Will the iPhone 5 be delivered on the 21st, or shipped?

Has anyone pre ordered the iphone before? If so was it delivered on the date that they said or was it shipped out that day. Basically I want to know if i pre order tomorrow, will Apple ship it out on the 21st, or acutally be at my door on the 21st?

Shipped.

I actually researched this question because I plan on pre ordering it also. It should be at your door on the release date or maybe even earlier.

When I ordered my iPhone 4 it was pretty much the same thing, you could order it on friday at midnight and it was supposed to be released the next friday. I actually got mine in the mail on the next wednesday, two days early which was pretty cool. I ordered mine this morning so I'm really hoping I get it early too.

  • Why hasn't my iPhone 5 been marked as Shipped? I pre-ordered with At&t the first day & it said it would arrive the 21st. I have received one email saying my items are being proceed to be shipped, this was 3 days ago. I keep checking the site to see if they updated with a tracking number.what's going on? I haven't received an email saying it's been delayed or anything. I'm very anxious.
  • Why do 20th century born people think they had a better childhood than us 21st century borns? People born before 2000 think they had a good childhood. How stupid are they? The 20th century was the most violent century of all times so you can get killed or hurt back then. As a 2000 born, I think I can easily say the 2010s dominates the '90s, the '90s wasn't good anyway. The '90s sitcoms were stupid, the '90s music sounded like a man farting on a public restroom, movies were boring, games were stupid, no iphones/social media existed, etc.
  • Why do 20th century born people hate the 21st century due to 'social media' when they're the idiots who created it in the first place? As a 2000 Born, I just learned that people born before (20th century borns) are very critically and mentally-impaired when it comes to nostalgia. These dummies now say that my birth century sucks because of social media and the iPhone invention. Will guess what? These were invented by 20th century borns and they're the reason why my birth century is hated.
