Pre ordered on 10/7 received confirmation but still hasn't shippedI

Question

I pre ordered my phone on 10/7 at 2:10am(central zone) and received my confirmation at 2:43am but it still hasn't shipped.  Does anyone know if there is a way to find out if I'm getting my phone no later than 10/14 , after all thats why i woke up at 2:10 last Friday to pre-order.

Have you checked the status of the order by way of the confirmation email? I got a confirmation email but somehow my order was dumped out of the system....blah I can't get over it.
Anyways, I knew mine was eff'd up this morning when I clicked the 'check your order status' link, entered my order number, and got something to the effect of "we had a problem processing your order, please contact us".
If you don't have that, you're probably fine.
Funny story, I, also was getting that error when checking my order status. I was using my order number from the confirmation email, which was a 4 digit number and my last name. I was getting nervous, so I started trying different ways to look up the order status.
On the order status page it gives you three options to choose from when selecting which method you used to make the order
1-Verizonwireless.com
2-Verizon Store
3-Over the phone.
Naturally, I was selecting the first method and receiving the error message, so I tried the second method. It then changed from asking for only an order number and last name to asking for an Ace number, last name and order location number.
I used my order number for the "ace number" field and the order location number that was given to me in the confirmation email.
When I tried that, this is what was displayed :
Order Number:
xxxx
Tracking Number:
Courier :
Status:Your pre-order will deliver by 10/14/2011
Ship Date:
Also my CC was finally charged just a few hours ago. I'm confident my phone will arrive friday. Verizon has never let me down so far, but i'm going to keep my fingers crossed.
Hope this helps and we all receive our beautiful iPhones Friday or Thursday if we're lucky.
