Some iPhone 3G S orders set to be delivered tomorrow (Update: not likely) {Engadget Mobile}

Jun 17th 2009 2:23AM Here is what I wrote at another site:

The plot thickens. After mine shipped it stated 6/17 for delivery. I knew that was impossible.

Later after it was in Hong Kong it showed 6/18. I felt that was more plausible, especially after I saw that later in the day it was in Anchorage. I was hopeful. Even later it showed it left Anchorage!

Now UPS has an exception (see below). It says the receiver requested a hold on delivery. I did not! I called UPS and they said it might have something to do with customs as they clear in Kentucky, not Anchorage.

I told her an alternate view. One where Apple is throwing its' weight around and telling UPS to hold all the iPhones until 6/19. She agreed that that is possible since Apple does so much business with UPS. So we will probably never know the real story.

Since I can post an image, here is the text from the UPS tracking:
