enough product or underestimating the potential demand? Maybe it's just me but it's getting old. Any genuine thoughts? I'm new at this waiting 4 weeks for delivery thing. Many thanks from CA.

@shadofax31pearson. Thank you for that link as I hadn't yet seen it. I'm still struck by the last paragraph but that's a topic we've all discussed a hundred times over. It is good news that Apple will be ramping up production of the 6 plus and I only hope it gets phones out to customer's soon. The 6 appears to be available in many Apple stores and has a shorter wait when ordering through the carrier. With that in mind, it's obvious the concentration needs to be on the production of the 6 Plus. I'm sorry you don't have an update today but hopefully it's promising news that a fellow Sprint customer has a phone on the way. Sprint and AT&T sure do need a load of phones!!!!

@pntsoxfan64. It should move into Shipped within the next day or so, with those dates you provided. That's great news. You know, my iPhone 5 held up pretty well until my 6 Plus was delivered. It was deemed to be a lemon, from the day I received it, but it held up. I've been reading of so many whose 5's are on their last leg! Maybe I just got lucky, who knows?!? But I'm glad you have good news on your end!

@DeAndre1980. It's a great thing what you're doing with and for those kids in Little League. And when you love it it's even more worthwhile, right? Well, you know I'm waiting for the day when you have breaking news...that your phone is on its way! Lol! But I'm glad you're no longer constantly checking the site and keeping yourself/mind occupied. Your phone will be delivered and hopefully soon. Until then, I'll just be hanging out here waiting with you and the others!

@Nedre. Great news! This is hopefully a sign that AT&T is finally getting some dang phones to ship! And you even got an earlier than expected delivery date! Ok folks, like Nesee said, check your status if you ordered through AT&T. Fingers crossed more good news will be coming to this thread over the next few days!!! Keep us posted Nedre!

@BigMikeMacdaddy , thanks so much, I'm so excited! Check your email today. I'm in Delaware if that helps. I hope you get great news today!

I Just checked UPS and no info yet On my tracking. My phone is being shipped to the ATT store because of work not knowing if I'd be home when they delivered. My shipping date was for Nov. 5-14. So soon! You should get your email too!
