Just received an interesting e-mail that seems to hint that my Premier order won't be delivered until AFTER May 6......

Anyone know if the Lumia or any past Sunday launch phones had a similar e-mail but still received their orders early?
I received the same exact email. My impatience is strong today...
It's called Under Promise and Over Deliver. This happened to me when I preordered my Galaxy Note.
just got the email as well fingers still crossed for the 4th

It's a good way for ATT to receive some "positive attention". To be fair, when you purchased the phone, it even said the shipment date is may 2nd.
I received the same email. I better be receiving it on Friday.
Its impossible for Sunday delivery. So it's Friday or Saturday!
For what its worth the premier rep that I talked to said the phone would be delivered on friday, she even gave me a cut off date in which to preorder by to have it by friday.
Well according to the email it's not so obvious that they will ship it before.
It says as early as May 6th aka not before that.

I got the same email above, and I read "as early as may 6th" meaning I won't see it before May 6th. There is a whole different context when compared to "on or before may 6th"
Thread closed as there is already a Shipping thread opened.

The S4 is launching Friday for AT&T (with actual sale to begin Satirday) and starting tomorrow you can officially set appointments. My store opens at 10am and I will set my appointment for then. Appointments get priority service even if there are 10 of you waiting.

I'm an AT&T employee and can confirm the launch but obviously I can't post internal communications. Just a heads up about the appointments.

Appointments are in general. Its just something new that AT&T is doing and not necessarily for the S4. Appointment scheduling starts tomorrow 4/23.
Tell your Rep's to ask their SSR about Thursday's reset.

All internal communication points to Friday. Even the phone/tablet deal changes on Friday and a reset is scheduled for Thursday and those only happen for design/display changes or device launches, none scheduled next week. No devices have gotten to our store but they usually get to the store Wednesday or Thursday. Also in the Georgia/Carolinas market so attbrandon and I have the same info. Be sure I'll post the moment our inventory gets in either Wednesday or Thursday. A tweet sent out said 27th but our internal communications say 26th. Either way, launch is this weekend. I just don't see Saturday as plausible because since I've been here I've never seen a phone launching on a Saturday, always Friday.

To be fair to everyone else though, I do understand the confusion. I don't remember seeing this much confusion/ misdirection over launch dates for a phone in a long time so close to the launch date. Hell, I bet even with a release date this week that Mycsp won't even cover it until next week with all these mixed up dates.
Hi All
I didn't see any Walmart pre-order threads and I personally couldn't resist the $168 price and pre-ordered for three lines. I was told on the phone after I ordered that they expect it to be around May 1st before it ships. Anyone have additional info?
Am I really the only one?
I pre-ordered from walmart and only am guessing about when it might show up.

It was $168 with no tax and free shipping, but it looks like they have already raised it to $198 now.
I preordwred from Walmart as well but my line isn't eligible for upgrade until May 7. I tried moving it up but att will only do early upgrade if I buy from them

no tax on mine either, im in fl. That's one of the reasons i may stick it out and wait instead of running to the store.. because with tax included I'm saving $45 not $30 off the at&t price

Pre-ordered from Walmart here in California ($168). My buddy runs the wireless part of walmart, and says the phones will be there on the 26th (confirmed). I however can't pick mine up until the 1st (Upgrade date)

I will be patient. I will be patient. I will be patient!
Have to tell myself this every few hours. Especially as I'm reading the posts on here. I'm left wondering if people are being too hard on the phone or it's really that much of a disappointment. I know a lot has to do with preference but two things that bother me about Samsung's direction is general this time around is the locked bootloader and the bloatware added by them (not AT&T - that's expected).
C'mon Walmart, put one in my hand so I can find out for myself.
Edit:
Tried doing a chat with a rep. Seems like they still have 4/27 as the launch date. He couldn't assure anything though:
Please wait while we find an agent to assist you....
You have been connected to Mahender .
Mahender : Hi Hamzer, Thank you for contacting our chat support team of Walmart Wireless, I'll be glad to help you Save Money and Live Better.

Mahender : Thank you for the verification.
Mahender : Please allow me 3 minutes to review the order.
Hamzer 11: ok

Mahender : I appreciate your patience. Please allow me 3 more minutes to review the order.
Hamzer 11: no problem
Mahender : Thank you.
Mahender : Thank you for your patience..
Mahender : I can see that the official launch date for the Samsung Galaxy S 4 Black Mist is 4/27/2013.
Mahender : Once it becomes available in our stock, we will process the order further.
Hamzer 11: Are you able to verify that the inventory will be available for the 27th, tomorrow?
Mahender : I totally understand you.
Mahender : However, I would not be able to provide any assurance on it.
Mahender : You can contact us back tomorrow and check the order status.
Mahender : You will be notified via e-mail with the shipper's tracking number once the package leaves our distribution center. You can track your package with shipper's tracking number by visiting the website www.fedex.com/US.
